Star Wars Rogue One: 20 WTF Moments
1. CGI Grand Moff Tarkin
And finally, by far the movie's most WTF moment is the peculiar decision to prominently feature Grand Moff Tarkin in the film, with his face recreated from distractingly sub-par CGI, while Guy Henry does an admittedly amazing job of replicating Tarkin's voice.
Though the scenes shot in low-light in which Tarkin speaks to Krennic are basically fine, Gareth Edwards oddly chooses a lot of close-ups which only emphasise the distracting uncanny valley effect of the CGI.
Again, much like the attempt to create a period-appropriate Leia, it just isn't up to the required standard to be convincing, but may well set an unsettling precedent moving forward.
