#THROWBACKTHURSDAY: REMEMBER ROGUE WAS NOT THE FIRST!


#THROWBACKTHURSDAY: Remember when the younger Tarkin played by Wayne Pygram appeared in Star Wars Revenge Of The Sith. Just like the recent CGI Tarkin in #ROGUEONE, the balloon went up, and the cries of disapproval went out!


TRIVIA: This make up work was carried out by Oscar winner Dave Elsey, who many years ago, was a fully paid up, corresponding member of PCAS back in the 1970's and 80s! Elsey has worked on a number of famous projects such as Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Candyman, Alien 3 and many more, eventually winning an Oscar with Rick Baker for The Wolfman in 2010.

#TOOCOOLTUESDAY: LIKE FOR LIKE?


#TOOCOOLTUESDAY: Ok we have debated this inside out, upside down... but when you look at the #TARKIN / Cushing CGI from #ROGUEONE it is what it is. If this was a piece of art work, a sketch and photoshop result, it's not bad, the problem is when you animate it....For all the effort that the effects ROGUE team undertook, they should be awarded for that, don't you think? CGI ON THE LEFT!

#MONSTERMONDAY: DARTH VADER


#MONSTERMONDAY: He's been called the ultimate baddie, the bad guy's, bad guy! The most evil force in the Star wars universe! He is probably all those things... plus for us, he is another character from the dark-side of the Peter Cushing filmography... Cushing having appeared with him in #STARWARS as the other black-hat, Grand Moff Tarkin. Together they made quite the team, making knees tremble, planets explode and giving audiences down the years, much to boo at... even if he did receive redemption at the end...and that is why today we celebrate, and bestow our #monstermonday crown, to #DARTHVADER, a FORCE to be reckoned with indeed!

MORE ON TARKIN CGI, GUY HENRY AND ILM BEHIND THE SCENES


#GETTHECUSHIONITSCUSHING: Here's a NEW interview with Industrial Light and Magic's Brian Cantwell and Paige Warner, sharing their stories behind the creation of Tarkin and Princess Leia... some great behind the scenes footage too!

 
ACTOR #GUYHENRY, who helped bring the CGI #TARKIN to the screen in #ROGUEONE said this during his time in preparation for the role: '“It’s been bloody frightening, I can tell you,” Henry says, “I mean, it’s Star Wars!”  “I’m gleaning everything I can from Cushing’s portrayal of him,” Henry explained.  “I’m not a mimic, I’m not an impressionist. It’ll be…an essence, I think, of the way Peter Cushing might have approached it. I want to feel I can get within spitting distance, at least, of the task ahead. It’s very daunting, actually, to try and be a famous character in the original film. And also to emulate an actor that I myself admire.”

ADAM NIMOY ON CUSHING CGI IN ROGUE ONE 'A GREAT IDEA FOR SPOCK'!


OPINION? I had the pleasure to watch Adam Nimoy's documentary about his father, Leonard last night. 'For The Love Of Spock' is an intelligent, frank and loving tribute and well worth catching, even of you are not a Trek fan.


YESTERDAY, Adam during a promotional interview for a Deep Space Nine documentary, Adam shared his thoughts on Peter Cushing's CGI appearance in 'ROGUE ONE'...and shared what some may think is a controversial opinion on his father's legacy.... I have shared the quote below. I am a Nimoy fan, not particularly for his portrayal of Spock, I liked the man's style and his core values in life. But, this made me think too...Are you thinking?? If so, please share 😉


'Adam Nimoy, the director of the upcoming Deep Space Nine documentary, was asked how he would feel if Leonard Nimoy was digitally added to the upcoming CBS show Star Trek: Discovery, or the fourth film in the rebooted movie franchise. Nimoy said he was more than open to the idea. He said was impressed with how Rogue One brought back Grand Moff Tarkin, and would enjoy seeing his father given the same treatment...


“Yeah I think it’s an interesting idea. I loved what they did in Rogue One. I thought it was pretty clever, and I was blown away by it, frankly. All of the stuff that Peter Cushing was doing was mind-boggling to me. I’m a sucker for that stuff. I think it should certainly be explored, but I’m not the final arbiter as to whether it’s going to happen, but I think it’s a great idea, personally.” 


IT MIGHT NOT make sense to bring Leonard Nimoy’s Spock back in the rebooted film series, since he already received a respectful send-off in Star Trek: Beyond after the actor’s death in 2015. However, there is a case to be made for Discovery, since it takes place while Spock was serving under Commander Pike on the Enterprise. Unfortunately, it might take awhile for that to happen. Television shows typically have smaller budgets than feature films, and Rogue One producer John Knoll said the process of reviving Tarkin on-screen was expensive and time-consuming.

ROGUE ONE BLU RAY DVD AND 3D CONTENTS REVEALED : TRAILER : CASES ART WORK


NEWS: ROGUE ONE BLU RAY CONTENTS REVEALED AND TRAILER! And the line up of the contents sound good too! Can't wait to own this one. What do YOU think of the contents???


THE STAR WARS stand-alone has earned more than $1 billion at the box office. Disney has revealed that Rogue One will hit Digital HD on March 24 and Blu-ray on April 4th. There are a very large helping of bonus features, but a few of the more intriguing ones include "Epilogue: The Story Continues," which is billed as the cast and crew looking forward to the Star Wars tales to come, and "Rogue Connections," which looks at the film's Easter eggs.

AS WE HOPED, there also is a featurette examining the visual effects that went into resurrecting Peter Cushing's Grand Moff Tarkin and brought back a young Princess Leia (The late Carrie Fisher). Rogue One earned more than $1 billion worldwide at the box office, including $528.8 million in the U.S. The second Star Wars stand-alone movie, about a young Han Solo, will be released in May 2018.

TOTALLY TARKIN? : GO COMPARE


SPOILERS: #GETTHECUSHIONITSCUSHING! 'Suddenly all heads turn as Commander Tagge's speech is cut short and the Grand Moff Tarkin, governor of the imperial outland regions, enters. He is followed by his powerful ally,The Sith Lord, Darth Vader. All of the generals stand and bow before the thin, evil-looking governor as he takes his place at the head of the table. The Dark Lord stands behind him.' 


THAT IS HOW, George Lucas outlined the entrance and desciption of Peter Cushing's Grand Moff Tarkin in the script of #STARWARS (1977) There can be few roles that Cushing played that were so ruthless and evil, on such a grand scale? Here's a chance to see BOTH cinematic TARKIN'S. Personally, I think we have yet to get to the point of the CGI being flawless..but this will do for me. BOTH are quite amazing, for different reasons. Maybe things in the industry will never be the same, I think it's an interesting tool, and how wonderful, that this first step on such a grand scale, will always be associated with Peter Cushing.....
