considering the movie rendering probably cost hundreds of thousands or more, vs. like a few seconds on someone's janky laptop, I'm kind of floored. it really makes the nasty video game quality of the original apparent.
once this AI rendering stuff gets sufficiently polished, they won't need to hire Alden Ehrenreich and give him acting lessons for the next prequel. they'll just hire some nobody to wear the vest, and slap Ford's youthful visage on him as easily as a dollar store halloween mask.

That was actually one of George Lucas' dreams, they tried to do it in ROTS in the fight scene between Palpatine and Windu, as Ian isn't a really physical guy or a sword fighting guy. He did film some of the close up stuff, but a lot of the more physical stuff, I think they had Nick Gillard step in and put Ian's face on it.
While I was writing this a Robot Chicken Skit of the aftermath of the fight just came on and I have to put this quote here.
