Morning Watch is a recurring feature that highlights a handful of notable videos from across the web. They can be video rehearsals, fan-made productions, resources, short films, hilarious skits or anything that has to do with our favorite movies and TV shows.
In this edition, watch the digitally aged Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker at the end of the second season of The Mandalorian do a DeepFake makeover to improve some of your shortcomings. Also, take a look at the planning for the intense fighting choreography and acrobatics of the third season of Star Trek: Discovery. Finally, if you are looking for the perfect digital fire to give your 2020 vacation the right environment, then NetflixThe fire from your trash is covered.
First, even with the return of Luke Skywalker at the end of the second season of The Mandalorian it was a big surprise, it left some fans a little disappointed with the execution. Although Industrial Light and Magic can produce some impressive visual effects, this digitally aged Mark Hamill sometimes looks a lot like a video game character, so YouTuber Shamook created a DeepFake to enhance it. Sometimes the head looks a little separate from the body, but the face works infinitely better.
Then CBS All Access has Star Trek: Discovery stunt coordinator Christopher McGuire takes you behind the scenes of season three to reveal the work needed to prepare fight sequences with Michelle Yeoh. But beware of spoilers from the third season, if you are not up to date, because this feature does not hide any of the secrets that may arise.
Finally, 2020 is the epitome of a dumpster fire, so Netflix made it official by making a digital Christmas record video where a dumpster flashes in an abandoned alley somewhere. Honestly, it’s a little comforting, and there’s no better way to enjoy the mediocre vacation we’re having thanks to the coronavirus pandemic. Whatever you are doing this season, we hope you have a happy and safe holiday.
