Yeah makes sense.  And as you can't see the jumpy spot the quote mentions when the Stormtroopers enter, this is probably the case.  But there's that .001% chance that he's mixing up some details.  And maybe attributing it to Burtt, for the time being, will make someone bring up the real story behind these things.

So are they rips or burns?  Is undeveloped film orange in color, could these be undeveloped areas?  A film imperfection.  Probably not, the shape is more something would come about from stress.

Updated the page: http://fd.noneinc.com/Glitch/starwars-tantiveorangeerrors/starwars-tantiveorangeerrors.html  added the 'no orange items' category, figured out some sources and added a few other titles.

As these errors re-emerge as they began SE work, guess they dug up maybe the print which was used for the '77 16mm and that copy became the base for the early '90s home video versions?

Did the same thing happen in 1995?  The widescreen Faces cap, there's some sign of the errors but in the Full Screen i'm not sure.

Problem is i'm using some HTML5 code which not all the browsers have accepted yet.  For instance Firefox will blow up the image when scrolled over but not smoothly.  Chrome will do it smoothly to see the full size images.  And i'm guessing IE might not accept the jQuery expansion/hiding code...
