No, it will stay the way it is here. It's a reverse shot of Chewie from later in the scene. I always said I was gonna have to do that in order to remove the stupid added shot of Boba Fett flirting with the SE dancers. I did it exactly like this in the PDE and I think it works really well. In the ROTJ DVD Reconstruction I decided to use the GOUT shot and it stands out like a sore thumb even at DVD resolution, because that particular shot looks like crap in the GOUT. I experimented with only using Jabba from GOUT for the missing part but the quality difference is so huge that it just wouldn't work.

 Good work sticking to your guns Harmy. Folks seem to get a little nervous when you make command decisions like this (myself included), but you have proven time and time again that you're judgment is impeccable. I was so nervous about the color timing with ANH, but when I saw the final product on my tv, I was blown away with the accuracy. I agree with your call here, the integrity of the picture quality trumps such a small discrepancy.
