Just fuming about it because I was just reminded of it while doing my edit and having to take the time to replace footage from another source just for this. I’m sure it’s been talked about already but…

The cgi Doug in jabbas palace. JUST. FUCKING. WHY. It’s not that it technically looks bad it’s just the timing (oh everybody’s sleeping… Except this guy!). If they wanted to add him to a different shot that had other (awake) creatures I wouldn’t have really cared… But I would still wonder why.

My guess: simply for distraction. Lucas wants the audience to look on the left side of the scene because on the right side are the backround actors sleeping in an ‘unconvincing’ (=sitting) position.
