When R2 plays Luke’s holographic message to Jabba, Luke’s lightsaber is shown clipped to the right side of his body. Then before the message ends a brief shot of Luke’s hologram is visible showing his lightsaber clipped to the left side of his body indicating that in all previous shots of Luke before the one with the message ending, Luke’s holographic image was flipped.
NOTE: In the film Luke keeps his lightsaber clipped to the left side of his body (this is also true in TESB).
Good call Tantive3+1
Those flipped shots of Luke really bugged me at the time as his hair parting was on the wrong side which stood out to me more.
Makes you wonder how a “small” detail like a massive hologram of one of the main characters got through in the first place
