Yeah the first version had Jabba gone, but I realized it’s not consistent with the overall sensibility that one would have already seen the OT while watching the PT (which the films themselves clearly share). The first version was watched with a relative who’d never seen SW and was young, so I think that biased me toward tucking Jabba away as a surprise.
And the commentary tracks I have manually adjusted sync with subsequent versions so there are a few things like that which don’t match.
Hi Hal, I would love a link to your prequel edits. Thank you!
