Yeah, exactly. I never noticed the garbage mattes around the TIE fighters (or even knew what that term meant until I took Film Editing) until I watched the 2004 DVDs. I can't see them in any other so-called "inferior" version. Don't get me wrong. I don't want them removed. It just seems pretty silly how much George wants his definitive vision and fix up the special effects that he felt didn't live up to his expectations, but he made his "flaws" more obvious in the process. I want the comfort of knowing they're there, but I don't want them as obvious as they were in the DVDs, because that's not how they looked in the original release either.

EDIT: Plus, like I said in another thread, the less they try to "fix", the less chance there will be of them screwing up and getting us pissed off.
