What I posted earlier about King Kong and Casablanca is applicable to scenes, like the Han & Jabba scene, which - contrary to the director's intent - ended up on the cutting room floor ... to the director's regret and the film's improvement.
Few people claim the SE's (of whichever vintage) ruined Star Wars, but many (me among them) claim they are inferior to the original ... and many (me among claim) claim that supressing the originals (OMG to the point of "permanently altering" the negative) is an abuse of cinema history ... and I might add a vile performance of stewardship.
