Actually it's the 2004 dvd released versions that are running on Cinemax in HD. Watching them is still awesome in HD even with all the changes. I just try to ignore those when I see them.

Okay, now I'm lost! The HD screenshots of the restored Jabba-Solo Hangar scene from Episode IV seems to be taken from the 1997 SE version. The 2004 SE Jabba looks bad, the 1997 SE Jabba looks even worse and I believe the screenshots are from the worst looking Jabba (aka, the 1997 SE version). But, I could be mistaking.
If either of these two versions receive the HD treatment, it makes one seriously wonder if the OOT will ever see a DVD or HD (on Blu-ray and/or HD-DVD) release ...
