I guess Mos Eisley angered me the most. They turned a musty old spaceport into Disneyland.

I mean, what if they went in and replaced the original King Kong with a "better" CGI Kong? Would it still be the 1933 classic? No, it would be some sort of wierd concept project - which is exactly what the SE is. And it shows.

I personally don't have a problem with erasing matte lines and garbage mattes. My reasoning is that they were never intended to be seen, and the picture quality improves with digital compositing. I agree with you about CGI animation, though. It shouldn't be in there at all. In general, I'm not a fan of digital animation in live-action films, even new films.
