Oh, geez, really?! Even in television they can't resist the urge to fuck with what they've already done?! Can anybody in Lucasfilm not tinker with their work?!

Well its not exactly unrecedented for them to go back and reanimate scenes for dvd that were rushed. It is done in anime dvd releases all the time.

When dealing with animated cgi it could be re-rendering or adding more elements explosions etc. Make directors cuts of episodes that were shortened for time on dvd due to advertising or content.

Some of the earlier episodes and the movie could be entirely redone they were done in a lower quality than the rest of the season once the animators got their feet wet and figured things out. The characters started out like clay or wooden in their movements, over time they have tried to make improvements.

Almost unheard of at lucasfilm these days. They made the animation of a higher standard after complaints and tried to make the later scripts more solid, or truer to the spirit of the original films. It is no secret filoni is a massive fan of the originals. I bet you anything he would be just as happy to do an animated series featuring Luke, Han, and Leia. But he must do what his boss wants.

I think they almost made the Genddy series movie like by taking out the mojority of the recaps.

I know because i have the second dvd release of the genddy series and a fan preservation and the fan one has the original opening and closing segments and previews for the next episodes.
