How practical/doable is it for them to re-use the 2004 source, but correct something like the lightsabers? And by "practical" I mean on the LFL scale of effort and quality control, not the normal scale everyone else has to go by.
You mean how easy would it be? Well, look at SW Revisited. I mean, if a single guy in England can do all that in his spare time using his home PC and commercial software...come on. Basically, fixing the lightsabers involves bringing the shots into something like dinky Aftereffects and rotoscoping a mask to change the hue and brightness. I mean, 12 year olds do lightsaber effects for their fan films right? It's never been a question of doability, really, it's a very simply fix.
