I'm really looking foward to TESB 97SE comparisons.

It will be interesting to see if Vader has a pink lightsaber when he points at Luke while he is next to the Carbon Freezing Chamber pit - that part in the 2004 SE looked horrible.

Also, another thing that would be interesting to compare, is whether the blue tint on planet hoth is similar when comparing 97 SE and 2004 SE.

Can't wait!
It's not that kind of comparison. I'm trying to limit it to deliberate changes, not transfer mistakes other than random examples. I'm thinking they didn't recomposite the sabers in every shot, which is why Vader's saber is pink in 2004 as they just went back to the 1997 film and messed with the colors. So far, that looks to be what happened.

There are some shots where the lightsabers have been redone, you can tell because they actually have a core. The slomo fight has cores and has been redone. The tauntaun slicing has no core and apparently has not been redone.
