ESB:

1. The probes launching is a recomp. The pods are slightly rearranged/timed.
Just double-checked, splitscreen shows them frame-by-frame to be in exactly the same positions

Whups. Was going by memory of 13-year-old comparisons. Usually my memory is perfect, as I DEFINITELY remember seeing the Anchorhead footage in the theater! ;)

I already have them as what is currently 266-268.

I am also flawlessly observant. ;)

Which shots of Vader looking out the window, there are a few.

I'd have to look again...

1. The Treadwell site says:
For some reason, this shot of Artoo turning his head to look at us (the shot is a POV of the camera-arm-thing that pops out of the door to Jabba's Palace) is shorter in the SE. The two versions go immediately out of synch with that shot. Weird.

I haven't checked the 2004. This is not a reel change point, as that just happened between the matte painting shot of the droids and the studio shot of them approaching the doors. I think the SE did something (or RE-did something) to Artoo's eye to hide light shining through it, and I guess their source element turned out to be shorter.
2004 timing is identical to the GOUT at this point. I can't tell with the 97SE, but they look the same to me.

I caught this using either the Japanese SE laserdisc or the widescreen '97 SE VHS tape (I forget), and the Definitive LD. Maybe the timing was put back for 2004, or maybe the reel change really was at that point (I haven't cross-referenced the data on the reel change thread) and it thus varies, or maybe just a glitch in the home video production realm. Perhaps an oddity not worth documenting.
