So funny. I'm watching that SE documentary from the thread I linked to before and when they talk about the snow battle, they show you the shot from inside the cockpit of Luke's speeder flying under the AT-AT from the original version and point out how it's transparent and then go on to talk about how they recomped all those shots in a computer and "eliminated all the transparency" and then they show you the same shot from the SE, which is darker and bluer but just as transparent as the original. Heck of a job there (on both the SE and the doc) :-D

And perhaps the funnies thing is when they say that the ultimate goal of the Jabba scene was to make it look like Jabba was there on that set and they just photographed it. Comic gold :-)
