Seriously for two seconds (leaving our mission statement to one side) the SEs should be preserved somehow in all there forms but if George is to keep doing this shit again (and lets face it he will) the very least he could do is do it well.
The various levels of scribble are a real miss match of nice 1970's models, mattes, puppets and masks with mid nineties CGI cartoon and a reverseable head mask, mid-naughties CGI cartoon and CGI scribbles of the decade, colours all over the place, previous imperfections pasted over rather addressed etc.
The net effect is a patchwork of bits and pieces poorly glued together that don't match.
He really should just start from scratch next time.
Script all these changes so they make sense, restore the original version and clean up all the matte lines etc and then put consistent new effects to blend in with the original material.
You know...like Adywan does.
An SE is not the same thing as the original version.
When I watch a film from a particular decade I expect to see the film for what it is but the SEs are looking like a once fine looking lady after way too many visits to a series of bad cosmetic surgeons.
