It was clearly a rushjob, cause even back in 1997 this was no "state of the art" GC imagery. This scene should never had gone in the Special Edition in the first place. I liked the mystery surrounding "this Jabba character" originally and he ofcourse had his time in the Return Of The Jedi full and proper IMO. This is one thing Lucas knew back in the late 70´s and early 80´s that it´s often much more effective NOT to show things. Like for example I also liked much better when we didn´t see the Wampa creature in ESB. Was more suspensful and better moviemaking than the "you HAVE to see and know everything right away" method he seems to adopt these days. It´s ofcourse because the geezer is getting old and gives in to his belief that the "kids" have to be able to figure "everything" out. No mystery!
