So, new issue: Has it ever been decided what's up with the scanlines being different on different releases?

Those damn scanlines again... it's a very good question Harmy. I recall seeing them on some 35mm sources but it's interesting that you say that there are no traces whatsoever of such elements on the IB print. My theory was that the low-res quality of the LD transfers tended to exaggerate the effects of them, just see the examples I posted a few pages back with the binocular shot in ESB. But with your statement I now don't know what's going on, how does it appear on Puggo's 16mm transfers? It's a little mystery alright, in ESB the SE broadcasts clearly displays the scanlines on the Emperor for example and I believe Puggo mentioned they are visible on his 16mm transfer as well, so this cannot just be resolution related. Maybe -1 can provide a short video sample from their prints?

Are those the only shots we've noticed so far?

No, I noticed a few more in the cantina since I posted those three, I can post the rest of them if you're interested.
