Thanks for the tip. I've edited my comment to remove the things I was talking about.

To be honest, I was merely pointing out the (very few) instances where I felt the recompositing stood out enough to jar me out of my movie-watching trance. I watched the movies a lot when I was younger but have certainly not watched them often since the special editions made their debuts and wasn't really questioning the "authenticity" of the shots because I don't have the knowledge (any longer) to make me an authority. Nonetheless, I noticed a couple of places (in Jedi in particular) where Harmy must have made choices that while not reverting to the originals were simply "a good choice" in terms of making the picture look good while getting rid of as much of the special edition crap as possible and I'm in favor of that in general.

The version of SW I watched was version 2.0. It was truly magical.
