So here's something I noticed recently. On the DVD, one of the interactive menus (god how I hate them) shows the binary sunset:

This has of course been digitally chopped and manipulated, but parts of it bear strong resemblance to Mike Verta's tech scan. It is very different from the GOUT, and even from the ACTUAL DVD IT CLAIMS TO REPRESENT!

It even shows the picture of the menu on the back of the box, as if they were embarrassed to actually show what the scene looked like:

It would seem that Lucasfilm knew precisely the quality of the product they were producing. I am guessing that the menus of the other movies, and the other menus for this one contain elements that are better than in their respective movie versions.

Does anyone know why this disparity between the menus and the movie happened?
