Well they used the scans from 1997 for both DVD and Blu-Ray release (that is scans with added changes). I guarantee you that they didn't scan and restore it again in 2011.

Of course they didn't restore it in 2011, that's what a lot of us are complaining about. The DID restore it in 2004 though, and as Lowry stated, that restoration was never meant for anything higher than DVD resolution. And unfortunately it shows in a lot of the shots. So...

And if you look at the picture quality of Blu-Ray release you can get the idea that the scans were high quality. :)

... I would argue with that.

The '97 SE work was partly done in 2K whereas the new scan in 2004 was done in 1080p.

Just a reminder, 2K and 1080p is pretty much the same resolution.
