Well, I would assume so. Speaking of the Holiday Special, I recall something about how Lucas allowed a documentary filmmaker to have access to the original copy of the Holiday Special back in '04. If the Holiday Special (something I can assure you Lucas hated more than the OOT) was still in watchable condition after 25 years, I'm sure the original parts of the negative cut out for the SE are in a bit better condition then some people may think.

I take it the Holiday Special was shot on film, then?

It looks like it was shot on videotape, probably 1 or 2" 525 line NTSC Quad. You can tell by the "live" look the production has, and most variety stuff was done on videotape. The only stuff shot on film was the stock footage from Star Wars. SD is the best the medium will give you. It can be upconverted, but it won't look any better.

It would easily fit on the extras disc of Star Wars '77.

Additional Info: In this pic you can easily see the the camera was a videotape one, not film.

The Ewok movies were shot on 35mm film, the Ewok Adventure even got a theatrical release in Germany. So they are ripe for a HD remaster and release.
