It was so great to see the original Jabba's palace dance scene again, even though sadly the only way to make the scene look better at this point is to get some kind of film source since every SE release has not included any of the original musical scene.

Considering how good the film-sourced footage in Star Wars 2.5 and ESB 2.0 looks, and how well Harmy made it integrate with everything else, I'm not worried.

 yes me neither, I just wasn't sure how hard it is to find film prints; if he could get his hands on film-sourced footage for Jedi then he could kill two birds with one stone: Jabba's palace song as well as Sebastian Shaw's eyebrows, since both of those scenes were mangled by the first Special Edition (not just Shaw's eyebrows but his skin color was turned grey as well). I guess the sarlac pit could be upgraded with film-sourced footage too, but honestly I thought the sarlac looked pretty great in the current DE for Jedi. Really the only noticeable sarlac shot was when Luke is standing over it right after Jabba say's "move him into position."
