I just read this in an article about the DVDs menus in SW Insider (I believe this was on the official site). It's a quote by Van Ling regarding a tricky loop for the ESB DVD menu's AT-AT...

Additionally, Ling points out that it would have been just as easy to create a CG version of the walker, but that wouldn't hold true to the film's medium. "These are the original, time-less films, and we wanted the menus to reflect that."

First of all...what?

Lucas has had no problem using CG to "enhance" the films, so what is Ling really talking about? Also, he claims that they are the original films...not quite.

Finally, if they're so "timeless", then why have they been altered since 1997? Blast it!
