TPM Jabba has always bothered me. Why is he so grey? :D I know LD and DVD had the weird pink tint. Blu-Ray kinda fixed it but made Jabba look even worse :P He's obviously green in ROTJ and the animators know that. I don't believe he was aways like that in TPM. I found one picture (probably some kind of promo pic) from Google [...]

For the record, that's how he looks in the videogame: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGp1R6qJDhk&feature=youtu.be&t=924

[...] I'm pretty sure they had no, uh, fire-trucking clue which file they were supposed to be rendering Naboo from!! It was a flipping lucky-dip each time!!

Yeah, I remeber the staff saying in ROTS's commetaries that it was hard to re-open the old models' files because they had become obsolete.

Here's a quick compare of a shot that was changed slightly for the bluray. More endless tinkering from Lucas.

I like how brightness and sharpening make the CGI look better than in the blu-ray :D
