All of pittrek’s observations about those shots are quite correct. Some of them look really good, and some are just wacky.

Don’t forget that Star Wars was never consistent from shot to shot in terms of color. There was often considerable variation between scenes, and sometimes even in the middle of scenes. Using references from one part of the movie to correct unrelated shots may end up yielding results pretty far from what they should be. It looks like that is what has happened here.

The shots that do look good are pretty amazing, so it’s worth rethinking the others until they all reach this same level.
