ROTJ V 2.5

All the new shots in the Rancor pit from the Workprint totally don’t match. They are all much darker and much more green. Could they be taken from the HDTV broadcast? My memory is that fix was not done in 1997, but in 2004. Best would be a custom matte done along the edges of the Rancor just to return the hard matte line. As it stands they are totally jarring. (Although I will admit this is one of two fixes George did which I was happy about. The other was when Obi Wan’s lightsaber lost its glow being pointed towards camera in ANH).
