Well, in working on the saber shot I did notice a problem with the SSE. For one frame there is a little misplaced saber glow blurb spot that appears to the right of Ben as he’s handing the saber to Luke which is present in every home video release of the OOT. In the SSE, it isn’t there. I assume it was accidentally scrubbed out by their cleanup process. It saw something looked different than a frame before and a frame after, so it interpreted it as dirt and scrubbed it out. There is still evidence of it being there originally though, as even though it got rid of most of it, there is a subtle blue halo that remains in that spot on the frame.

It just makes me wonder if there are any other details like that which the SSE inadvertently got rid of.
