The only problem I have with the space slug is that it doesn't look like a cave in the slightest.
It takes Solo a while to figure it out and Leia defends the initial cave hypothesis right up to the end but the mouth doesn't look like a row of stalactites and stalagmites.
It makes our heroes seem a bit dumb.
As for the "it's a film made in the 70's" defense that holds true for a preservation.
I have no problem watching Harmy's versions and noticing the craft used making a film with almost as much vintage as myself (Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom was a screw up when it was made but ESB was the cutting edge of effects and it's few flaws are part of the historical experience of watching the film as released in 1980).
For a special edition I have no problem with changing the creature to make it look more like something that might be mistaken for a cave and less like a puppet.
That's what special editions are for.
This all the way!

Ady has said he is happy with what he has done so far I can't see a major reworking as a feature of this project.
Oh... Thought there was gonna be a new miniature slug mouth.. or something... No? I'm not good with the forums search feature and I'm not gonna go digging through hundreds of pages, but I thought that was discussed a long time ago on a page far far away...
