What kind of Mandela effect shit is this?
I’ve spent more time than I would like to admit trying to fact check this. I swear when the special editions came out one of the behind the scenes was about restoring the scene with the fur coat Jabba that had appeared in the first pre-title-crawl version. Now all I can find are references to it being rereleased at least 4 times before the special edition but nothing about scene edits.
As I understand it the original jabba scene where never in any release. It was recorded but scraped during editing.
Ok so you’re mixing up a couple things. No, the original theatrical version did not have the scene at all. But it was filmed with Ford, just left on the editing floor. They took that footage and did mediocre cgi to add in the too-small jabba for the special editions
