[post_page_title]Star Wars: A New Hope – Young Jabba[/post_page_title]
No, that’s not a typo. Jabba was in (one edition) of A New Hope. If you didn’t know that – oh, how we envy you. Originally, the enormous slug-like Hutt appears in 1983’s Return of the Jedi. Back then, it was a one-ton puppet that took George Lucas’ special effects wizards three months and $500,000 to create. You know how they say, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”? Lucas doesn’t.
He began tinkering with the original trilogy ahead of its 1997 rerelease. Among many other awful changes, he restored a previously cut scene to New Hope showing Han Solo’s first encounter with Jabba – this time rendered in CGI that today looks like it was taken from a Nintendo 64 game.
