I just watched the editted version of the movie and was absolutely disgusted by the freaky beast that they added. What is that thing? It looks like the biggest freak of nature ever.... It's in the Mos Eisley scene, and I believe it rears and breaks away from it's owner. The thing is haunting me.
Maybe it's not added, maybe it's just an outtake they threw back in, but I'm reasonably sure I have never seen it before. _________________ )2eady? "A Royale with cheese"

I've always thought that it's one of the coolest creatures in ANH. _________________ Brickshelf|Majhost.com

Man, every time I saw it I couldn't figure out what I was looking at (Could be partially because I had just watched all of the prequals) The pics on the internet are a little more flattering than the CG in the movie. _________________ )2eady? "A Royale with cheese"

For those too lazy to look it up, this is a Ronto.
And I don't think it's that hideous. Might just be that internet pics are more flattering, as Paul said, but I don't believe it's the biggest freak of nature ever. _________________

Didn't ILM just use a modified version of the brachiosaurus model from Jurassic Park to make the Ronto in the Special Edition of ANH? Either way, it sure looks like it. I don't consider the creature ugly, but the antics of the obviously fake Jawas on its back always make me sick.
Also, I consider the CG change to the dianoga's eye to be just as heinous. _________________

Paul, were you watching the movies sober? That might have something to do with it. I mean, us normal people don't think it's that's freaky. _________________

The reason for that is because this change is only on the Special Edition DVDs, another change ol' George authorized before releasing the films on that format. Here are some pictures of the original and altered dianogas: Old and New. _________________
