The same goes for the garbage mattes around the TIE fighters in the shoot out with the Falcon scene in A NEW HOPE.  There's no excuse.

I've noticed that when I watch Star Wars (A New Hope my ass --- it was Star Wars when it made a zillion dollars and revolutionized Hollywood, so Lucas can stuff his revisionist crap) on TV the garbage mattes are there, but not the times I saw it theatrically. There are all kinds of complicated reasons given for this, but you'd think with all the "enhancement" they're doing they could clean this problem up.

And speaking of wonky mattes, look at some of the composites in Jackson's Kong --- and with today's technology he has no excuse.
