I considered both cutting the celebration, and using the Endor scene, and an early version did both, but the Endor scene really doesn’t feel like an intro, it feels like it’s in the middle of a movie. And the celebration, I’m still a little on the fence. I like the scene and feel like it wraps stuff up, but it also feels like extra stuff.
Maybe just shorten the celebration like Spence did. Just have one shot panning down from the fireworks, then cut to Vader’s funeral
