Have a ton of small spaceships leaving Cloud City to cover the Falcon’s escape as the evacuation proceeds. The cloud cars hold off the TIE fighters while they rescue Luke, but are destroyed after buying them just enough time.

They were meant to have been chased the whole time as soon ad they took off. The shot where the falcon does a loop turn through the clouds was meant to have tie fighters flying at it. It is in the comic book. Like playing chicken with the tie fighters and they dispersed to avoid a collision.

The other one like this is Leia Han and 3p0 being chased through echo base. (Forget about the Wampa door) There is one shot of storm troopers running from deleted scenes this is then followed by the scene where 3p0 is pulled through the door. On that shot the laser bolts are missing but the squibs are going off all around him as he is pulled through the door. Then when 3p0 gets to the ramp the sound mix fades off completely only to leave the music. This was to hide the sounds of the lasers going past the ramp he runs up and again the lasers are missing. Then we have the shot of the falcon failing engines. This should be the shot of the stormtroopers entering the hanger. It is exactly the same length in frames as the static picture of the falcon. The Static picture was an insert to make it seem they were not being chased and shot at!

Now also when Han says “this baby’s still got a few sutprises” we have the gun appear immediately.

Basically it’s all there more or less but because elements are missing our perception of what is hsppening on screen changes and how we see the film is been skewed on these 2 counts.
