Restore the deleted scene of Darth Vader in his meditation chamber calling out to Luke as he constructs his new green lightsaber. The scene seamlessly connects the opening Death Star sequence with the Tatooine rescue sequence, which seem disconnected in the theatrical version.
Improve the pacing in the Tatooine rescue sequence. Cut the droid torture scene. Cut the song and dance routine. Cut the dancer falling through the trap door. Cut Leia haggling with Jabba over the bounty for Chewbacca. Cut the thermal detonator. Cut Leia bumping into wind chimes. Cut C-3PO warning Luke that he is standing upon a trap door. Cut the herd of Banthas. Cut the barge sailing over the sand. In general, trim the first act as much as possible.
Restore the deleted footage of Yoda confessing, “Obi-Wan would have told you long ago, had I let him.”
I didn’t realize that these scenes existed, I’m going to have to find them. They sound really interesting.
We should all try to help this Project:

If we could get the best avaible quailty scenes at all time, restored many times as time and technology improves. We could all then hopefully one day be able to cut in the scenes we personally miss into whatever Version/edit we enjoy to get the ultimate definitive personal edition we like.
