I was watching RotJ the other night and remembered a few parts of the movie I took at face value as a kid (1983-1995) and only realized what was going on the first time I really watched them (November 1995, when I got the Faces VHS set).

Luke's Message: When 3PO says "R2, you're playing the wrong message!" I seriously thought that R2 had indeed played the wrong message.  It didn't really occur to me why I would think that Luke had recorded two messages to Jabba.

Yoda's Race: When Yoda says "When 900 years old you reach, look as good you will not!" I took that to mean that Yoda was just an extremely old human, and if Luke lived to be 900 he would look exactly like Yoda.

Anyone else young enough to have misconceptions like mine?
