My cutlist would go something like this:
- get rid of the first jealous Han scene, then trim the second one (“He wasn’t I can feel it” Han looks confused “He’s my brother.”)
- dump a bunch of 3PO’s “captain obvious” lines
- tone down Ewok cutesiness
- give Boba Fett a better death scene, or just cut/roto him out of the movie
- cut the music number - we go straight from the dungeon to the reveal of Boushh and Chewie
- the stuff SSWR suggested with the Endor arrival
- beakless Sarlacc (the beak just screams '90s CGI)
- maybe restore the lightsaber-building deleted scene
- do some reorganizing of the battle scenes
- end at the pyre scene, with Luke seeing Anakin’s spirit (mixing ROTS and other Hayden roles for the desired footage - or Shaw, really depends on TROS edits)
The most important cut for me, IMO:
- get rid of the crying Rancor keeper - I’ve hated it since I first watched the movie and would be happy to see it gone
