I recall some discussion of a tool for generating C-3PO dialogue earlier this year, and realized that there’s one place in this edit where it could really come in handy. When the Resistance is discussing the Starkiller’s target, 3PO says ‘Without the Republic fleet, we’re doomed!’ This works well in the original film, but in the edit it feels like a bit of a non sequitur. A better line would speak to the question of Hal and others regarding evacuation of Hosnian Prime, namely why the Resistance didn’t even try to request an evacuation. I’m imagining a conversation like this:

Leia: “The First Order. They’re charging the weapon now. The Senate is the target.”
Poe: “The Hosnian system.”
C-3PO: “And a full evacuation would take weeks…if not longer!”
Han: “Okay, so how do we blow it up? There’s always a way to do that.”
Leia: “Han’s right.”

Something like this would be pretty well in keeping with the style of the film, acknowledging the difficulty then shifting to the dramatic action alternative.

JEDIT: “And the Senate is unlikely to order a full evacuation!”
