I’ve noticed something during the start of the film…
Ok so when C3PO says “there will be no escape for the princess this time” or in the case of Revisted “There will be no escape this time” immediately after this is said 3P0 says “What’s that?” and looks up, however the star destroyer is not yet overhead.
If you notice also the music is the same as later when the troops are looking about.
I think this is an editing goof.
The scene order should be 3P0 “no escape this time”
EXT space: The star destroyer fly’s overhead the Tantive
3P0 “what’s that?” looks up hears sound of being clamped in.
To do the sequence like this means that some footage would be lost but it would at least make sense why 3P0 says “what’s that?” to actually being clamped in by the star destroyer rather than before the star destroyer is even close enough to do just that.
Just thinking about the time discrepancy that would also create to lose "what’s that shot in it’s current position, Could this be that unused still shot of the tantive IV model facing camera perhaps a shadow growing over it or something? Anyway I will leave that one with you as it’s a bad goof.
One more big goof is in the build up to the Battle of Yavin.
Luke “Red 5 standing by”
RDD2 is shown beeping and the wings are in attack position.
Gold Leader “Put S-foils in attack position”
Did Luke disobey orders?
That shot of R2D2 is a bad goof I swapped it with a shot from Empire with R2D2 out the back window cockpit matches up too.
Have a good one 😃
