I mean all of the original deleted scenes are well documented from the original triology and covered in detail on the net if you know where to look. Yet i and many of the people i know had no idea that Luke had 2 runs in his X-Wing down the Death Star Trench before he destroyed the thing. Or that Darth Vaders Tie-Advanced was spinning out of the trench before Luke turns off his targeting computer to take the final shot.
I can understand why the sequence was edited as it was (to add pace and urgencey to the scene), and the full cut seems a whole lot slower paced, yet now, when i watch the battle from the official editions things dont make sence anymore and just doesn't sit right.
