The pod race went on too long in its theatrical version. And I was appalled to find out that it had originally been much longer. But I was even more shocked to find them admitting that the longer pod race was too boring only to have them say, "But we added a lot of this back for the DVD." Dumbest thing ever...

And I do agree that the Jabba stuff went on a little bit too long, but it does fit into the plot, it does show off Luke's skill and leadership abilities, and Leia... well, I needn't say anymore, do I?
