Whoa, whoa, whoa. You just simmer down there mister. You can't blame Jedi for the shit that came after it. You might as well blame ESB for producing the Yoda the flying squirrel character of the PT because the first appearence of Yoda was in Empire Strikes Back.
Yes, it gets Han back so that he can stand around and do nothing for the rest of the film.
I will admit that most of Han's Character development happned during ESB, but at least he didn't back peddle.
Isn't Jabba's place filled with shady individuals? Wouldn't it make sense that maybe one of them knew something about a new Death Star?

And shaddy characters don't = emperial spies. I don't think that the Bloods and Crypts know much about the strategies of Middle Eastern affairs or when they will strike us next.
Why does the deflector shield have to be dropped on the Death Star so that the shuttle can land on Endor?

The Rebel fleet 5 minutes behind the Shuttle? Hell that shield would have been down and then up again in 5 seconds. To even get near the bunker the shield would have to come down. It may not have a planetary radius, but it's no pin-point either.
The Emperor is a cackling buffoon.

The emperor a buffoon? Maybe not the most brilliant military strategist, but I sure as hell wouldn't want to be at his darkside mercy.

ROTJ may not be as fantastic as ESB, but it sure as hell isn't a bad movie. It even has some of the most powerful music in the whole movie.
