Indeed, that’s what I remember as well or at least after the film that’s what I remember people talking about. During the movie the sound of the film was pretty over-powering, but I do remember a few gasps and a couple of people exclaiming, “what did he say?”

The reveal was the item of debate at recess for a long time. After Jedi it was an even bigger issue on the playground with lots of “I told you so” and “no you didn’t.” I can remember one of those discussions devolving into fisticuffs. Well there were deeper reasons, but ROTJ was the catalyst for the fight.
