Still, it could be added. It would look better as the ending, I think.

I think IMDb is incorrect about this. We researched this quite extensively over on the 70mm ESB thread. The end of ESB was different, but it was because they added new model shots. Maybe the original 70mm version had a leap to hyperspace, but the IMDb is the only source for this item. I haven't seen this claim anywhere else.

KFan, try here. I put up some screen caps of what the original and the reshoot shots were.
Creating a reconstructed 70mm version of Empire is a worty project just waiting for someone to jump in and get it done.
