The idea behind having the DS II at the beginning of ESB was to make its sudden appearance in ROTJ less of a rehash. But ultimately, I don't know how effective this is. It's a little pointless to show it in ESB when it never really plays any role in the movie.

I have no idea if this is even possible, but over on the Starkiller thread about a year ago we talked about during the beginning of ESB, show the DSII being built. I think we put it by Mustafar.
Anyways.

yeah, I think the destruction of the original Death Star would've been an enormous blow to the Empire, to show them bouncing back so quickly and starting construction on a second death star at the beginning of Empire would really negate some of the importance the original Death Star had, as well as take the shine off of the rebels victory in the first film.
I can Imagine Vader apologising to the Emperor for the destrustion of the death-star, only for the Emperor to reply
"don't worry about it! we got plenty more where they came from!"
