Which reminds me of another ROTJ change that Ady could make. In this scene, the original lines of dialog were:
Han - Don't move, Lando!
Lando - No, wait! I thought you were blind!
Han - It's all right. Trust me!
Lando - A little higher! Just a little higher!
Lando - No, wait! I thought you were blind!
Han - It's all right. Trust me!
Lando - A little higher! Just a little higher!
In the SEs, Han's second line was changed to "It's all right, I can see a lot better!", which was shoehorned in and always sounded "rushed" to me. IMHO, the original line harkens to the "resolving the Bespin betrayal" concept, and flows a lot better. (I'm not a knee-jerk Lucas hater, but this is one of the few SE/2004 changes that totally baffled me.) It seems to me that Ady could restore the original dialog easily, as the background music during that sequence hasn't changed.
