Yeah, I think the whole dancing number should be taken out.

Also, why do people dislike the ring in planet/DS explosions?

I don't dislike it for what it is, but it seemed that Star Wars, which was ringless (which is just fine by me) decided to copy Stargate and whoever. Star Wars needs to copy NO ONE!

The ring is arbitrary. No reason an exploding planet needs a ring, except that they were biting off Stargate.

I think it would be much more interesting to see the second Death Star burning before it blows and for it to have a spherical shock wave but as I suggested in my mega post, rather than destroying the Death Star deflection shield I'd have it switched to protect the moon thus avoiding the Endor holocaust scenario.

Seeing lumps of debris bouncing off a planetary shield would look interesting and unique and it would make better story sense.

Something that size blowing up so close to Endor would be a disaster even in a fantasy film, the original Death Star was far away from Yavin IV and Yavin would have scooped up the worst of the debris but Mk2 is in a low orbit around the moon and it's supposed to be bigger.
