That's right. Open it on Dagobah and walla

I still disagree with this - opening the film on Dagobah causes pacing problems.

To solve this, my solution is:

- Open the film with Vader visiting the Death Star
- Cut to Leia in bounty hunter disguise delivering Chewbacca
- THEN Luke on Dagobah

It sounds stupid, but that really does fix the pacing problems encountered with moving the Dagobah scene.

Some people complain that opening the film this way doesn't give you enough of an introduction to Jabba's palace, but I disagree - you can easily establish that it's Jabba by changing Leia/Boushh's subtitles ("Greetings, mighty Jabba. I bring you Chewbacca" or something), and if you start it with the dancer falling into the pit (but please for the love of God, no Lapti Nek!), it gives the opening a much more dark, foreboding feeling. I think it works very well.
