I have to respectfully disagree. They chopped the score up with the new cuts for one. Secondly, when Vader says "bring my shuttle", we know where he's headed and it aint on vacation.

And Vader disembarking from the shuttle.......did Lucas really think we wouldn't spot Jerjerrod at the bottom of the ramp?

And the shuttle landing scene takes way too much time and completely disrupts the flow of the Falcon-Tie chase...and the music behind it.

Sometimes less really is more.

^ Oh, no, I agree - I'm completely against the landing scene of Vader's shuttle in the Death Star II's hangar bay! That scene does clutter the Falcon chase and destroy the pace here. I was just talking about the landing-platform on Bespin shot and the shot of Vader's shuttle flying to the Executor (but not landing inside of it!); the shot of Vader's shuttle flying to the Executor happens before the Falcon chase, and before Luke is even picked up by the Falcon, and so it doesn't really infringe on the flow at this point in the movie (or the music progression).
