Some of the changes on doubleofseven's lovely list have been long longed for.

This post comes from The Legendary Starkiller Ranch Thread http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/The-legendary-Starkiller-Ranch-Thread/topic/3886/page/31/and dated March 31st 2006 almost matches a post I made some months back (perhaps we should send a team into that thread to see if there is anything we missed).

Mangrove said:I'm no expert at video editing or rotoscopping, but I figure you could probably cobble together enough material to construct a believable scene for the Emperor's arrival in the beginning of RotJ using shots from ESB and a bit of special effects.

I put together this little picture to show what I'm thinking:

Frame 1: RoTJ opening crawl pans down to...
Frame 2: ...flopped establishing shot of SSD & fleet from ESB
Frame 3: shot of SSD & fleet approaching Hoth with the DSII rotoscopped over the planet
Frame 4: another flopped ESB shot with a shuttle (taken from later in RotJ when Han & the gang are flying it) rotoscopped in
Frames 5&6: return to normal RotJ Emperor's arrival scene
