Looking at all of Vaderios's mockups makes me more excited about ROTJ:R than ESB:R.......
Until we had these mock ups I never really noticed how sparse and uninspired the sets of ROTJ are.

While I feel the same and find Vaderios's mockup really great, I think that the austerity of the Emperor's room and the fact that we see the outside battle from very far is a nice way to show that the Emperor is playing with the faith of the galaxy from a place where he thinks he's safe. It is also quite intimist and it serves well the purpose of the scene because we have this very personal fight going on between 3 characters. I'm all for having some nice views of Endor though the wide windows and cool atmospheric lightning effects in some shots, but seeing too much of the space battle would end as the Dooku/Obi/Ani fight in Ep3. Not very OT looking.
In short I'd like the throne room scenes to keep their "intimist" mood.
