I just finished watching your edit. Over all, I'd say it takes the embarrassment out of the movie. It still doesn't live up to the first two, but I can't lump it in with prequels any more either.

Here's what stood out to me:

  • The music number is a greatly improved.
  • The sound of Han falling out of the carbonite shell to the ground was delayed.
  • The subtitles are better. I'm not sure why Jabba likes female humanoids, but I didn’t understand that in the original either.
  • In the shuttle Tydirium, Han’s original response to Luke was silly, but it’s odd that no one cares that the Jedi is worried.
  • Cutting out the Ewok traps makes it clearer that the Rebels are ok with letting teddy bears fight their battles. They were literally hiding out to the left of the bunker.
  • Following Luke hugging Leia and Han, there is a noticeable cut to Luke looking at the ghosts.

 

Good job. :)
