There would be no second Death Star. Instead I would have had an Imperial drydock where warships are being mass produced. It would still be above Endor and the Empire would be mining the moon to death for raw materials.

The whole rescue Han scene would be the same (although less muppety and more Heavy Metal feeling) and would still be sort of light hearted.

Afterward Han and Lando would reconcile their differences aboard the Millennium Falcon after they depart Tatooine

Only when Luke speaks to Yoda it is revealed that Luke only made the rescue plan so convolted was to impress leia with his new found Jedi prowess. Luke realizes he has done wrong after Yoda has died.

When Ben tells Luke about his father he gives him the "certain point of view speech" but asks Luke if he would really have wanted to know.

"What would you have done with that information, Luke? Would you have rushed to face him then as you did for your friends?"

Ewoks would still be there only because I love the sort of whimsical quality they bring the film what with friendly forest creatures helping to take down a dark sorcerer (Palpatine).

And I would have Han and Leia marry before the Alliance briefing scene. Then when Luke shows up he is in shock. This would make the relationship very tense but he finally realizes what he has to do. Be bids Leia goodbye and goes to face his father.

just my $0.02

This is good.

Thanks.
