the transition timing needs to be a bit longer between Luke leaving Dagobah and arriving on tatooine Vader arriving on DSII is not Long Enough to show convey the distance travelled.

to pad this out would there be any way to insert somthing..

my suggestions:

the rebel fleet deep space and Delivering the Plans to Mothman? Only an Idea and the sequence is fine just feel it needs more transition time.

Believe it or not, this transition was my big hangup.  I didn't know how to order the scenes to effectively get Luke from Dagobah to Tatooine.  However, my hope was that after speaking with Ben, it would be implicit that Luke had left Dagobah so that after we see Vader on the Death Star and go to the X-wing approaching Tatooine, it feels like time has passed and that Luke has traveled the full distance.

I don't know about incorporating the Mothman into this story, as the Mothman Prophecies seem to be completely unrelated to Star Wars.  Oh, wait!  You mean Mon Mothma! ;)  If we do include the Rebels stealing the plans, that could be a very good idea.  However, the Mon Mothma footage is very limited, so I don't know how to effectively pull that off.  Perhaps if we include a ship in the beginning involved in stealing the plans, then later include the same ship simply entering the hangar of a Mon Cal cruiser, it could be implicit enough without showing any characters.
