Okay sugar.
One idea I've been tarting around on the wishlist thread for some while is that when the Rebels enter the backdoor bunker, instead of going underground to the reactor room (do we need another reactor blowing up?) they enter a service elevator leading to the just under the projector dish.
The reactor background could be replaced by a view of the skyline and perhaps a bit of the dish showing.
The Imperial officer gets knocked off an exterior balcony of the tower instead of into the reactor area.
When the charges go off instead of blowing up half the forest it just snaps the dish off which slides downhill cutting off the power to the Death Star shield.
When Han and Leia watch the station explode and have their little chat about Luke it takes place inside the wrecked dish.
Big effects project but it would make the conclusion of the ground battle look more visually interesting and it would be kind of poetic for Han and Leia to watch the Death Star go bang inside the carcass of their slain dragon.
LOVE it!
