A long way around to answer your question. No changes of the magnitude you mention were made to Return of the Jedi. C3PO was always floated around by Luke using the force to fool the Ewoks into fearing him and obeying his command to release his friends.
Not necessarily. ROTJ is a long movie - 2hrs and 13 minutes. Maybe that particular theatre cut 13 minutes out of the movie so they could get an extra screening in each day?
