In the trench run when Obi tells Luke to use the force; Luke summons ghost Ric, flying his own fighter, who swoops in and destroys the Death Star.

This is the part where I ask how and you tell me that's my problem, right? :p

You could have Ric explain to Ben that the whole of the Death Star is one big city.

He could explain it to Luke too when they attack it.

As they're approaching the DS, after Wedge comments about the size of that tower, Ric's Ghost voice comes over the comm, to which Red Leader replies to cut the chatter.

Take Ben's "Oh, don't worry, he'll be all right," and have it play over the shot of the severed arm on the floor of the cantina.

In the Falcon cockpit, when Luke, Ben, and Han are discussing what happened to Alderaan, add Luke's line, "It looks like sand people did this, all right. Look, there's gaffi sticks, bantha tracks. It's just… I've never heard of them hitting anything this big before."

Anyone remember different camera angles from ROTJ?

I like both of these ideas.

Obi-Wan could then say that it wasn't the work of sand people and that it was the princess who did it. Or that it was Luke's father.

Greedo should be called Gringo.

I have confidence in Frink's skillz.

Yes! Han calls him Gringo and he has Eli Wallach's Tuco voice from 'Good The Bad and the Ugly'...

GRINGO: Hey, Blond!

HAN: Yes, Gringo. As a matter of fact, I was just going to see your
boss. Tell Jabba that I've got his money.

       Han sits down and the alien sits across from him holding
    the gun on him.

GRINGO: If you save your breath I feel a man like you can manage it. And if you don't manage it, you'll die. Only slowly, very slowly old friend.

HAN: Yeah, but this time I got the money.

GRINGO:  Hey! Hey everybody look! He's giving him the filthy money!

HAN: I don't have it with me. Tell Jabba...

GRINGO: I like big fat men like you. When they fall they make more noise. And sometimes they don't get up.

HAN: Even I get boarded sometimes. Do you think I had a choice?

       Han Solo slowly reaches for his gun under the table.

GRINGO: if you miss you had better miss very well. Whoever double-crosses me and leaves me alive, he understands nothing about Gringo. Nothing!

HAN: Over my dead body.

GRINGO:  When you have to shoot, shoot. Don't talk.

HAN: Yes, I'll bet you have.

       Suddenly the slimy alien disappears in a blinding flash of
    light. Han pulls his smoking gun from beneath the table as the
    other patron look on in bemused amazement. Han gets up and
    starts out of the cantina, flipping the bartender some coins
    as he leaves.

HAN: Sorry about the mess.

I wonder if Sir Alec says car in any of his films (he must do) that way OOBEEONE can inform Luke, "You will have to sell your car".

How about using Alec's "...your sister remains safely..." ROTJ line to change the dialogue to...

"You'll have to sell your sister... that's okay. I'm never coming back to this planet again"

As Luke flies the trench, he could hear Obi Wan say "You can't win... let go, Luke! Luke, trust me..."

So Lukes decision to turn off the targeting computer has a very different meaning. Luke could even bail instead of Wedge, and Wedge is the one who saves the day.

Leia could mean for Artoo to deliver the plans to Ben Kenobi but Luke takes Artoo to old Obi-Wan by mistake (Carrie says Ben in the prison cell so her message could be altered from that source).

As they leave we could meet Ben Kenobi (maybe Arnie referencing the infamous Chinese bootleg VHS) a big strong hero type character with lots of weapons and droids. He could be left on the planet waiting for the call to arms that never happens.

No, just stumbled onto it.

I know I’ve made some very poor decisions recently.
