I was watching the blu-ray of Return Of The Jedi yesterday with the archive commentary (some great comments from Carrie Fisher, by the way) and noticed, for the first time, a change which I can't find mention of anywhere. When Han and Lando are exchanging their goodbyes in the hangar bay, Lando has always said "I'll take care of her, she-she won't get a scratch". She-she? Yes, she-she. Anyway, it's been corrected in the blu-ray. Finally, Lando simply says "she won't get a scratch".

It made me wonder what other changes have been made that aren't talked about and how the blu-rays would've benefited from some input from George Lucas and Matthew Woods concerning the new alterations and the reasons for making them.

Seems that an inordinate time is spent discussing the changes that people don't like rather than changes which aren't so bad at all, like the "I'll see you in hell" moment on the DVD of The Empire Strikes Back which is a longer edit than it was before.
