I honestly think Jedi is equal in every respect to the other two films in the trilogy.  I just think when something works, it "works," and even with its flaws it is still a classic.  Things I love about Jedi:

The green lightsaber.  A perfectly timed, visually interesting way to introduce Luke as a Jedi that means business this time. Great.   

Jabba.  Before the Special Editions, he was discussed, but never seen.  His reveal did not disappoint.  He is as every bit as important and iconic as any of the SW characters.

Luke throwing away his sword.  There aren't many "tentpole" films where the hero surrenders in the third act.  Jedi rewrote the rules on this.  A lot of people don't understand this.
