It might make sense to make a list of all these suggestions for ROTJ like the Adywan's ESB edit: Suggestion Terminal thread.
It's already becoming a bit difficult to follow.
If no one volunteers in the next few days and I can get the time I may well do it myself.

I've got the time. I'll see what I can do.

Lots of good stuff there. :) I'm particularly fond of getting rid of the stinkin' belches (and the Muppety shake that thing does after it grabs the rodent thing), the ridiculous Tarzan sequence, and the audio of Greedo. How lazy is that?!
I'd keep the Rancor keeper crying, though, just because my mother would bug me about it not being there. Haha.
I'd do something about Boussh's dialogue, too. So lazy and limited. Must be one of those languages where every word has 40 meanings or something.
just for an addition to the list, i would like to see ROTJ:R consider some of the ideas from the ROTJ fan-o-matic thread, such as it either opening in dagobah, or opening onto jabbas palace when leia arrives
Instead of restoring the Yub Nub song, why not use a new song entirely? Even though the Yub Nub song is much better than the current one, you still have to admit that it is also pretty bad. I'm sure Ady could figure out a way for a new song to fit in. Perhaps use some music from other Star Wars media? Just a thought.
Same goes for the music in Jabba's palace. Use the original Lapti Nek footage, remove the fat chick, and find a different song to play in the background. I'd even be happy if there was no music or dancing. Just sounds of alien chatter and stuff. It would make the scene a lot more fast paced.
Also, if Ady doesn't do a Hayden/Shaw morph to Anakin's face when his helmet is off, I don't think his eyebrows should be restored. I mean, the roots of his hair were totally burned... weren't they?
I also like the fan-o-matic ideas. I'm all for re-arranging scenes and whatnot.

ADM used the ROTS credit rendition of the force theme in his edit.
Hmmm, I did somewhat like that, but it was far too long and the montage kinda ruined it. I guess I would like the end music to be a variation of the force theme or the throne room music. The music should have a somewhat familiar sound to it but also have an epic ending.
Another suggestion: Fix Luke's lazy eye as he's watching Darth Vader burning. I donno if it's just me but I've always been annoyed by that lazy eye of his that only seems to show up at that one part.
First I wanted to add a more intense to Executor's fall in to the death star for the ROTJ:R
In the first pic I erase the death star surface so the executor take a bigger angle and speed.
Also I chanced the light direction to match with the follow shot.
In the second pic you can see that I altered the surface with an incomplete one and the ship is going little deeper in the star.
Plus some other action in the bg
3d pic, I thought after a massive ship fall into the death star a cool thing is a big piece to fly apart (like in TPM,trade federation battleship)so the damage will be more fatal ( one SSD down - agood hit to DS)
thats for now.
These are my ideas for ROTJ for the executor fall
later

That explosion in shot 3 looks too big. Remember the scale of things. While the SSD is huge, the DS is even huge-r. An explosion that big would cause chain reactions and destroy the DS right there.
My outlook on life - we’re all on the Hindenburg anyway…no point fighting over the window seat.
Yup i knew that someone will notice the how big explosion is.
I was making a point to show the damage :)
The explosion of course is smaller (damn Michael Bay)

Lovely images.
I thought it would make sense that after the bridge pod is destroyed (and the whole thing should be destroyed) it smashed into another capital ship which sent it crashing into the Death Star.
For nuGalactica fans something like the destruction of The Pegasus : http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwF67bhdXfk
It seemed to me that a ship that size would need more of a kick to send it tumbling.
The image of the blast would be a great alternative angle of the Death Star's actual destruction.
The whole smashing idea of executor hits an other capital shit and all the remain pieces hit DS sounds cool!
Good idea!

It might add a certain something if it was an iconic ship ramming into it (perhaps the medical frigate or the blockade runner in a neat reversal of the opening of ANH)
It would also be cool if a conventional Star Destroyer smacked into into it too.
That would be really epic!

I'd sure hate to be around when all that capital shit hits the fan.... ;)
Thanks for posting these ideas of yours vaderios. Some nice concepts there, and it sure gives a sense of anticipation about what possible tweaks Adywan will eventually have in store for us, come this particular battle.
I love the idea of the Executor hitting an Imperial-class Star Destroyer on its way down or it breaking into pieces a la the Pegusus destruction linked above.

It would also be nice to see the impact up close and from behind (f'nah, f'nah).
Please excuse the crudity of this illustration :
I believe this fall should be more interesting if it will be more extended.
The A wing hit the bridge,
Long - establishing shot: We see Executor falling with some ships below it starting to taking evading manuvers. Battle in the background.
Close shot from below: We see the Executor smash some SDs to its pass and some other ships trying to escape ( we can take some good footage from executor revealing from below, the SD that chasing Han after the arrival from the asteroid.)
Medium Shot from behind: We see a damaged and with all flames executor points the death star. ( good actual footage from ESB executor just before veers report to Vader, death star angle from ROTJ before the scene - I've told you to remain to the command ship- and some elements from Invisible hand fall from ROTS.
Shot from Ackbar's view: (actual scene) that he sees the ship falls to its doom.
Wide shot: the Executor enters and hits the DS. Some remains of the other damaged ships hits the surface of the Death star. Battle in the distance.
Medium shot: We see the death star taking a bit damage and several pieces of different size flying away ( elements and idea from TPM when the battleship is exploding from inside).Battle in the distance.
Inside the death star shot: (actual scene) Stormies running and the whole image is shaking from the hit. Maybe some smoke-sparks- explosions elements.
:)

That would be great, nice if we had a shock wave ripple out too.

could use ANH footage, maybe recoloured and flipped to look new?
Someone said the battle of endor to be more like ROTS opening battle, so we can see from the throne room the battle outside.
Ive noticed that in some parts there is not enough space to see outside so i cut some metal to extend the view.
Sorry for the crap battle pic but i was too lazy to make one from scratch. Notice the death star surface :)

very cool
very radical, in a good way lol
What would we do without you vaderios,rly your photshop skills are full of skills.
The person your searching for simply does not exist
yeah. but i don't think the battle was that close.
The idea is to make the battle more close :)
Thx Josh

Edit: Trying to fix luke's saber. A good techick is to draw a new back ground and put a new blade. I didnt make that cause of lazyness :P
