Deleted Scene: Battle of Endor: The Lost Rebels
9 minutes
This footage includes Rebel pilots who never made the final cut, plus additional action featuring the Millennium Falcon's support crew. Footage of General Madine as the Rebel leader was shot in case the puppet of Admiral Ackbar did not look convincing.
Deleted Scene: Vader's Arrival and Reaching Out to Luke
2 minutes
This sequence nearly made it all the way to the finished edit of the film, as it was scored with music and features completed visual effects. It would have introduced Luke Skywalker very early in the movie, as well as his new lightsaber.

1 minute

Deleted Scene: Rebel Raid on the Bunker
2 minutes
In the film, Han and his strike force encounter relatively little resistance in infiltrating the Imperial bunker. This incomplete sequence – without finished visual effects – has a longer gunfight, as well as Han’s reaction to being famously called "Rebel scum."
Deleted Scene: Tatooine Sandstorm
2 minutes
This was the first scene shot for Return of the Jedi, and also the first scene cut from the film. As it was never completed, the dialogue was never re-recorded.
Deleted Scene: Jerjerrod's Conflict
2 minutes
Commander Jerjerrod originally had more screen time. He is seen risking the wrath of Vader, and having misgivings about targeting the Endor moon with the Death Star.

I think its the weakest among the original trilogy, but its still good.I do not like the Han Solo rescue mission because Luke's plan is very confusing and it is not connected to the main plot at all. But all the Luke and Darth Vader stuff was amazing. I mean,the entire final act was amazing! The rest of the film was okay.
