Return of the Jedi - Deleted Scenes

Don't try to smooth talk all the inconsistencies... the inconsistencies are there because Lucas keeps changing his mind.

Hehe I never said I was doing that. I said it involved giving the words a twist. It's a game of semantics in that specific Vader - Yoda case, although we all know he meant meeting him for the first time 🙂

I do find the idea of Owen Lars and Kenobi being brothers plain horrible. Strictu sensu, that would have made Kenobi Luke's uncle and Vader's brother.

Well, the novels were also based on scripts that didn't have elements in them in the final shooting version(s), too. As far as I'm aware - I might be wrong - the novels are considered "G canon" with the movies except where there are inaccuracies/inconsistencies.

Err... no. Owen Lars was Kenobi's brother... not Vader's brother. It would have made Owen NOT Luke's uncle.

Wow. Didn't even think that through. I'm embarassed I went along with that.

I saw Jedi at the theatre. I always swore I remember a extra part to the rancor scene. When Luke and the Guard were dropped in the pit the Guard grabs the blaster and shoots the rancor to no effect. It then droppped the pistol. In all verssion I am certain just after he dropped the blaster and threw up his arms is where it picks up. Does anyone know anything about this.

I have the OT as it was originally released in theaters on laserdisc and I don't believe the scene is like that on my copy.

True.

The sandstorm scene and Luke hanging from the grate were also in the comic book.

And yes, everything you read in the novelisations of the films IS canon.

Still got that comic adaptation hanging around might check it out again for these deleted scenes

those two were'nt in it at all....well the one that i have anyway.

If we are talking about the Marvel Comics adaptations, the Return of the Jedi one didn't really include anything in the way of cut scenes.
The Star Wars comic had the Tosche Station/Biggs and Jabba scenes, whlie the Empire Strikes Back one contained the Wampa attack on the Rebel base and some extra moments cut from Luke's training with Yoda.

As for other Jedi deleted scenes... from the Blu-Ray teaser trailer, it looks like we are definitely going to get Luke constructing his saber, the sandstorm, the extended bunker attack, and some of the extra shots of Rebel pilots from the Death Star assault in the upcoming release.

I'm not sure that was entirely necessary.

J/k.

LOLOLOLOLOL

indeed.

That awkward moment.

Let's enjoy it while it lasts.
