48 minutes
Go behind the scenes – and into the costumes – in this in-depth exploration of the painstaking techniques utilized by George Lucas to create the classic creatures and characters seen in the film. Hosted by Carrie Fisher and Billy Dee Williams.
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.

Revenge Of The Jedi Teaser Trailer

9 minutes
A team of legendary video effects artists celebrate the technological advances made possible by the Star Wars franchise and share stories, secrets and “happy accidents” from their groundbreaking work on the original films.
Climactic Chapter TV Spot
1 minute
Return of the Jedi, the climactic chapter of the Original Trilogy.
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.

Really good just really good. This should have ended the Star Wars saga. Cause everything is great at the end. And even if there was a Sequel Trilogy by LucasFilms not Disney. Snoke would have been a perfect villan instead of Plapatine returning. Cause that would just make Darth Vader's death meaningless here.

Though The Empire Strikes Back is the greatest film in the franchise, Return Of The Jedi is my all-time favourite. Literally everything about it is awesome (Yes, even the Ewoks)
