Cheers Jay, That's so cool to see that - I'm curious why they cut it - it's a very dark scene, so maybe that's why.

Chills down my spine when I heard the lightsaber power up, tbh its been too long since I watched the original trilogy and I spent a bit of time watching ROTJ after catching this scene tonight.
I am not sure if the movie would have been better or worse with it in, unless someone makes a fan edit or George decides it belongs in the final version we won't know if it works, but regardless it is a GREAT scene to watch knowing that it might have been..

Is that really a deleted scene???
Luke looks kinda old... post ROTJ old!!!
Maybe something Lucas went back and filmed several years ago.... trying to pull of a LOTR Peter Jackson super 6 disc special edition???
Just a thought!!!

I was pretty stoked when I heard that this scene was shown. I actually didn't even know if it was filmed, but thought it would have been cool to see in the movie when I read it in the novelization for Jedi. The only reason that I can think of it being cut is the fact it feels a bit dark to me and almost like Luke is ready for Revenge as soon as the saber ignites. So maybe it was considered until the name change. Hopefully there is some commentary to go with it to answer the question.

Man i love this scene ROTJ was desperate for a bit more darkness like the ESB imo so having this scene in ROTJ would have been perfect for me!!
Luke with his hood looks so like Anakin from ROTS in that scene for me i wonder if this scene had some influence on George Lucas when him filmed ROTS all those years later?
Shawn where in the novelization was this scene it would be cool to know where it fitted into the run time of the film!

He then premiered one of the deleted scenes from "Return of the Jedi," which shows Luke Skywalker working on his green lightsaber before taking on Jabba the Hutt's palace and then stashing it in R2-D2's head. We now have that scene for you here.

Cheers Tim i know exactly where it fits now i guess we will have to wait until the blue ray version are released where im sure this will be added to the deleted scenes to get a proper copy as this looks like it was filmed on a phone at C5. Adywan is nearly finished the ESB edit im sure once he takes on ROTJ adding this scene back in will defo be on his to do list

okay I see.....Its Tatooine....first time I saw it I shortly thought it plays on endor....before hes volunteering into Vaders hands!
So its definatly Tatooine....I like this scene!
You think Georgyboy is planning to do a new version of ROTJ....again?
Im still missing the Biggs Darklighter scene in SW....so lets see! Maybe one day!

Wow,....gave me some cold shivering, in the very positive way!! I hope G Lucas will not having this non official movie removed from You Tube too soon.
Maybe they let the scene out to make sure that R2D2's pop-up saber came out as a real surprise during the fight above the Sarlacc Pit.
Also the scene with a dark cloaked mysterious guy entering Jabba's palace, would be less exciting to watch when you had seen this scene before and knew it was Luke.
Just my thoughts.

This would have had to have been the second scene in the movie after Vader was talking to Moff about the "Emperor is coming here."
Unless there is more to this scene, it would have been kinda odd just wedged between the Death Star scene and C-3PO and R2-D2 walking up to Jabbas Palace.
It's a cool scene for sure, but makes sense to cut it in order to keep the flow of the movie.

I think the scene actually would fit it's just a matter of how it would be cut in. At the end of the Moff scene we see Vader turn around and walk away. Then it would cut to this deleted scene of vader walking down the death star corridor and going to the meditation chamber. I just think that some of the music would have to be modified a bit to cut the two scenes together. Just my theory though and it will be interesting to see how Adywan does it when he starts working on ROTJ.

I agree Shawn i think cutting the scene in this way would be how it was originally done and im pretty sure if Lcuas doesnt add it into an edit of the film on the blue ray released than Adywan will when he takes on ROTJ.
At the end the scene fades (much like many scenes in SW OT) so that part so fit anyway.
I also like the fact that ESB ends with Vader calling out to Luke so taking that into account this scene works perfectly for me!

A case of post production marketing for the blue ray version?

Looks like Lucasfilm has moved fast to removed this video from You Tube and a number of websites!
Thankfully i manged to find a download before the plug was pulled!

I'm in the camp that would love to see this scene cut back into the movie! I think it's a cool scene and it's interesting to note that it survived well into post production.
If I remember right... I read somewhere that they showed this scene to Mark Hamill on the golf course before Lucas announced it at the Main Event. He even had Hamill come out on stage to introduce it. Hamill apparently didn't remember shooting the scene, until he was shown the video then it all came back to him.
It's a very cool scene and I can't wait to see what else Lucas has up his sleeve for the blu-ray release.

Its was Mark Hamill he just could remember filming it and didnt know it was going to be released when the guy in that you tube video asked him.
