DELETED SCENE: ECHO BASE, ARE YOU THERE!?


With his faithful Tauntaun down, and the injured Luke soon within its warm belly, Han Solo struggles one more time against the weather to contact the Rebel base, but to no avail, in a rehearsal/deleted scene moment filmed in Norway, from THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK.

Watch carefully the most recent Blu-ray version of the movie, and you'll see that, after putting Luke inside the Tauntaun belly, Han walks around the dead beast and reaches for the communications/scanner pack, before the shot goes to a wide angle and shows our Corellian then beginning to put the shelter up as the weather worsens.

The storm worsens.
