This isn't something that will "ruin" Star Wars. It's just something that seems so completely unnecessary. It doesn't fix anything, and can even be argued to weaken the scene. The movie could use some actual fixes that wouldn't change the scenes or story. Like, for instance, fixing Vader's stump in that very scene.

Maybe not in your opinion, but in mine it does.
Then again, all of the changes previous to it have already ruined it. This is just one more dagger to the heart of the originals.

I come to enjoy the rage any change to the Star Wars movies evokes in people. I mean I have the original releases on DVD and last I checked they don't change just because Lucas loves f-ing with people. I--waitaminute

Here is my problem with Vader saying, "No... NOOOOOOOO!" It telegraphs his action and it lessens the impact of him grabbing the emperor and flinging him to death. His moment of silent horror and reflection makes that scene become the moment of kick ass that it was.
Also, considering the fact that Vader was standing next to the emperor, I'm pretty certain that the Palapatine would have heard Vader's "Noes" and flung him off the ledge as a preventative measure because, I don't know.. Vader had a history of attempting to betray the Emperor.

It's what we're all thinking.
George has always been clueless about these things. He has contempt for the viewer because he believes they're too stupid to pick up things like this. He is not a film-maker, he's a story-teller. When he didn't have full control of his stories and how they were told, they were tempered by more intelligent people. Now that he has full control, he goes back and dumbs things down thinking he's making them more accessible, when all he's really doing is increasing their suckitude.
This is why the prequels felt like they were aimed at ten year olds. Because they were.
And he's getting worse at it.
Right about now (Funk Soul Brother), I'm thinking the writing teams for Three's Company, The Lexx and Baywatch would be better stewards of the Star Wars universe than George Lucas. At least we'd have more jiggly bits to watch.

Pamela Anderson and Yasmine Bleeth were masters of The Force, but obviously David Hasselhoff is a modern day Sith Lord.
