Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi had a different name originally we discover from a new trailer clip posted. 

The Star Wars YouTube paged posted an original trailer from 1983 of Star Wars Episode VI but it was actually titled Revenge of the Jedi (watch trailer below). 

Director George Lucas obviously decided to change the name of the film to 'Return of the Jedi'. Also the trailer shows Luke using a blue lightsaber (in the final film, his Jedi weapon would have a green blade), and features a quick shot of Obi-Wan Kenobi before "spirit" effects were added.

The "Star Wars" YouTube page has now posted all three of the original three teasers for the first three movies, but this is the best one with real clips of the movie. 

George Lucas came back to the title in 2005 with the title Revenge of the Sith in Star Wars Episode III. 

What do you think of the original trailer?
