Other mistake: When the stormtroopers break into the control room, the stormtrooper on the right of the screen hits his head on the door frame. On the DVD release they've added a thump when he hits it. (01:18:55)

I own this on VHS, DVD, and Blue Ray.
Probably the single most influential Sci-Fi movie in history, kick starting the single most influential Sci-Fi movie series in history. The start of a legend in this break out blockbuster of the millennium. Well crafted, well written, and a whole galaxy of characters and potential.
The film isn't flawless, but it paved the way for two superior direct sequels, 3 underwhelming but overly unfairly hated prequels, a continuation of side stories and distant sequels, an innumerable amount of books and comics, and a ton of fun video games. There hasn't been anything so impactful in cinema since, and may never again.
Mistake Status: Have not looked, might in the future but not sure I can find anything new. But up for the challenge.

Princess Leia: You came in that thing? You're braver than I thought.

Answer: Presumably because the monster has pulled him through the lair of whatever they are standing on into whatever space the rest of the body of the monster lives in. Obviously, the monster doesn't live in the part of the part of the compactor that does the compacting or it would be already compacted.
