Star Wars IV: Luke Skywalker. I wouldn't completely remove him, but have him die with Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru during the assault on their moisture farm. Thus with his death, Leia Organa Skywalker Solo becomes the main focus of the films and becomes the Jedi Master in Luke's place. She still wears the golden bikini in Return of the Jedi though.
Ghostbusters: Louis Tully. As much as I like Rick Moranis, his part as Vinz Clortho could have easily been given to Bill Murray instead. Just have Peter go to Dana's apartment and after seeing her possessed by Zuul, have Vinz possess Dr. Peter Venkman instead. Thus he becomes the Keymaster to Dana’s Gatekeeper. Like MoFo said, give Winston more airtime as a central character.
Jurassic Park: John Hammond. Sure he was the creator of Jurassic Park and all, but he honestly wasn’t needed. Instead, have Ray Arnold (Samuel Jackson) play the role of founder and creator of Jurassic Park. This way he can live and not get eaten by Velociraptors. Hell, for shits and giggles, have him punch one dead in the face before escaping with his life.
Predator: Dutch. Yes I know Arnold was a huge selling point for this movie, but fuck that. We’re changing the game, and making Blain the main star of this attraction. I mean, if Danny Glover can kill a Predator with his bare hands in Predator 2, then why the fuck can’t a big ass mother fucker like Jesse Ventura kill a bastard with a giant mini gun? Well, now he can! Have the entire squad get ravaged the same as before, except for Blain who clearly kills the Predator at the end, rescues the Vietnamese chick, and then gets away. I’d also have Dillon live. Carl Weathers needs to not die in everything he is in.
