* The first scene with Amidala, Organa, Yoda et al in Palpy's office is gone.
The portion where Jar Jar greets Obi and Anakin at the elevator up through the "awkward reintroduction" of Anakin to Padme was removed. The scene starts with Obi/Ani talking about how they're going to find the person responsible, etc.
Not a big deal.After Anakin makes kouhoun sushi and Obi leaps out the window, the end of the scene where Dorme' asks Padme if she's alright was trimmed off.
I would keep that in, but remove the parts where he almost runs into the "what the.." and the bitching aliens.A minor trim: the part where the assasin droid (to which Obi-Wan is clinging) tries to scrape Obi against the building was removed.
The rest of the Coruscant chase remains intact
Some of Anakin's immaturish whining i'd snip..and the ball as well.In Padme's quarters, a minor trim of Anakin playing with the floating ball and (I think) the part where he says he's ready for the trials.
I'd remove this as well,but in another part of the movie insert the Mace/Kenobi docking bay deleted scene.The discussion between Obi-Wan, Mace and the floaty Yoda was removed.
Never bothered me I guess.On the train, the tearful goodbye of Dorme was trimmed out of the rest of the scene
The library scene was completely removed.
Sounds okWhen Anakin and Padme arrive at the Naboo Spa and Resort Island, there are quite a few minor trims - the part about "here, everything is soft and smooth" to the hand touch and back rub was clipped out.
Sounds about right, I do some chopping on the fireplace scene, but no matter how you slice it, it's difficult, there has to be a significant amout of footage left in or the "improbable" romance seems even more so.As far as the rest of the Naboo scenes go, the only ones that were left in were the dinner table scene and a much abbreviated fireplace scene. The "I'm haunted by the kiss you never should have given me" is one of the exorcised lines. No "sound of music", no picnic and no Shaak-riding.
I'd keep that in.On Kamino, the portion of the scene where he heads back out to his ship to have R4 send a message back to Coruscant was trimmed out.
Whats wrong with that part?Boba's firing of the Slave I cannons was trimmed out of the fight
Good choice.The Anakin "a sheet, a dream, a moan" - scene is gone. It goes straight to Anakin in his meditative "Vader-esque" pose on the balcony.
Never bothered me.On Tatooine, 3POs introduction of Anakin/Padme to Owen/Beru was cut
I'd cut some of the dramatics out as well...but keep enough to get the point across.In the Confession scene, the beginning part in which Anakin comments about "the shifter broke. Life seems so much simpler when you're fixing things," was cut. NOTE: The ending of the Confession scene is the original ending (ie. without Padme's "...is to be human" line).
I'd keep both in.Dooku's entrance into Obi-Wan's floating cell was trimmed off, as was the end portion about "it might be difficult to secure your release".
It actually a poor scene,I cut the "Ree Yees" guy out but the manipulation has to be kept in to make sense.The scene in Palpy's ofc where he manipulates Jar Jar to consider making the "emergency powers" motion in the Senate was removed completely.
I'd have to look at it again, but I think it's ok.Yoda and Mace's conversation where Mace states that their abilities to use the Force are diminished was cut out.
Didn't bother me.On Geonosis, there is portion of the scene after Ani/Padme exit the ship, and R2 wants to do the same. The part where C3PO and R2 argue, and 3PO says that he knows all about humans was trimmed off.
There is a way to totally remove the whole "droids" adventure" in that sequence..and in the Geonosis Arena.Factory scene was shortened by numerous quick cuts and edits. A couple of the cuts we caught were the shots where C3PO hanging by his fingertips and the 1st "teaser" of molten metal where you see the cannister iris open and drop a load, only to find out that it wasn't Padme's container.
I'd remove the "you're going to pay for all the Jedi you killed today" to just "we'll take him together, you go slowly on the left...",also I'd cut the lightning bolts being shot and blocked by Kenobi" and the part about "master Yoda hold you in such high esteem" and keep "surely you can do better"...The Yoda vs Dooku Duel has many variations in the way it could be cut.The final battle, as far as we could tell, is completely intact
People make a big stink about that, but she says "uh-huh" in a pained way,so I keep it in, but cut out the second "no".A note: not a cut, but a switch: after Padme falls out of the transport and the trooper arrives to help her, it is the version where she grunts and just says "Uh-huh," when he asks her if she's alright.
