Sometimes I do wonder what his issue is with continuity and plot elements. I mean, he cut the scene showing the beginning of the rebellion because he claims it "wasn't really important to the stroy." What... the hell? Filming that scene was one of the best decisions he made in tying the two trilogies together. Yet what does he do? He cuts it.
And then the Yoda arriving on Dagobah scne. He cuts it because "we already know where he goes." What? No we don't. Not if we are seeing things for the first time.

Wasn't there a debate a month or so ago on this board about these two scenes getting cut? I agree that they damn well should be in there...especially the Rebellion scene. That was way too important of a development to be left on the cutting room floor.
