If you don’t mind me throwing in my two cents? I really like how the scene is edited to remove the Force Speed stuff. It’s a little awkward at first if you know what was cut but with the footage, you can follow the throughline. Obi-Wan calls out to his master about the Destroyer Droids, Qui-Gon pulls away and looks like he’s getting ready to vacate the area, then you see the droids roll up. The implication is definitely that these things are not to be trifled with and also there’s an aspect where perhaps Qui-Gon quickly noted that trying to get to Gunray while leaving Obi-Wan to deal with these things on his own is a bad idea and then later we do see their shields in action, meaning we have further reasoning for why they escaped. I think what sort of leads to it feeling a little weird might be how quickly it goes to the “They are no match for Droidekas.” line which is one of those things that can’t be helped. I did think maybe there would be a way to just have the shields come up before as a quick moment that establishes more of why they escaped but then they start blasting SO soon after the shields come up that basically that’s an impossibility.
