As for Jar-Jar stepping in poodoo, I think if we cut to the next shot right after Padme says, "Like us," then it won't be a problem.
Also keep in mind (as TJ has already pointed out), these are very rough cuts. Things to be added include: Natalie Portman Dialogue as she joins the group traveling into town, an extended hike from the ship to the city (compositing the characters into other desert footage is the tentative plan), Watto humming the Cantina theme before the group enters his shop, and Anakin's first line "Are you an angel?" being telepathic, echoing on Padme's head, not to mention the dubbed and subtitled Jar-Jar and a new musical flow. This clip is far from finished, and the danger of posting such material is negative reaction, but the idea was to inject some life back into the thread, so in that sense I think it was effective.
