However, not seeing any of the rescue of the chancellor, especially the fight with Dooku, feels very strange. I understand there are many awkward moments there that have thankfully been cut, but I'd like to think some of it is salvagable.

Thanks for the critique. Yeah, the absence of Dooku might leave a hole in the story, but so much of what is important is so awkward or disappointing that I'll need to wait and see how that flows with the rest of the cut before I decide to try to cut any of it back in.

Maybe I could simply inter-cut the Obi-wan/Anakin/Dooku fight with the shots of the ship getting rocked? What do you think?
