I disagree. Once you've established a location, there is no need to contiually, and in every other scene, re-establish it in a wide sweeping shot. I literally got bored watching all the damn establishing shots, and I swear it sounded like they used the same music cue for all of them. We all know what the Jedi Temple looks like. We all know what the Senate looks like. We all know what Padme's apartment looks like. Hell, there were even establishing shots of space.
