Yeah, I really hate that Yoda - Palp duel. It would be great to have it removed, but like you said it comes pretty rough. You know, in every other movie you can cut out all the lightsaber scenes and past them together and they look incredible smooth. Not a missed beat. This is true for ESB, ROTJ and TPM, ANH is the only one that comes a little rough, but it isn't much a fight anyway. Yet the one fight out of all the saga that could benefit from such cutting, and it is impossible. The ROTS fight is very disconnected. You really have to have shots between it, because one second they are in one room, then in the very next shot they are in another. I can't stand seeing Yoda with his lame short little saber. It just doesn't look right. The fights look forced, with the other almost bending down in order to meet Yoda's blade like a father play dueling with his little six year old son.

jedi_jra, I for one would still be interested in seeing your clip.
