Hmm, I should look into finding one then.  Not that I'm a huge TPM fan (or prequel fan), but I still enjoy watching them on occasion, but the changes on the DVD version are just so... bleh.  I mean, the podrace bordered on boring at its original length.  It really didn't need another 5-10 minutes added to it.

And as for the Rebellion in ROTS, I never really missed those scenes too much.  I don't even think they were that important.  We know the Rebellion eventually gets started.  I didn't really feel the need to have ROTS explain it to me.  Not that I didn't enjoy watching those scenes as bonus material.  I just don't see how they would have fit well into the movie.  Plus, it's another one of those universe-shrinking things because Padme helps begin it.  I mean, how many more of these more-amazing-than-coincidence connections did we need?  The only thing that saddened me about losing them in the movie is that I felt bad for the woman playing Mon Mothma having all of her material cut from the film.
