People used to ask Adywan why he didn't put his extended Alderaan destruction into his final edit and he gave much the same response (that and it being a bit of joke anyway what with Jar-Jar dying and all).

He ended up sticking it on as a deleted scene.

And I see Asteroid-Man has used it in his edit. I am definitely recommending it be removed. ;) The scene is fun, and a good nod to the Jar Jar hatred, but the thing that gtes me about it is that they're just standing there (for what seems like an inordinately long period) looking at the wave of dirt coming at them. Surely they'd react even slightly...
