I'd previously cut it the same as the Phantom Editor (they just follow Zam to the club) but I've started thinking that excising ALL the action from that scene was a bad choice, so decided to keep Anakin jumping down (only making it a more plausible distance)

This was one of the reasons I really didn't like PE's EP 2.

The commentary is great, however.

Agreed. I've listened to the commentary several times over. In some areas, he's absolutely spot on, however the speeder scene is one part I feel he could have kept some Star Warsy action with a bit of creative editing.

One thing the PT is missing is a loveable yet rogueish Han solo type character, and the way SSWR has edited this scene establishes Anakin as that very archetype.
