Thanks for supporting. I'm watching the movie in parts, so as to watch it carefully and see what comes to mind.

Here's another.. right after the Sidious/Grievous hologram scene, we move to an establishing shot of Coruscant, then to a more precise establishing shot (padme's building), and right after that the characters are shown.

But remembering ESB SE (where there's another couple scene), we've got the establishing shot of Bespin at the begininig of the act (the SE Bespin aproach shot), then we move to Dagobah, and when we return to Bespin, there isn't another Bespin establishing shot, but just showing Leia's building. So what about cutting that little Coruscant shot?

BTW, don't know why, but that scene is one of the few moments in the film when I find it believable that Anakin could become Vader...I can't tell why, maybe the way he looks, he seems to have darker clothes and hair, or something.

Minutes later in the movie, I see no sense in the scene of Anakin and ObiWan right after Ani speaks to Yoda. If it is to warn us about Palpatine, well, no sense. And if it's to tell that the Senate is voting more executive powers on Palpatine's person, then there was no reason for Palpatine to precipitate the things by revealing he's a Sith. But, if you cut that scene, then we get the ilusion of Anakin and Palpatine having an actual friendship (Anakin gets to the chancellor's office without being called)
