A few shots have been re-arranged. (when the pillar is falling on Anakin and Obi and Yoda stops it, as Dooku escapes) I gave the disc back so I don't have it right now to check, but I think you can even hear the cut in the music. (I'll look around for a better description)

 

LOL, so my neighbor downstairs rented this and and I stopped over to watch.

Im suprised this hasn't gotten more response - i guess its ok to make the PT worse ;)  but we were like WTF!?  its so bad we thought the blu ray player jumped!  and the music is also now thrown off by it!

 basically-

-yoda moves the pillar away from obi-wan

-yoda is just looking

-anakin regains consciousness while obi-wan looks at him

-dookus ship takes off and padme tries to shoot it down

-yoda then grabs his cane and walks away

 it may have been for just a few seconds and doesn't kill it like the stupid "alert my star destroyer" - but it feels like something got botched and caused the disc to jump and re-adjust!

if this isn't some freak authoring anomaly and lucas personally did this, I never want to hear any more crap about his vaunted editing skills (which were overrated anyway)

i cant even think of why he would want to do this.  this was probably the only scene in the PT that became a pop-culture moment - and now the ending of it sucks.
