Aside from a few slightly jarring cuts in the music, Phantom Menace's awkward ending (which legitimately jump-scared me when I got to it), and the blockade run's somewhat frenetic editing it was incredibly good.
That final music cut... what version of TPM did you watch? Version 1 (93 min) or Version 2 (89 min)? With Version 2 I tweaked it a bit to make it a little less jarring by increasing the music to try and blend the volume levels a bit. But, in all honesty, I don't think it's possible to make it 100% fluid since the music isn't designed to go together naturally right there.
Out of curiosity, what song is playing in the second half of the trailer? It sounds familiar but I can't quite place it.
The music is by Clint Mansell. The score itself was for Requiem for a Dream, but this fully orchestrated version was done, I think, for the original Two Towers preview. That might be where you've heard it.
