I've always preferred the 'Bring my shuttle' line, and have been firmly against the SE additions during the Cloud City escape; but I have, too, always found the cut away from the 'Bring my shuttle' scene to be awkwardly abrupt. So I did prefer the additional shot of Vader walking to a Cloud City landing platform; I felt the visual pacing was improved here. One possibility could be, to keep the 'Bring my shuttle' line and the shot of Vader walking to the landing platform, but paint out his shuttle so that the landing platform is empty (this would be easier, and perhaps more elegant and in keeping with the cinematography of the film, than inserting the Falcon and extra takes of Vader looking towards the Falcon). The score would also not be negatively affected by this, either; I think that would be my ideal sequence for this part of the film.
