As awesome as the recap movies are, the cutting of Madoka's dream was completely glossed over throughout both movies. In the TV show, this played quite an important role, so it's ever more obvious that SHAFT wanted people to watch the show first, then these movies, because people who get introduced to the franchise with these movies might end up wondering why this detail never comes up anymore.
Overall, nothing really changed, aside from some changed or added scenes. The movies were still awesome in their own rights, but they're still recaps, so I could easily watch the show and get the same amount of enjoyment out of it.
The real question is, will the third movie live up to everyone's expectations? SHAFT is taking a very big gamble here and even a tiny bump in the storyline could end up in the movie ending on a bad note. Time will tell, I guess. Will probably have to stay clear of the movie discussions once the third movie is out in the theaters, though...
