People will complain it was too fancy and dance like, but they forget they train their whole lives every single move over and over, they aren't brawling, they probably thought 5 moves ahead of the moves they are doing. It is a great fight scene.

It's pretty dang good, I agree.
I dig the opening flight sequence, showing the magnitude of the battle. The Clone troopers and the different styles they wore are still one of my favorite things about III. Camo Trooper that Yoda takes care of was one of the coolest |

That damn "duel" took what felt like 20 minutes.
Ever seen the way an old-school samurai movie depicted the fight between two combatants who were both masters of the sword? That's more like it. |

The emotion of the duel is what makes it so interesting.
Obi-Wan clicks into Jedi mode then when Anakin is getting burned up he gets all emotional like family. |

I think I slept through that part last weekend during the marathon. Our whole family watches it through out the weekend. Can't wait for next weekend and the new movie. |

I have the special addition 6 -movie box set. In it it shows them training for that scene.IIRC, Took them a month or so of practicing to get it perfect.
I remember one statement about the scene, "It is all them & They are that fast". First time I saw the movie that scene had me emotional & contemplating relationships & betrayals. Then I contemplated how Ben should have Force shoved him into the lava & ended it right then & there. The thing is Sidious would have just found another apprentice... Evil seeks out Evil for Evils sake. Watching Episode 4 again after that scene left me suddenly disappointed in their second duel. |

My favorite will always be Maul VS qui gon and kenobi. Even the first encounter between Qui Gon and Maul on Tatooine was fantastic. Ray Parks was the catalyst behind the best light saber scenes IMO.

The prequels get a lot of grief but all in all they are pretty decent, 2 and 3 in particular can hold thier own.
The immense cheesiness of 1 however destroyed a lot of goodwill people had for the franchise. I highly recommend seeking out the "Anti-cheese" edits of the prequel trilogy, a Private editor cut down all the cringeworthy moments to keep just the fundamentals of the story and they actually are quite watchable and enjoyable. Episode 1 was cut to the bone, but is frankly much much better for it. |

I have to agree that Yoda could take them all, but Obi-Wan is a badass. The only way that Anakin(Vader) beat him was giving up to become even more powerful.

It's pretty awesome.
It also shows that Hayden Christensen is capable of great acting when Lucas isn't feeding him shit dialogue. His facial expressions and body language are great during that whole sequence. |

The latest trailers show them taking a run a Death Star 1. Does this mean the one in A New Hope is Death Star 2? I guess what I'm getting at is, I hope a lot of Rebels die in Rogue One. Can't wait for Friday. |
