    The Clone Wars cartoons did more for all of the characters in little clips than all three of the movies. And had better choreography and everything.

    I wanted a lightsaber my whole life up until the part where George Lucas made this scene and told me that the real way to fight with them was twirling them around like a baton.

    That shit is gayer than an all-male drill team.

    It really does seem like they're fighting with completely different weapons here.

    I suppose the EU canon says they're using different Lightsaber forms, or something.

    see, that looks like a fight

    when lightsabers come out in the prequels, it is like there is an unspoken agreement between the participants in which they say "okay, let's just parry and dance around for a few minutes, then one of us does something final, okay"

    I actually think this is some good fight choreography (and the only good part about episode 1). Mainly saved by the athleticism of the dude playing Darth Maul.

    Like to see this little thing face of in a combat scenario.

    Paint on blue and one red.

    Have them count how many hits they take.


    Gatsby: That is easy, just use commercially available high quality airsoft guns, they tend to have magazines with high capacity that work much better than a little hopper.

    Or better yet, two compact M1911s

    the worst part about those fights is that they keep spinning their sabers around even when they're not striking Darth Maul.

    There's just so much completely nonsensical superfluous dumb shit in those scenes

    the dude from red letter media makes a good point too

    the lightsaber battles in the old films actually meant something

    they had weight and drama and real emotion

    they weren't just retarded spastic fucking over-choreographed, masturbatory events likened unto an epileptic child going into a fit while holding some glowsticks after popping a shitload of E during Tiesto's set at coachella.

    Didn't see the ending coming at all first time, amazing film.
    And that last fight is really something.

    If we'd had fight scenes like this instead of lightsaber raves, that would've been p cool.
