Was it a good trick?



When Anakin gets a second lightsaber tossed to him by Obi-wan to use in the fight versus Dooku, Anakin promptly spins forward, then spins backward, then loses his second lightsaber.

Was it a good trick?

(Start at 1:35)

The fact that the highlight of that film was Saruman fighting a light saber duel with a muppet speaks volumes.

Weird how it took fuckin all of Yodas strength to briefly suspend a falling, indoor pillar of pipes that are like 30 feet long at most.

I kinda wondered something...Why aren't Star Wars fights just big Force push-fests? It seemed to be really effective; knocked Obi-Wan out cold. Can't they just fling people against a wall and then finish them off with their lightsaber?

It was so weird. I remember being excited to see the dual sabers fight, then it lasted for about 10 seconds.

Six seconds, actually.

It seems to only work when they're caught of guard. In episode 3 Anakin and Obi-Wan have a push stalemate that blows them both back.

That's what I figured, though I'd like them to make the combat rules clearer in the choreography.

Star wars just make shit up as they go along. The sequel trilogy is an obvious example.

It's always seemed weird to me that lightsaber fights are just sword fights. There should be more use of the telekinesis and jazz. Stuff like this:

Much like the original Highlander, the sword (saber) fighting in those movies was awful. But interjecting martial arts and acrobatics into the fight scenes in later sequels didnt make the movies themselves better for it.

That's what happens when you tell an old man to fight like he's a space wizard.

That's still one of my favorite movie moments in history.

No joke there were actual cheers and applause in my theater when Yoda busted out his lightsaber. I still think it would have been a better move to save that moment for the third movie vs. the Emperor, but it was hype in AotC anyway.
