Which is best?





Eliminated Day 1: Rey/Finn vs Kylo Ren
Eliminated Day 2: Luke vs Kylo Ren
Eliminated Day 3: Rey vs Kylo Ren III
Eliminated Day 4: Anakin/Obi-Wan vs Dooku I
Eliminated Day 5: Palpatine vs Windu/Fisto/Kolar/Tiin
Eliminated Day 6: Luke vs Darth Vader I
Eliminated Day 7: Yoda vs Count Dooku
Eliminated Day 8: Obi-Wan vs General Grievous
Eliminated Day 9: Rey/Kylo vs Praetorian Guard

Absolutely amazing looking fight. Please do not go back and watch it closely. In regular speed it looks great but the choreography is absolutely atrocious if you actually dissect it. Random spinning, so so much spinning.

If you strike it down, it shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.

Obi-Wan's spin in the episode IV fight is worse than all the spins in the Reylo fight put together

think I changed my mind about the 'all good winners' thing after rewatching Obi-Wan vs Vader.

you can do a good slow and deliberate sword/lightsaber fight but this uh. isn't that

Yeah, Obi-Wan/Vader isn't a good fight in terms of the fight itself. It's really more for the final part where Vader cuts him down, I guess, because that's a super memorable moment.

Seniority. It's the first ever lightsaber fight, so it gets more leeway.

Even then, the final moment of Luke vs. Vader 1 is a lot more remarkable...

The best one being the one where he has a clear kill shot on Rey but instead pirouettes away

I mean yeah, it has big problems

I also don't think any other lightsaber fight in the series outside of Luke/Vader 2 is any better. The guy in that video talked about how he wanted a lightsaber fight he could love and watch again and again, and I don't feel that way about anything in the series. It's all people spinning and not aiming at each other, then winning due to a dumb strategy. The old movies aren't different from the new movies in that regard.

Like again, I loved the fight, it looks awesome. But it suffers from a lot of the stuff pretty much any movie fight suffers from right. If you look at it slowly it has major problems and some of them are downright hilarious

And of course it's from TLJ, and in the competitive youtube market people are desperate for new reasons to trash it

Movie fights have gotten harder for me to appreciate over the years. Once you've seen a lot of them you start to notice the nonsensical decisions most characters in them make. I actually miss when I was younger and wasn't paying that much attention. I'm not even trying to be nitpicky - it's pretty automatic at this point.

Give me all the flash and flair. It's why I'll still fanboy over the Darth Maul fight. I don't care if it's realistic or not.

I don't really like Anakin/Obi-Wan though. It's a lot of just standing and jumping around without much actual dueling.

Yup. I like a bunch of prequel fights better than Anakin vs. Obi-Wan.
