    This and speed racing scene are only reason why watch Ep1 again. Too bad this fight scene is interupted all the time. Better watch it on yt. But Maul was great villian.

    None of the lightsaber fights are any good, but yes, this one is technically the 'best'.

      What are some good sword duel scenes in cinema then?

        Troy, despite being a shit movie, has some great sword fights. Hero and Crouching Tiger are also really good. The Duelist is okay but overrated. I have a soft spot for The Princess Bride mainly because it's the funniest sword duel in a movie.

        There are no girls on Cinemaphile. And I didn't capitalize it. My phone did because it was the start of the sentence.

        Yes, always have been. I've never understood why anyone says that like it's some sort of knock against Star Wars. It's always been a teenager and younger aimed franchise since day one. It's why the pioneering efforts in film to toy mass marketing has worked so well. It just happens to have adult fans too. Most of them having grown up watching star wars
        But it's never going to be this R rated Alien/Aliens sort of adult themed Sci-fi.

      I think on a technical standpoint this one and Maul are at a pretty equal level. But Mustafar had much higher stakes with it being our two protagonists fighting each other and the winner being the one who didn't want to fight in the first place. Pyrrhic victory type thing. And a much better setting with lava spouts erupting and the entire mining area collapsing. As far as epic duels in Star Wars this one is the peak

      You do realize that about half of that fight is shot in extreme closeups of the actors' faces while they're wildly swinging their sabers in a random fashion, right?

    Why do people like this fight at all? The lack of coordination between the two Jedi is painfully obvious.

    Tbh I’ll give it to Disney, Ben Kenobi against Maul on tattooine is the best one while Throne room Vader vs Luke is the most important one.

    They all sucked. Literally every lightsaber fight is full of moronic spins, obvious pauses, swings at nothing (ie even if it hadn’t been blocked it wouldn’t have connected with anything), and clumsy footwork. Like in this fight, if you just watch Obi-Wan or Qui-Gonn individually, you’ll notice the choreography starts breaking down. The pace is right, but the coordination just isn’t there.
    I have never seen a satisfying lightsaber duel. The ones in Ahsoka were so bad I literally turned off my computer and screamed into my pillow for several minutes. I accidentally grabbed my cumpillow at first too so I had that shit on my mouth until I realized after a few seconds.

    Frick Star Wars.
