>The prequels are better than the se-
>>217478528that's pretty good
>>217478548Watch the Plinkett review. He explains why that fight in particular is awful.
Is OP the same jeet that posts the Spinosaurus animatronic and samefags pretending it looks bad?
That scene looks more like a choreographed sparring demonstration that you'd see at a martial arts convention, but it's cool because light sabers are shiny
>>217478528holy fuck thats so badass, gonna have to watch episode 1 again
>>217478528>The prequels are better than the se-Isn't this usually used when the statement is "proven false"? That clip isn't doing that.
>>217478528this is slowed downwhy?hollywood is retarded
>>217478689The lightsabers feel weightless.The sequels fixed that. According to JJ Abrams a rule in the sequels is that the lightsabers had to be treated as heavy longswordsA lightsaber is essentially a zweihander
>>217478528-quelsThe sequels aint serial, its episodic with nothing that ties them togetherNot to mention they ruin the Anakin arc by reviving Palpatine for some cheap fanservice with zero substance
>>217478731HAHAHAHAHAHA!
>>217478731>I WANT ACTJUN, NOT SERIAL STORY TELLING!
>>217478731Plot continuity>>>>>>>>>>> reddit clip reel show
Im convinced the sequel trilogy was written by early AI
>>217478559It's not awful it's greatAnd whats a pinkett
>>217478807nahit would've been comprehensible if so
>>217478528>Breaking News: These people made a shitty version of Star Wars
>>217478731>The lightsabers feel weightlessHow else would they be usable in a universe with blasters?
Lets see:The Force Awakens - a remake of A New Hope with zero rewatch value since you can watcg the original insteadThe Last Jedi - subversive for subversion sake with zero entertainment valueRise of Skywalker - a series of dissconected clips and a glorified toy commercial shat out in time for ChristmasNo story arc connects the three
>>217478528This is all you need.
>watch Jackie Chan's Police Story>"LOL this is OBVIOUSLY choreographed, this would never happen. You'd have to be stupid to think a police officer and criminals would do these kung fu dances together. Not like me, I'm clever for noticing it's not realistic."
>>217478528It is really hard to imagine what kind of braindead zoomer keeps making this thread playing both sides of pro-prequel and anti-prequel. How empty is your existence nigger
>>217478528Don't chop off the ending OP.
For me, it's Anakin and Obi-Won both randomly twirling their lightsabers mid-fight.
>>217479158Yeah... that was intended to show how evenly matched they were, and one trained the other so they were mimicking each other... I understand. But as with much else when Lucas had utterly free reign, it just came off as a bit silly.
>>217478528This duel is objectively better than anything in the sequels. The choreography in the sequels is so bad, it's actually shocking. It makes the duel in a New Hope look good.
>>217478559Right, I forgot to consider what some dork I've never heard of might think about!
>>217478559So you don't know why it's bad, just that someone who you consider above you hates it and therefore you do to.
>>217478731mmm
>>217478528>>217478559This has to be some kind of bot. It's either that or just a really unfunny faggot.

>>217478528I love this duel. Obi Wan is so pissed here. Lucas did an excellent job at making Maul really hateable in this scene.
>>217479259Wait a minute...https://archive.4plebs.org/tv/search/filename/Obi-Wan%20vs%20Darth%20Maul.webm/type/op/This just got a lot weirder.
>>217479276>making Maul really hateable in this sceneThe little arrogant shrug he does gets me
>>217478528>posts a good scene
>>217478731>we cant be fucked coming up with a coherent choreography>let's emphasise how retarded it looks by having a fixed camera angle and the main characters not really moving at all except to stab the ground for no reason
>>217478528Crazy how just this fight alone has better choreography than all 3 Rey movies combined.
>>217478731>you feel that?>that's WEIGHT
>>217478559This is the most reddit reply ive ever seen
>>217479451Damn that shit was dumb.
>>217478731You realize zweihanders are not designed for fighting, right? They are known as horse swords because they're designed to dismount a rider by breaking a horses legs when swung. They're far too heavy for actual combat.
>>217479595Also they're not "heavy" in the sense you can't flourish with them. There's a twink on youtube who fucking dances with a sword twice his height because they were also used for crowd control.
>>217478731Also >A lightsaber is essentially a zweihander No it isn't you fucking halfwit. The original concept for lightsabers was being a laser katana. Thankfully, they remembered it's science fiction and had a less restrictive application by the time the sequel came around.
>>217478528That's...one of the better lightsaber fight sequences in any Star Wars movie?Eight seconds with 15 moves and no camera cuts is really damn good, Anon. Especially since it's not like Pirates of the Caribbean where the actors were moving slowly and camera tricks were then used to speed them up; here, the actors are actually moving that fast.Actually faster now that I think about it; IIRC, they needed to slow it down because they were moving too fast.
There's a making-of doc out there where they say the lightsaber combat in the prequels was inspired by the way Char's Counterattack did lightsaber duels.
>>217479656In the OT they were treated like longswords. Partially because technical limitations and partially because lightsabers weren't the focus. They were a storytelling device, pretty common with swordfights back then.Prequels went full crazy with them, which made sense because Jedi were at the height of their game. They would be dancing circles around people.
>>217478731Look, I actually prefer heavier lightsabers too. But that doesn't change that as long as the sabers *are* being treated as light, OP's video is an example of excellent fight choreography.
>>217478528Blegh, how could Lucas forget to give his swordplay some real weight too it (physical and emotional)
>>217479283>>217479259It's a samefag.
>>217479283Bro wtf.
Why do they keep turning their backs to each other? I took like 2 months of martial arts and that's one of the first things they explain to you is retarded in a fight.
>>217478881Diego looks like macca

>>217480079*psst* Hey, wanna baby? I gotsa baby. Buy this here baby—not too loud, cops!Anyway I gotta baby. Get a baby, $200, reasonable price. I got lots of good shit *opens coat*. Toothpaste, razor blades, passports. Good baby, happy life. C'mon, don't be a loser, I'm gonna be sold out of all this tonight. My merch just flies out of my coat, it's got wings
>>217478559Who?
>>217478731Uhhh aren't lightsabers supposed to feel weightless? The blade is made of light energy and all the weight would be in the handle, which makes whipping through the air swift until the enegy field hits a surface, right?
>>217480392No the plasma blade is contained by magnetic fields that exert strong gyroscopic forces or sum shit
