am i the only one who thinks the best fight scenes are in SW3?
personally i thought the action scenes were amazing, the emotions were definately there, when Anakin fought Obi-Wan the coreograph borrows from Samurai, Chinese, and Fencing styles from other movies.
Truly amazing i loved them. and i bow the lucas for making me feel that Star Wars has truly become a better Fantasy movie then ever before

I think and still do that the best Star Fighter Battle scene was ROTS.
Best Saber action a tie between Maul vs. Obi and Luke/Vader ESB
The best blaster shoot out AOTC between the Clone troops and the Genosians.
The best Surface Battle goes to ESB Hoth.

IMO the fighting scenes are to high fly swordys and they dance around too much these days. IF you watch back 4-6 you can see how each time there's a lightsaber duel, it's slow, as if each of them are contemplating the others' next move.
I agree the duel's in ep3 were just hack and slash,the choreography sucked and there were to many confusing close up shots.I can almost say they looked rushed.The whole movie seemed rushed jumping from 1 scene to the other every 30 seconds or so.The duel was way over-rated as so the movie.But yah it is the best of the PT.The best space battle is still Return of The Jedi,EP3 space battle had some pretty shots but there was no sense of urgency or suspense and no dog fights.

The choreography was kick ass. People don't fight with slow ass moves. A real sword fight would be quick. It would be to the quicker, and the fact this fight went on this long proved that they were masters. The fight was deadly. I think it was so fast, most people couldn't grasp it. The OT fights were slow and you could see what they were trying to do as they fought. These moves were so fast, you had NO IDEA what they were trying to do. I like it better that way, makes it more mystical.
Besides, if you were watching two swordsmen fighting, I bet you would see immensely swift movements that looked almost akward and too quick for the eye, much less understand what they were going for until one of them lost a limb or keeled over and fell to the ground lifeless.
Masterful Lucas!! A job well done and nicely shot.
i agree, eps 3 was the best of the swordfights! and the duel of fates in TPM is a second.
i rate the duels as this:
'The duel'
mace/ palps
the duel of fates
yoda/ sidious
yoda/ dooku
anakin/ dooku 2
anakin- obi/ dooku 1
obi/ grievous
vader/ luke ESB
vader/ luke ROTJ
obi/ vader ANH

The best is luke in the death star fighting vader.. so much emotion and luke was under such terrible odds. Sidious talking shit... his friends are going to die at any moment, the rebellion is about to be annihilated. tEh bEst.
Though epIII had cool scenes and were very cool to look at... TOO SHORT with the exception of "The Duel"
Yoda vs Sidious is the best battle in SW history in my eyes.
2. "The Duel" between Obi and Anakin.
3. Duel of the fates with Maul Obi and Qui Gon.
4. Dooku vs Obi and Anakin part 2
5. Yoda vs Dooku
6. Mace vs Sidious
7. Vader vs Luke part 1
8. GG vs Obi
9. Vader vs Luke part 2
10. Obi vs Vader - ANH

ESB every time.
No fancy visual CGI ...thank god it wasnt around in 79 the way it is today.
I love the whole movement from the carbon freeze chamber to the.......i forgot what its called..but the spot where the reveal takes place.
It has emotion,real pain and it pisses all over the fancy acrobatics and cgi over load of the ROTS fight.
Having said that Maul Vs Obi Vs Qui is great.
Its the shit that comes inbetween that screws that up.
