Mace Windu Style {{Vapaad}}

Hello to you all
we all seen the movie by now,i guess and what i heared GL says that in EPIII we will see the mace style which is so called {{Vapaad}} and that this style will be the only key to make the battle last longer against the ruthless sith lord,Sidious.I didn't see it in thi=e movie though i watched it more than 5 times until now.....Did any one Notice a style during the fighting?

I love star wars

There is a style. The reason Vaapad is so effective is because it's unpredictable and unorthodox. It looks like "Samuel L. Jackson trying to do a style" because that's how it's supposed to look.

A Vaapad user channels the unrestrained power of the Dark Side, but neutralises its corrupting effects by staying free of negative emotion. Mace was the only one who could pull it off. Both his students turned to the Dark.

I dont really understand why it lead to the darkside. I mean his emotions didnt sky rocket out of control, or atleast not what i noticed.

Well he is the only one that can keep his emotions under control during the use of Vaapad.

Sound cool, but the fight was mostly close ups so i didnt really get to see it in action.

Yeah, why did they shoot that fight with close ups? I mean it would have been amazing to see in full body images.

I guess GlL made closeup shoots because he wanted us to see the action on both faces of sidious and mace when fighting each other...their eyes talked alot i can make that out when their lightsaber crossed together....another question did palpatine lose the fight or was faking it because he sense anakin coming to save him???

Does anyone know if Mace uses Vapaad in the ROTS game?

I'm not sure erm
But i've got a question, Vapaad is Form 7 right?
after Soresu, Makashi (Dooku), Shii-Cho, Ataro, Djem So, Shien.

Sort of. 'Regular' Form 7 is Juyo. Vaapad is a variation on Form 7 that Mace invented himself.

In 'Shatterpoint' it is stated that Vaapad IS Form 7. I think that this was a mistake though.

I would have preferred if they shot that sequence at 22 fps instead of real time. Simply because Hayden and Ewan are so proficient in their duel, it makes the masters look slow and akward in theirs. The only real impressive shots were provided by Papaltine's digital double.

^ amen to that.
I loved Palpatine's fighting style tho..it was really..well to put it bluntly like a reptile, or a snake just drawing in his prey until he can strike, the fighting style seemed to be a lot of lunges and crouching down awaiting strikes, i saw Palp's style as lunges and defense and waiting for the opportune moment to strike..i didn't really see much style in Mace's character other than the fact that it was really aggresive.
