Longest Fight Scene Ever For Star Wars: Episode 3
[Monday, January 26th, 2004]Stunt coordinator Nick Gillard is claiming that Star Wars: Episode III will have the longest fight scene in cinema history.
"I got the Jedi style from all the great sword styles," he told The Times. "Only about 12 people on Earth know it and can read the moves off the page. But I invented it, so I can beat them all, though Hayden Christiansen, who plays Darth Vader, is the toughest. The skill is mostly balance and having your feet in the right place."
"In the next film, Ewan has more than 1,000 moves, which are more complicated to learn than dialogue. The climactic fight scene is, at 12 minutes, the longest fight scene in cinema history."
