12 minute long darth/obi fight!!
so im sure you guys have seen the articles and the short clip of the fight between obi and darth right? man! ewan and hayden were extremely super quick with their blades, like lightning fast. supposedly its the longest fight seen ever in cinema history or longest sword fight in cinema history, im nbot sure. jeeze! what a way top off the trilogy though. the stunt coordinator sounded pretty cocky in his interview about the fight scene and how he made up all of the new dark/light side fighting styles. i would be too, especially if i was given a twelve minute fiht seen to do. please forgive if this sort of thing has already been posted.
It doesnt matter how long the fight is,as long as it delivers. Remember the 30 seconds or so just after Beef-Chow-Mein got killed by Darth Maul and he and Obi Wan went into full hardcore mode? To date that 30 seconds is the best dual in the whole of the Star Wars saga just over the Vader Luke fight in ESB.
Its not quantity but quality that counts.

This guy needs to know what he's saying before he says it.

I believe that refers to swordfights. Prior to this movie, the longest recorded swordfight scene was something like six and a half minutes. It was in an old, corny as hell swashbuckling movie whose name I can never remember.
