Re: Redo of Anakin vs Obi-Wan Duel

Anakin: "You will try, old friend."
Anakin then performs the leap at Obi, activating saber as he does so.
Saber fails to ignite, like it did in Episode II.
Anakin: "Not again! Obi-Wan's gonna kill me..."
*Obi slices up Anakin*
Obi-Wan: "You were the chosen one!"...blah blah...
This would have sped up the whole duel sequence and we could have walked out of the movie theatre 10 minutes faster. We all knew how it would end anyway. 😄
Besides, it would have been an awesome tribute to Episode II: Attack of the Clones. 😄
Thoughts?

Whoever took this post seriously... my condolences.This post was meant to make fun of how Anakin's line from AOTC actually could have been used here: "Not again; Obi-Wan's gonna kill me"
You guys are far too uptight about Star Wars....for crying out loud, I loved the duel. Loosen up, realize it's just a movie, and don't start bickering when I have a bit of fun. It just shows how pathetic you are, taking a movie so seriously.

The cut scene of Obi Wan holding Anakin's saber on the table in the Mustafar control room is simply poor editing of a lot of fight footage. Anakin/Vader is choking Obi-Wan who has his own familiar new Ep IV style light saber, cut to Anakin's determined face, cut back to Obi-Wan looking up at Anakin and now Anakin's saber is in Obi's hand in the same position his own saber was in just a second before, cut back and now Obi has his own saber again.
Just poor quality control on GL's part and having seen him in action (during documentaries), I could see him going, "That looks good. It happens so fast no one but the real geeky fans will notice it. It's not worth refilming a stand in shot or CGI'ing the saber."
