No this IS for the VS. forum.
It's Anakin/Obi-Wan vs. Yoda/Palpatine so it should be moved.
Anyways, I'm not a fan of Yoda in lightsaber duels, it looks much too stupid to see this slow old frog suddenly turn into a ball of energy and jumping all over the place.
Anakin/Obi-Wan was emotional and full of spectacular athleticism.
The Yoda/Sidious was fantastic. Two Force giants battling each other? What more could you want? It was a spectacular battle. Never have we seen the huge power of the Force such we did then. They were throwing senate pods as if they were frisbees. Lightning blasts, and Yoda catches it and throws it back. Fantastic. "Pointless and boring"? What have you been smoking?
And it was a "teachable moment" too. Yoda and Sidious battled to a draw. But Yoda says he failed. Yoda wanted to defeat Sids, but because it was a draw, he says he failed. That's honesty and leadership for you.
It was a useless battle, it didn't decide anything. The setting wasn't nice. The only thing I can remember about the battle is the pods and that wasn't exactly spectacular.. Overall it was an uninteresting fight in my opinion.
Also, Sidious looked like some dumb mutant fighting an even dumber CGI thing. I'd pick the office fight anyday over the dumb pod fight.
I don't understand what kids see in that fight anyway.
If something like this \/ ever came out you people would probably be overwhelmed.

You said it.
I like watching the Yoda/Sidious fight, but i wish sidious would just stop his stupid cackling like a moron the whole time. He never shuts up. It gets really irritating by the end of that fight. Also, i would like to know how Yoda ended up at the bottem of the arena instead of on the pod with sidious, the major difference in the duel (the change in terrain advantage) happened while Obi wan was fighting Anakin, so we don't know if Sidious forced Yoda into the losing ground, or if Yoda went to ground for some reason of his own.
I think, (because of those two things) i like Obi/vs. Anakin better, though everytime Vader opens his mouth to speak it detracts from it. I just can't stand Hayden.
