i amn not hung up on martial arts flicks..i talked to an actual person who had lived and trained with shaolin monks for most of his life......you are right about the two bladed sword being harder to master...but, and he confirmed it to me, if you master the dual blade, and you are fighting someone with a single blade, they wouldnt be able to touch you. two blades means twice as many attacks. your opponent will spend most of the time blocking your attacks......
oh, and if i was a warlord and had to train a legion of troops the art of swordfighting, i would go with the single blade, because it is EASIER to learn........but, if i were a master at the dual blades, i'd be hard pressed to find anyone who could come close to being my equal. like it or not, its a fact.

Double bladed swords are a more defensive style of swordsfighting rather than an offensive style
so you are right and a TRAINED martial artist who has trained for 20 plus years is wrong? is that what you are telling me?
whatever...
and i am pretty sure you have never been in a major battle involving swordplay, so it is crazy for you to suggest tactics in such a situation....i know a reliable source when i talk to one...
lets out it this way...if you wanted to learn to play soccer, who are you gonna ask...pele or some guy who SAYS he knows how to play?
Well in EpII anakin wuz getting really frustrated with kenobi's conservative decisions (the gaurding of padme), so i think he's just gonna snap when kenobi instructs him to do sumthin and years and tension builds up n he cant take it any mo, and then just snaps and attacks obi 1 (with obi 1 stugglin 2 overcome and subdue anakin). however this may not be the main duel. this mite just b a sign that anakin is loosing it.
then later on in the move when anakin is seduced by the darkside, obi 1 tries to save him and then realising that he could handle ob 1, the final duel commences.
he also mayb fued by such things as being forbidden to see da pregnant padme until the threat is nuetrilised.
