Which Duel do you like better?

Do you like the duel at the end of TPM b/t Darth Maul and the jedi.....or the one at the end of Clones b/t Dooku and the jedi?
I'm not really talking individual matchups like Obi wan v Maul or Dooku vs only Yoda.....I'm talking overall sweeping battle here.
BTW feel free to say your favorite match up in addition .....

The so-called "Duel of the Fates" lightsbaer match between a jedi master, his apprentice, and a sith lord is for me the ULTIMATE battle of the first five films of Star Wars!

well the duel of the fates was better than most battle scenes. but i wished yoda vs. dooku was longer. but duel of fates was good. and the dual-saber a plus😄

I liked the duel of fates better because it seemed longer.

Yes it had a lot going for it! I never seen people jumping around and sparring like that before!

...wish i could do that

You're telling me! If I tried to do something like that, I'd knock something over!

I think it is unfair to compare the two in many ways. In TPM, the lightsabre fight was the huge mega-ultra centrepiece of the film. Who cared about the rest of the fighting with that going on, huh?

In AOTC, I am not saying the duel was unimportant, but the centrepiece was really the Arena battle preceeding it. More effort went into that, I feel.

Remember, that Episode III will almost certainly have a centrepiece duel (between Obi-Wan and Anakin) just as TPM did. And that duel will have to TOP the one in TPM. I think from a creative point of view they couldn't have that staggering duel in TPM, and then top it in AOTC and then try to top that AGAIN in episode 3. So the AOTC duelling was competent, and it had the Yoda element, but I do not think it was ever meant to be TPM spectacular.

Duel of the Fates was nice and long.....and very flashy

That's why I like it. It's not like if you blink for a second, the whole thing will be done with,here. There's a lot at stake during the duel. This is where things start being puished into the direction that we know the films have to go in order to connect with the OT.

hm...wonder if GL would add another dual-saber into a fight😄

Hard to say. As already expressed here, anything is possible when it comes to George Lucas and Star Wars! Just prior to four years ago, I would have never thought any more films would be made.

I Agree !...

Duel of the Fates was cool! Second only to Yoda in AOTC. 😉

I see.....I like the fact that it was longer

Yeah that too.

I liked the fact that I had a double lightsaber!

I like the fact that Maul didn't cut off any appendages ...whilest fighting w/ a double sided lightsaber

Me too.

That could have been funny...but really bad
