Best fight scene

Duel of Fates, Battle of the Heroes, and the final duel in the Throne Room.

Duel of Fates imo. I also enjoy the final battle of the Old Jedi Order vs. the New Sith (Yoda and Kenobi vs. Palpy and Vader).

Easily Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan vs Maul or Obi-Wan vs Darth Vader(RotS). It had everything, and I don't care if it doesn't look like "real sword fighting" completely ignoring that all the combat styles were made by a real swordsman, and that this is a movie. Had the best settings, choreography, and music. Really can't do any better using actual people.

The final duel in RotS. It was the best of both worlds (PT and OT) - real choreography and impressive swordfighting, like the one you get in TPM, and the emotional atmosphere of Luke vs Vader in RotJ.

Lots of pathos in the Mustafar duel but goddamn is it overwhelming. It's a lot like the pod race in TPM for me; it just drags on and on and on and on and on.

Other good ones are Vizsla vs Maul, Dooku's AOTC fights, Kit vs Grievous, Jango vs Obi-Wan, and Ahsoka vs Barriss.

Surprised by how mow many people are saying the Anakin/Obi-Wan duel, as I thought it was pretty terrible. It doesn’t look like two sword masters going at it but rather two baton twirlers trying to spin their glow sticks faster than the other. And then it has them performing ridiculous stunts such as swinging like Tarzan… It’s borderline comical. By contrast, the duel in TPM actually felt like a battle. It was intense and never overstayed its welcome.

Didn't really feel like that to me because of how they were interchanging between that and the Sidious/Yoda fight.

Plus I found the end pretty emotional shrug

lol

QGJ/OBW vs Maul.

Duel of the fates sound track is my fave. It has more urgency than any other imo.

Okay, bare with me. I thought the first duel between Kanan and Inquisitor was great. It was a great intro to a reoccurring villian that blended stylish swordplay with a feeling of hopelessness. The Inquisitor really did make it feel like they were in over their heads and say what you will about the level of the characters themselves but tge scene was structured and executed nicely

👆 Pretty much summed up my thoughts on it.
