I think its a fair leap that the light saber battles in the OT were less flashy because Vader was so much better than his opponents in the first two and his heart wasn't in it in the last one. I'm mean its not remotely true....it was the limitations of the time but you could justify it that way to your kids or something and they'd buy it.

Rebels is fun. It's nothing life changing. But it's fun.

Yep. Though I do love Obi/Qui/Maul.

Obi-Wan vs Anakin from Revenge of the Sith is a really good battle.

Yeah, that one's good too. Not as good as the one in TPM, though, I'd say. But yeah.

I think that's the worst. Of all of them. Over rehearsed.

So, going by all the posts so far, ALL the lightsaber battles are good except for AotC. Right?

The Obi Wan/Anakin one is also terrible. especially when they hit the lava bullshit. The beginning of the fight is fine though.

I kind of like the neo-noir feel that Coruscant at night has in Attack of the Clones. William Gibson should have designed and directed it, but still. I dig it.
