I've had this for about six months now.  Arguably the best lightsaber dueling I've ever seen outside the official movies.

The video is as old as the bible.

Also rather retarded by my opinion.

I prefer the first one, whilst it might not have all the effects of the second, it's a lot more powerful emotionally.

As I was always interested in ARPA reading this shouldn't be such an embarassment...but postin the link is a definite giveaway of how much of a geek I am without a life to attend:

Seems to me that guy has got his real life confused with his movies. Movies aren't about making the combat look 'real' they are about making it look good.

holy ****, that's some epic-quality dueling there!

Which one?

 
I WAS trying to find that video of George-Michael Bluth from Arrested Development doing a pathetic star wars fight, but I failed. Miserably.

I reckon the one Ilya posted was the best choreographed. The family-to-return-to theme was pretty laughable
though.
Watch out for the Guns! They'll getcha!

Well, I think that was just to justify making the movie in the first place, a sort of Ego-satisfier, but the martial arts displayed in that one are incredible, particuarly where the guy with 2 sabres spins one around the other by the blade, that was pretty amazing.

The first one, The Art of the Saber, was excellent!  Except for one nitpicky technical detail...Those lightsaber activation switches are touch sensitive, so when the guy drops his saber in the end it should shut off.  But that's just me nitpicking.  The fighting was in-cred-i-ble!!! :D :D :D

Yeah, I know, incurable geek...That's me!

The other two were good though.  The second one, the ending is hilarious...Or maybe I'm sick and twisted...

The third though was a little creepy... :nervous:...But I like creepy...So it's all good.

True. Plus, I would have thought it impossible to prop yourself up on a lightsaber... I mean, wouldn't it just sort of sink into the ground like it wasn't there and you'd get a mouth full of dirt?

they were probably using the toy lightsabers and edited the blades to look like actual lightsabers. the toy lightsaber's hilts are massive, and those hilts in the movie looked massive.

The first one was pretty interesting to watch. They actually looked like they had some clue to what they were doing.

But you can see heaps of interesting and real stuff akin to that by going to a martial arts tournament. :)
I'm still laughing at my mate's bruises from the other day's tournament. :p

As opposed to...real ones?
