  • A behind the scenes look at what went into the lightsaber stunts and choreography in Star Wars Episode III. Edited together with mostly-edited footage from the Revenge Of The Sith DVD featurettes. I don't own this stuff.

    This is a great edit. It's frustrating that many people can't praise the content without bashing the new films. Like, this is how it used to be with annoying Original Trilogy fans. Legit couldn't go into a comment section for anything 'Star Wars' without having to read a bunch of people moaning and groaning about the prequels. "They ruined Star Wars", "Bad writing", "Plot holes", Terrible acting", "They fundamentally failed to capture what Star Wars is all about", yadda yadda etc., same stuff. Regardless of the specific opinions, can we not be a little better than the last generation of peeved fans that didn't get what they wanted for whatever reason? Geez, there really is no escape...

    The fact that Hayden and Ewan are casually living their lives with irl Jedi lightsaber fighting skills is crazy

    You may never see a more perfect lightsaber duel in the Star Wars franchise again

    It just makes their dual so much cooler knowing the actors are actually doing it and are actually that fast and skilled

    Makes me appreciate Ewan and Hayden for spending their time to train for this.

    Say what you want about the overall quality of the prequels but no one can deny how hard those two worked and how well they fought.

    They really really cared about this movie. I admit to being dismissive of the prequels but Revenge Of The Sith was flat out awesome. Hayden got to show off his acting chops for real and the fact that they spent months mastering one of the most important fight scenes in the entire franchise shows how much they loved what they were working on.

    I wholeheartedly believe that it is absolutely incredible how Hayden and Ewen did all the stunts themselves that fast. That level of commitment is just phenomenal

    The sequel films fail to understand the physics of a lightsaber. They make it look like they're swinging 20lbs metal swords and they have no technique.

    Hayden - My character is meant to be the chosen one and is supposed to be one of the better Jedi as far as fighting goes.

  • @hayes4762

    Hayden and Ewan pulled off the longest on screen sword fight in cinematic history.

    I really do hope that this changes people’s mind about Hayden. Yeah this came out years ago but the level of work they put into this. Hayden just did as the director and writer George Lucas told him to.

    The way Ian goes "out of his way" to acknowledge just how talented Ewan and Hayden are is always one of my favorite moments from this featurette. Because it really cant be overstated how absolutely lucky we were to get those two men in the roles they played. They were perfect. Theyre living legends.

    I like how they’re doing their stunt work in jeans, absolute legends

    Now I see why the lightsaber fights in the newer movies have been so bad.. I mean look at the practice and dedication these actors have. This is what made the prequel trilogy really stand out in my eyes. Regardless of the writing and the dialog you have to admit that revenge of the sith has THE BEST lightsaber fights of all time. We need more Star Wars content with people dedicated to creating awesome lightsaber fights. It really makes a difference.
