the first 3 movies (4,5, and 6) were made in 1977 and used toys to make a lot of the scenes we would use CGI for today which makes it even cooler! And cause Star Wars toys to sell like crazy!
the lightsaber is a kind of laser sword. Normal lasers, they can pass right through eachother. So, this is a type of laser that is, what is called, impermeable (kind of)......it is, in a manner of thinking, a SOLID laser beam that is a couple feet long.......and as for what happened to Obi-won Kenobi......he didn't give up.......he quickly put himself into a state of meditation to be able to become a force ghost........Darth Vader was confused, because a light saber is NOT suppose to blink a person out of existence like that......that is why he was stepping his foot on the robs, as if to say "what the fuck just happened here?????"
Fun fact about the last Obi-wan vs Anakin fight: their full speed was not sped up or edited to make them seem faster. the two actors trained and worked to make that fight epic.
I’ve heard that a little bit of the Obi-Wan Darth Maul fight after Qui Gon died actually had to be slowed down a bit. I could be wrong about that though.
The thing I respect the most about this video is the "I don't want spoilers" line, because that means what he's seen so far has hooked him enough that he's going to now watch the movies, which is always welcome.

"It's like they are fighting in Hell or something." I believe that is very much the effect George Lucas was going for. (In essence, an Angel - Anikin, being "cast down" & becoming the Devil - Vader)
@@RebelGaming4U Palpatine was always a sith though? They probably meant that Anakin symbolises Lucifer, the former angel who fell from grace and became the devil
Nick Gillard, and I didn't know he taught the lotr cast. But now that i think of it he is from New Zealand and that's where they filmed lotr. Awesome. 2 of my favorite franchises.
@@RebelGaming4Uno nick gillard only did stunts for the prequel trilogy although he was one of the German tank drivers in Indiana Jones the last crusade.

To summarize what the colors mean. Green is typically a jedi who prefers diplomacy before violence. Blue is for jedi who typically think of using their saber to make peace. Purple usually means they dabble in the dark side or have a good balance of both sides of the force. And finally red means they bled their kyber crystal wich is the power source of the saber and is a practice that sith use to make it red. And there's a few one off colors like white is a mended kyber crystal and yellow is neutral typically. (edit: to all who commented i did say it was a summarization didn't i? lmao but i did learn some new stuff about the franchise i love so i appreciate you teaching me some new star wars knowledge and btw embrace the empire...)

Or more that Samuel L Jackson has the street cred to demand the only way he will be in a Star Wars movie is if they give him a purple light saber. So then they write in a detail about him balancing the light and dark side.
Whoever edited those fight scenes for you did a great job of cutting out all the spoilers in the dialogue. You guys are in for a treat when you actually watch the movies.
The first fight between Luke and Vader was a vison warning Luke of two things. The first if he was not careful, he would follow in Vader's footsteps and the second was he was nowhere near ready to face Vader in a lightsaber dual and if he tried, he would lose (which he did). That is why when the helmet cracked it was his own face staring back at him.
@@ddg0907Bruh what? First of all why are u watching this video? It’s literally filled with so many spoilers. Secondly don’t ever look at the comments before watching a video unless your ok with being spoiled. At that point your just asking for it.
Loved the reaction 😂 from a die hard starwars fan, to see people in amazement of what I’ve found amazement in for over 2 decades is awesome. And I loved how you didn’t want to spoiled because the story runs SO deep. You guys have to watch the movies
The colors are pretty simple to explain: Green is for the good guys who's characters are talkers before they are warriors Blue are for good guys who fight to protect the good before trying to talk it out Red are the villains Purple is Samuel L. Jackson, because he wanted a purple lightsaber
The music was written and composed by John Williams for all the Star Wars films. He has the most recognizable music in all films, he also did Superman, Indiana Jones, and Jaws, just to name a few.
Fun fact: The reason mace windu ( sam Jackson) has a purple is because he straight up just asked for one and george was like "okay" because i mean its THE samuel l jackson, you cant say no
This is just what I’ve heard over the years and gathered Green- wise, strong connection to the force Blue- good fighting and dueling skills Yellow- Guard Purple- primary user of the light side but can control their dark side and use it against dark side users Red- torturing their kyber crystals to make it “bleed”. White- grey Jedi. Doesn’t use either light or dark side beliefs but instead follows their own way of the force. Can also happen when healing a previously bleeding crystal. So if a Jedi killed a sith and healed the crystal it would go from red to white.
I love more the Synthetic crystal from the Sith is more entuned to they're philosophy as an insult to the Jedi, but thinking in cold, if they decide to reconcile both legend and Disney continuity, the Synthetic is more powerful but it destroy itself after a time and it's only used to prove themself in a Fight against Jedi Knights or Jedi Masters and it's after that fight they corrupt the Crystal to created the red Natural crystal, one would last for ever
The reason why there is purple lightsaber, is that S. L. Jackson wanted purple lightsaber and George gave it to him :D Then they clarified for the Lore that purple lightsaber owners use a bit of dark side to channel it to better fight dark side users
That last fight in episode 1 was between Ewan McGregor and Ray Park. I don’t know about McGregor but Ray Park has multiple black belts and they both put in an insane amount of time training to get their fight as close to perfect as it could get. They even had to slow the fight down in editing because the producer/editor/whoever didn’t think audiences would believe they could move that fast (which is a very weird thing to think considering it’s a sci-if movie with lasers).
Light Saber battles were like a war of attrition. What you don't see is the use of the force. They created shields around themselves, used it to enhance their perception and even slow time a bit. It was about using certain styles to counter others and wearing down your opponents until they dropped their guard and made a mistake. If you read the books it describes it very well
This was beyond enjoyable. I'm so glad you guys kept mentioning the score. And the final fight between green saber luke n Vader the music is incredibly emotional. I also love how you kept looking away trying not to get spoiled. This was a great video.
it doesn't have much point to watch this without at least watching a few movies though or at least play the games lol, it just won't feel that great to watch it
Hey guys, I just thought you'd like knowing that for the Episode I fight, Duel of the Fates, they actually had to SLOW DOWN the footage of the three of them fighting because they were going so fast that the production team thought people wouldn't believe it!
Fun Fact: The Actor who plays Darth Maul (the guy with the double lightsaber) is Ray Park who is also a professional Stuntman. He did his own stunts for the movie and also did motion capture for Maul in the final season of Star Wars The Clone Wars.
My favourite Clone Wars Arc is Umbara and Season 7. What I remember about the rise of the empire was how quiet it was. During the waining hours of the clone wars, the 501. legion was discretely transfered back to Coruscant. It was a silent trip. We all what was about to happen, what we were about to do? Did we have any doubts? Any private, traitorous thoughts? Perhaps, but no one said a word. Not on the flight to Coruscant, not when ORDER 66 came down and not when we MARCHED into the JEDI TEMPLE. Not a word. Operation Knightfall, 501. Journal
A lot of the fights in the early seasons are super choppy and robotic almost, but they definitely improve over time and offer some of the coolest fights in Star Wars
Crystal colour typically refers to your resonance in and how you use the force. Green are for the people who connect to and use the living force for peaceful endeavours. The blue colour indicates that you use the force for combative aspects. Red more often than not is just associated with the Sith and the dark side. Red crystals are former jedi crystals that have undergone the "bleeding" process, where they subject the crystal to the users pain and turn it red. White is a purified crystal, meaning a crystal that was once red, but is now white. Yellow is for the jedi temple guards and force users that are also very attuned to the living force.
They bled the crystals up until the creation of the death star. The death star was powered up by the living crystals and the empire farmed them almost to extinction. When Luke and Vader meet and Luke has the green blade for the first time, it stumped Vader because Luke used a synthetic crystal, and it was green. Most sith used synthetic crystals because the living crystals were so heavily guarded by the jedi. If you don't count the Disney movies, and go by the books, there weren't real kyber crystals around anymore, and if there were any around, it was super rare.
I would love if they reconciled both notions, that in legends the Sith give they're apprentices a Synthetic Crystal that is more powerful but only last a limited time, and they use it to hunt down Jedis and corrupt they're crystals to had a natural Stable Crystal that would last until they die
I gotta say i appreciate how much you liked the first one you watched. Many people don't like that fight, which is somewhat understandable knowing what lightsaber fighting is like now. But that one was literally the very first lightsaber fight ever made, and nobody at that time even knew wtf any of that stuff was, including the actors. I appreciate the actors doing what they could to really get into it as much as they did, its so much fun. Episode 6 luke vs vader is my favorite live action duel. So much emotion and meaning in that fight.
I just want to point out that 19:17 is not just a random spinning for your eyes, as some uninitiated people might think. The reason it was put in the fight is that Obi Wan (the one in the brighter robes) trained Anakin ever since he was a little boy, he taught him everything, they were like brothers with same manners in some aspects. The spinning should just tell the audience how alike they really are, how Anakin embraced Obi Wan's fighting style so you could tell that the one was raised and taught by the other.
The prequel films were choreographed by Nick Gillard. Who is a sword master and George Lucas thought he did such a good job that Gillard actually has a scene in the third Star Wars prequel. You may have noticed that one of the red blades was Sir Christopher Lee who I believe actually holds the record for the most cinematic fights on screen. The main difference for why the Duels seam so wooden in the original trilogy versus the prequel, is because Lucas set it up where the first duel was a cyborg versus an extremely old man and then you got to see Luke progressing in his own training. During the prequel era this was a time when Jedi Knights were prominent throughout the Galaxy. At the time of episode 1 there were 10,000 Jedi Knights serving the Republic. The lightsaber colors themselves are dictated by the kyber crystals at the heart of every lightsaber. The Sith lightsabers or the dark side lightsabers have been bled by pouring a bunch of negative emotions into the kyber crystals therefore causing this red effect because the crystals cry out by bleeding. The prequels are about the fall of Darth Vader and how the Democracy of the Republic turned into the tyranny of the empire. The original trilogy is about the Redemption of Vader by his son and the destruction of the empire that Vader helped create. The downside of not watching them in chronological order you end up missing that the lightsaber that Anakin is using in that fight on Mustafar is the one that Luke loses when his hand gets chopped off on Bespin( which would later find its way into the hands of Rey) the nine film Main Saga is buffeted by three films which would be classed as Anthology films, 4 CGI series, and soon to be 5 Live action series. Also fun fact the actors Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen are actually that fast. The start of that final fight that is actually them and their natural speed that's how good they got while training for that fight
16:11 a little fact about this, the chancellor used a sith or dark side ability called force scream which actually petrified the more inexperienced force users, but could even intimidate alot of the more experienced force users
the colors so blue are jedi guardians, usually duelists, green are jedi consulars or more powerful force users, the lore behind purple has 2 meanings, so sam went to lucas and said he wanted to be able to see him in a crowd of a bunch of jedi, so lucas gave him a purple saber, the other part of the lore is that mace windu dabbles with the darkside of the force, so much that he created a lightsaber form that channels dark side energy while retaining his link to the light side, so maces colors are a mix of blue/red (purple) red is just sith, or darkside users, the lore behind that is sith kill jedi, then use the crystal of the jedi they killed and bleed it til it turns red
Those guys who you called "trash" -- they were *skilled* Jedi masters. The fact that Palpatine took them out so fast is more a testament to his skills.
Now, I just stumbled upon this channel, so I have no clue who any of you two are, but the guy to the right... If you didn't want to be spoiled, WHY ON EARTH DID YOU AGREE TO WATCH THIS?!?
17:10 You have to watch the whole scene to understand why Anakin attacked him... he needed the Emperor alive to help him save Padme, he acted in desperation
The dual bladed lightsaber Darth Maul uses is called a Saber Staff and is one of the deadliest in star wars and also something if it were made in real life would be extremely effective in combat
Assuming it's made right and you have proper training with it. It's very dangerous to use, but with skill and training it covers your entire front (and wards off the back) while also sending a flurry of blows. The only problem would be weight, but the saberstaff doesn't much so they don't have to worry. Us is a different question.
Anyone catch them saying “no way he’s dying like that” when kenobi was getting choked by Ankin, and the first clip or one of them was seeing kenobi “give up” in their eyes😂
Fun trivia for 16:32, the actor playing Palpatine (the old guy) didn’t know that he would be doing a saber fight until 10 minutes before they shot that scene. Samuel Jackson spent those 10 minutes teaching him the choreography, which is why that duel is often panned as being the worst duel until the garbage-tier shit that Disney pushed on us
0:59 Darth Vader vs Obi Wan Kenobi 2:10 Fake Vader vs Luke Skywalker 2:50 Luke Skywalker vs Darth Vader 5:40 Luke Skywalker vs Darth Vader 7:18 Qui-Gon Jinn vs Darth Maul 7:42 Qui-Gon Jinn & Obi Wan Kenobi vs Darth Maul 11:20 Obi Wan Kenobi & Anakin Skywalker vs Count Dooku 12:41 Yoda vs Count Dooku 13:33 Obi Wan Kenobi & Anakin Skywalker vs Count Dooku 14:42 Obi Wan Kenobi vs General Grievous 15:57 Mace Windu vs Darth Sidius 17:14 Yoda vs Darth Sidius 17:56 Obi Wan Kenobi vs Anakin Skywalker
The colors of lightsabers do hold significance and apply to the character the colors are given to. Blue, green, purple, red, yellow, orange, white, and black. I think there are more, but they all hold some meaning
in episode 1 the actor for darth maul, ray park, is an actual gymnast, stuntman and trained martial artist so those jumps and flips, with the aide of springboards and trampolines, are 100% real and 100% all him. all while holding a double bladed lightsaber.
For the Anakin vs Obi fight seeing people not know Star Wars watch it thinking how cool and crazy it is. But once you see the sheer emotion from the background with this fight it's hard to see cool and crazy, but rather sad and intense
To answer your question: Lightsabers are essentially rods of hot plasma (i.e. lava). Hence why they glow and can cut through near anything as well as instantly cauterize wounds they make.
Red is rage, blue is defending, green is peace, purple is the mixture of rage and good. Blue and red making mace windu apart of the light side while showing no mercy
You guys need to watch the movies for context. It’s really exciting watching new starwars folk start there journey. Just ignore the sequels…. I know I wish I did
It’s really cool to see people that aren’t exactly fans enjoy the duels because they truely are a treat on the eyes and if you invest yourself into the movies they become even better. Also the lava planet that Anakin and obi-wan fight on is Mustafar which actually holds great significance in the entire Saga but I won’t dare spoil anything in case you do want to watch the movies.
The movies came out in a weird order btw. The newer 3 were the prequel trilogy to the 1st 3 released. So episodes 4, 5, and 6 came out before 1, 2, and 3. The 1st 3 movies (movies 4,5,6) were during the years of the galactic empires rule. The 4th through 6th movies (movies 1,2,3) were during the clone wars.
16:50 I'm pretty sure someone's already answered this (this video is a year old), but - Green is for people proficent in the Force. - Blue is for people proficent in lightsaber combat (or "Knights") - Red is when a lightsaber crystal is forced to feel pain, fear, anger (all traits of the Dark Side) - I'm not sure what purple means, but it's kinda a middle ground between red/blue. The only reason it exists is because Samuel L. Jackson asked for it, and no character has had a purple saber since (at least in Canon).
Luke has a green one because he made it in between the 5th and 6th movie. Episode 1 that's a double bladed lightsaber. 10:00 to 10:38 is the first time two lightsaber wielders were young and at the top of their prime when facing off. As far as colors for lightsabers there is Gold, Blue, Green, White, Black and Purple. The way they get their lightsaber is a fully trained jedi will have to make their own and they will go to a certain planet and get what's called a kyber crystal and that is what will give their lightsaber their color and each color has their own meaning depending on the Jedi. Purple is a mix of Red and Blue meaning a perfect balance of light and dark side. Blue is basically for fighters who use the force to compliment their fighting style Green is for those powerful in the force and study the inner workings of the force Gold was used for those who helped people and relied on skills other than the force (mostly used by the guardians of the jedi temple) Black there is only one lightsaber that was a black color made by a jedi (to learn more, watch the seasons of the madalorian) Red is not an actual color, a dark side (sith) user would use the dark side of the force to make a the crystal used to power their lightsaber bleed and turn red White like red it's not an actual color, a powerful jedi can get a white one by purifying a red crystal and taking the bleed affect away.
Blue and Green are the most common they are often connected a bit to your personality or nature because "the sword chooses it's master" and all that. There's also Yellow but those have more or less died out in the age of the clone wars apart from the Jedi Temple Guards. Red is simply a formerly blue or green crystal that was made to "bleed" using the dark side of the force, which turned it red. Purple is a Blue crystal which was only partially bled, it's on the edge of good evil without falling to the dark side. There's also synthetic crystals (a lightsaber's color depends on it's crystal) which have no real meaning they are used for a lack of real crystals due to one side of a war having a monopoly on crystals and making them hard to get or completely unavailable.
It’s amazing watching the original fights, then the Prequels were fantastic shows. Also, love how you’re watching ever fight and worried about spoilers
The reason why sabers can be different colors is because: When someone gets their kyber crystal, (what makes a lightsaber lightsaber) the crystal chooses a color based on your personality at the time. Basically Green is for people that dont use violence as a first option, Blue is for people that will use violence but only for good, Red is for people that are pure evil, Purple is for people that can be good or bad.

You should also watch all of the Clone Wars and Rebels show battles. There are some amazing ones among them.
Clone Wars and Rebels is so underrated and they are both legendary
They just did
My favourite Clone Wars Arc is Umbara and Season 7.
What I remember about the rise of the empire was how quiet it was. During the waining hours of the clone wars, the 501. legion was discretely transfered back to Coruscant. It was a silent trip. We all what was about to happen, what we were about to do? Did we have any doubts? Any private, traitorous thoughts? Perhaps, but no one said a word. Not on the flight to Coruscant, not when ORDER 66 came down and not when we MARCHED into the JEDI TEMPLE. Not a word.
Operation Knightfall, 501. Journal
@@DarthVader-rd5qh Wouldn't call Clone Wars "underrated" but Rebels definitely is though.
A lot of the fights in the early seasons are super choppy and robotic almost, but they definitely improve over time and offer some of the coolest fights in Star Wars
I love this video because you say what pretty much every star wars fan ever has said once in their life especially the "the purple lightsabre is fire"
Crystal colour typically refers to your resonance in and how you use the force. Green are for the people who connect to and use the living force for peaceful endeavours. The blue colour indicates that you use the force for combative aspects. Red more often than not is just associated with the Sith and the dark side. Red crystals are former jedi crystals that have undergone the "bleeding" process, where they subject the crystal to the users pain and turn it red. White is a purified crystal, meaning a crystal that was once red, but is now white. Yellow is for the jedi temple guards and force users that are also very attuned to the living force.
They bled the crystals up until the creation of the death star. The death star was powered up by the living crystals and the empire farmed them almost to extinction. When Luke and Vader meet and Luke has the green blade for the first time, it stumped Vader because Luke used a synthetic crystal, and it was green. Most sith used synthetic crystals because the living crystals were so heavily guarded by the jedi. If you don't count the Disney movies, and go by the books, there weren't real kyber crystals around anymore, and if there were any around, it was super rare.
I would love if they reconciled both notions, that in legends the Sith give they're apprentices a Synthetic Crystal that is more powerful but only last a limited time, and they use it to hunt down Jedis and corrupt they're crystals to had a natural Stable Crystal that would last until they die
"ah fuck just when i looked" bro was looking for the past 2 minutes
I gotta say i appreciate how much you liked the first one you watched. Many people don't like that fight, which is somewhat understandable knowing what lightsaber fighting is like now. But that one was literally the very first lightsaber fight ever made, and nobody at that time even knew wtf any of that stuff was, including the actors. I appreciate the actors doing what they could to really get into it as much as they did, its so much fun.
Episode 6 luke vs vader is my favorite live action duel. So much emotion and meaning in that fight.
I just want to point out that 19:17 is not just a random spinning for your eyes, as some uninitiated people might think. The reason it was put in the fight is that Obi Wan (the one in the brighter robes) trained Anakin ever since he was a little boy, he taught him everything, they were like brothers with same manners in some aspects. The spinning should just tell the audience how alike they really are, how Anakin embraced Obi Wan's fighting style so you could tell that the one was raised and taught by the other.
And how they were so in sync that their blades never touchd
@21:05 “he’s sonning him in this one” is the more accurate than he knew 😂
Their praise for the music is awesome! John Williams is a genius
“He’s son-ing him in this one.” - That’s the perfect quote for this scene in multiple ways.
"he's sonning him on this one" is the best unintentional joke i've ever heard
“damn Yoda’s fighting that n*gga who was always chillin” 😂
The prequel films were choreographed by Nick Gillard. Who is a sword master and George Lucas thought he did such a good job that Gillard actually has a scene in the third Star Wars prequel. You may have noticed that one of the red blades was Sir Christopher Lee who I believe actually holds the record for the most cinematic fights on screen. The main difference for why the Duels seam so wooden in the original trilogy versus the prequel, is because Lucas set it up where the first duel was a cyborg versus an extremely old man and then you got to see Luke progressing in his own training. During the prequel era this was a time when Jedi Knights were prominent throughout the Galaxy. At the time of episode 1 there were 10,000 Jedi Knights serving the Republic. The lightsaber colors themselves are dictated by the kyber crystals at the heart of every lightsaber. The Sith lightsabers or the dark side lightsabers have been bled by pouring a bunch of negative emotions into the kyber crystals therefore causing this red effect because the crystals cry out by bleeding. The prequels are about the fall of Darth Vader and how the Democracy of the Republic turned into the tyranny of the empire. The original trilogy is about the Redemption of Vader by his son and the destruction of the empire that Vader helped create. The downside of not watching them in chronological order you end up missing that the lightsaber that Anakin is using in that fight on Mustafar is the one that Luke loses when his hand gets chopped off on Bespin( which would later find its way into the hands of Rey) the nine film Main Saga is buffeted by three films which would be classed as Anthology films, 4 CGI series, and soon to be 5 Live action series. Also fun fact the actors Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen are actually that fast. The start of that final fight that is actually them and their natural speed that's how good they got while training for that fight
Seeing you guys react to this first hand. Brings back my childhood when I first watched it
Watching this made me feel like I was watching these duels for the first time. Even though I had seen them over a thousand times 😅
Grew up watching star wars my whole life can't wait for you to watch the old republic trailers all in order
16:11 a little fact about this, the chancellor used a sith or dark side ability called force scream which actually petrified the more inexperienced force users, but could even intimidate alot of the more experienced force users
the colors
so blue are jedi guardians, usually duelists, green are jedi consulars or more powerful force users, the lore behind purple has 2 meanings, so sam went to lucas and said he wanted to be able to see him in a crowd of a bunch of jedi, so lucas gave him a purple saber, the other part of the lore is that mace windu dabbles with the darkside of the force, so much that he created a lightsaber form that channels dark side energy while retaining his link to the light side, so maces colors are a mix of blue/red (purple) red is just sith, or darkside users, the lore behind that is sith kill jedi, then use the crystal of the jedi they killed and bleed it til it turns red
Those guys who you called "trash" -- they were *skilled* Jedi masters. The fact that Palpatine took them out so fast is more a testament to his skills.
That scream he let out as he lunged towards them was a Dark Side Force technique that stunned them.
@@HideousConformity a force scream. Vader let one out as he found out padme died that’s why everything around him crumbled and he said noooo
@@HideousConformity 😂💀
@@THEFuentes97 In case you think it was a joke: th-cam.com/video/O39K60bi94E/w-d-xo.html
It would be great to have you two in the Star Wars fan community!
2:08 Just so you know, that duel wasn't real. It was just a vision that Luke had and it showed that Luke's worst enemy is himself.
“They goin crazy though” watching the new hope fight 😂😂
The music adds so much emotion to the fights
Guy on the right: I can’t look and spoil it! (Can’t look away)😂
"YOOOOOODAAAAA"
"I thought you knew nothin' about Star Wars, bro."
This shi* had me dying
Now, I just stumbled upon this channel, so I have no clue who any of you two are, but the guy to the right... If you didn't want to be spoiled, WHY ON EARTH DID YOU AGREE TO WATCH THIS?!?
17:10 You have to watch the whole scene to understand why Anakin attacked him... he needed the Emperor alive to help him save Padme, he acted in desperation
‘Damn he sonnin him in this one’ little do they know how right they are
The dual bladed lightsaber Darth Maul uses is called a Saber Staff and is one of the deadliest in star wars and also something if it were made in real life would be extremely effective in combat
Assuming it's made right and you have proper training with it. It's very dangerous to use, but with skill and training it covers your entire front (and wards off the back) while also sending a flurry of blows. The only problem would be weight, but the saberstaff doesn't much so they don't have to worry. Us is a different question.
Anyone catch them saying “no way he’s dying like that” when kenobi was getting choked by Ankin, and the first clip or one of them was seeing kenobi “give up” in their eyes😂
I have been so waiting for a video reaction like this.
“He son-in him this one” little does he know 🤣🤣
Fun trivia for 16:32, the actor playing Palpatine (the old guy) didn’t know that he would be doing a saber fight until 10 minutes before they shot that scene. Samuel Jackson spent those 10 minutes teaching him the choreography, which is why that duel is often panned as being the worst duel until the garbage-tier shit that Disney pushed on us

as someone who grew up on star wars, this made me happy
The colors of lightsabers do hold significance and apply to the character the colors are given to.
Blue, green, purple, red, yellow, orange, white, and black. I think there are more, but they all hold some meaning
The inner Star Wars nerd in me wants to be in the room with them giving context to the fights.
in episode 1 the actor for darth maul, ray park, is an actual gymnast, stuntman and trained martial artist so those jumps and flips, with the aide of springboards and trampolines, are 100% real and 100% all him. all while holding a double bladed lightsaber.
For the Anakin vs Obi fight seeing people not know Star Wars watch it thinking how cool and crazy it is.
But once you see the sheer emotion from the background with this fight it's hard to see cool and crazy, but rather sad and intense
To answer your question: Lightsabers are essentially rods of hot plasma (i.e. lava). Hence why they glow and can cut through near anything as well as instantly cauterize wounds they make.
Red is rage, blue is defending, green is peace, purple is the mixture of rage and good. Blue and red making mace windu apart of the light side while showing no mercy
"Thats like some Itachi shit". No sir. Itachi was on that Vader shit.
You guys need to watch the movies for context. It’s really exciting watching new starwars folk start there journey. Just ignore the sequels…. I know I wish I did
Coming soon for sure.
“Who the f*** this green goblin, man?” Come on my man 🤣 that was too funny
Samuel Jackson has a purple light saber because he asked for one
“Damn , he’s son’in him in this one.” Who is gonna tell him?!? 😂
Wait until they find out the first fight and the final fight are with the same 2 guys
We already watched all movies, check out our playlist
Thanks for really watching all Lightsaber duels in Star Wars 🙏
Watching the movies in order brings much more context to all the fights.
It’s really cool to see people that aren’t exactly fans enjoy the duels because they truely are a treat on the eyes and if you invest yourself into the movies they become even better. Also the lava planet that Anakin and obi-wan fight on is Mustafar which actually holds great significance in the entire Saga but I won’t dare spoil anything in case you do want to watch the movies.
11:14 Yup he's certainly never coming back after being cut in half, 100% 🙂

The fact they have never heard the line " no I am your father" just from ordinary pop culture
Omg you haven't seen this come on 🤣😂 you guys are in for a ride, telling by the reaction which was good, may the force be with you 🤘🏽
The movies came out in a weird order btw. The newer 3 were the prequel trilogy to the 1st 3 released. So episodes 4, 5, and 6 came out before 1, 2, and 3. The 1st 3 movies (movies 4,5,6) were during the years of the galactic empires rule. The 4th through 6th movies (movies 1,2,3) were during the clone wars.
Lightsabers are beams of pure energy.
I love how if you watch in release order the saber fights get better and better until you’re watching the best fight scene ever
“They jumping him now” 🤣🤣🤣
The left guy absolutly enjoyed obiwas vs anakin :D
I have seen comments about them not speeding it up. Infact they had to slow some of them down. They were just that good
"I dont wanna get spoiled" You knew what you were getting into, what did you expect. Coulda sat it out
16:50 I'm pretty sure someone's already answered this (this video is a year old), but
- Green is for people proficent in the Force.
- Blue is for people proficent in lightsaber combat (or "Knights")
- Red is when a lightsaber crystal is forced to feel pain, fear, anger (all traits of the Dark Side)
- I'm not sure what purple means, but it's kinda a middle ground between red/blue. The only reason it exists is because Samuel L. Jackson asked for it, and no character has had a purple saber since (at least in Canon).
“Major character died and we got spoiled” it’s been out for 20 years 😂
“He’s sonnin him in this one 😂”
Luke has a green one because he made it in between the 5th and 6th movie.
Episode 1 that's a double bladed lightsaber. 10:00 to 10:38 is the first time two lightsaber wielders were young and at the top of their prime when facing off.
As far as colors for lightsabers there is Gold, Blue, Green, White, Black and Purple. The way they get their lightsaber is a fully trained jedi will have to make their own and they will go to a certain planet and get what's called a kyber crystal and that is what will give their lightsaber their color and each color has their own meaning depending on the Jedi.
Purple is a mix of Red and Blue meaning a perfect balance of light and dark side.
Blue is basically for fighters who use the force to compliment their fighting style
Green is for those powerful in the force and study the inner workings of the force
Gold was used for those who helped people and relied on skills other than the force (mostly used by the guardians of the jedi temple)
Black there is only one lightsaber that was a black color made by a jedi (to learn more, watch the seasons of the madalorian)
Red is not an actual color, a dark side (sith) user would use the dark side of the force to make a the crystal used to power their lightsaber bleed and turn red
White like red it's not an actual color, a powerful jedi can get a white one by purifying a red crystal and taking the bleed affect away.
Blue and Green are the most common they are often connected a bit to your personality or nature because "the sword chooses it's master" and all that. There's also Yellow but those have more or less died out in the age of the clone wars apart from the Jedi Temple Guards.
Red is simply a formerly blue or green crystal that was made to "bleed" using the dark side of the force, which turned it red.
Purple is a Blue crystal which was only partially bled, it's on the edge of good evil without falling to the dark side.
There's also synthetic crystals (a lightsaber's color depends on it's crystal) which have no real meaning they are used for a lack of real crystals due to one side of a war having a monopoly on crystals and making them hard to get or completely unavailable.
It’s amazing watching the original fights, then the Prequels were fantastic shows. Also, love how you’re watching ever fight and worried about spoilers
For reference the second fight was more like a bad dream, and robot hands are things so hence they get their hands back
after decades of watching Star Wars since early childhood I still react like this
The reason why sabers can be different colors is because: When someone gets their kyber crystal, (what makes a lightsaber lightsaber) the crystal chooses a color based on your personality at the time. Basically Green is for people that dont use violence as a first option, Blue is for people that will use violence but only for good, Red is for people that are pure evil, Purple is for people that can be good or bad.
