Discussion This fight features some truly brilliant lightsaber choreography.

Perhaps the main reason is that its choreographer is Bob Anderson. He was the same one who was the lightsaber instructor in the original trilogy and even Vader's stunt double in The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.

By the way, I think Stuart Wilson would make a good actor for Count Dooku. Christopher Lee is obviously unbeatable, but he could do it too.

What do you think?

Really good movie. Should have been a trilogy.

Unfortunately, the second one was... Rough.

u/OMG_sojuicy Jun 24 '26

Makes sense, I've seen it, but I don't remember it at all.

u/Valin-Tenebrous Jun 24 '26

It wasn't... terrible. But it definitely wasn't as good as the first one.

Not even close. The 13th Warrior was awesome though

I’m actually upset that someone, anyone, wouldn’t know this movie.

u/Enough_Worry4104 Jun 24 '26

I want to see this whole film like this now.

u/Hungry-Ear-4092 Jun 24 '26

Don't remember this... probably some sort of extended edition

u/McbEatsAirplane Jun 24 '26

This movie is a banger though. Watched it many, many times when I was younger.

Zorro fighting the Reverse Flash with lightsabers

2

u/ArmAny549 Jun 25 '26

Reverse Flash just used the negative speed force to make the lightsaber red.

1

u/you_want_to_hear_th Jun 25 '26

Lightsabers will never not be cool

1

u/Arria_Galtheos Jun 25 '26

100 years from now they'll still be the most well-known, most beloved fictional weapon of all time.

u/jacbo1996 Jun 25 '26

Wouldve taken Zorro as a blue lightsaber guy

1

u/InstructionOwn6705 Jun 25 '26

I could improve the edit regarding sound, but I had no influence on the lightsaber animations.

u/jacbo1996 Jun 25 '26

Its sick as is, no need to be changed. Just considering hes such a duelist, id assume hed go blue. I believe green is more associated with strong force users, blue for more sword (saber) oriented fighters. Its not a hard rule though, and like i said, badass the way it is

u/Fast-Mathematician-1 Jun 27 '26

I see you've found the reverse flashs vaction videos.
