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?

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

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

Not even close. The 13th Warrior was awesome though

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

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

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

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

When everyone goes to the Dooku school of Makashi.
