I bet you're wondering how I ended up here, well it's a funny story...

was sheev pretending to suck? I'm pretty sure he could have nuked that nigger easily was he just waiting for Anakin to show up and mind fuck him?

BAH GAWD STONE COLD STONE COLD

Light sabers are hot, the rapid expansion of the glass would probably be enough to smash it.
That is if you were pointing out that it is wrong for the glass to break.

it bugs me that the sabers dont cast light on people in the prequals - they're solely a post effect

the lack of glow is really apparent in those closeups too

>a sith
>put his own life in danger
>allowed himself to be permanently disfigured
you are beyond retarded

Not the guy, but how the fuck can he go toe to toe with yoda but not mace?

>they're solely a post effect
You literally see the damage Windu's lightsaber does when hitting the roof

Would Mace have been able to beat Anakin 1v1?

no he just sucked. he made those stupid faces, wore that gay puffy robe, and got owned

That fucking face he makes at 0:14...

the prequels are fucking stupid that's why

>You literally see the cgi damage from the cgi lightsaber
You're an idiot
He meant the actors weren't lit with any lightsabers colored lights so it seems like they aren't real therefore just a post effect

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>Not the guy, but how the fuck can he go toe to toe with yoda but not mace?
He didn't go toe to toe with Yoda. He spend most of that fight running away. Yoda literally says 'if you're so powerful, why run?'

iirc anakin also says he wants to be as "powerful as windu, and wise as yoda."

i remember seeing some interview where they said the standin was gone unexpectedly or something, so they had to quickly replan it for a 60-something actor instead

i could be remembering it wrong though

They do in certain scenes of the prequels

KILLER JUMP ROPE

Mace knows a special technique that is a hard counter to Dark Side shit. The more Dark Side powers you use against him the stronger he gets. Its int he extended shit.

because Yoda and Sheev maxed INT and Mace and Anakin went STR

Also fights are a lot about match ups - Fighter A can beat Fighter B but Fighter B can beat Fighter C who can beat Fighter A. Like Rock Paper Scissors.

*glass breaks*

WHAT A MANEUVER!

Does anyone else wonder what the fuck happened to Palpatine's lightsaber? Did it fall on some guys head and create a gash on his head, heyyy, sort of like snoke.........

It'd be a very even fight I think. Very circumstantial.
I think we can agree that in a perfectly neutral environment Anakin would out-duel Obi-Wan but as we saw when you add in variables it can go either way, so to give a definitive answer is difficult.

Damn dat CGI sucks

Because of his enjoyment of combat, Mace used a lightsaber form that allowed him to tap into the dark side to fuel his aggression. He was the only one to master the form without falling to the dark side completely - he had something like one or two apprentices he tried to teach it to that succumbed and turned.

FUCK I SAID FUCKER DONT START SHIT

Yes. He knew the only way Anakin would actually harm Windu would be if he made it look like he was beating up a hopeless old man.

>*glass breaks*
>*stone cold starts playing*

I always thought this was fucking ridiculous.

thanks for poasting this OP and reminding us all once again how fucking cheesy and cheap the prequels looked. holy shit. they had hundreds of millions of dollars in budget, and instead of spending more bucks on better graphics/editing people, they wasted it on paying samuel nigger jackson millions to play a token role, with the played out "black people love the color purple" theme for his light saber, and the obvious black-guy-fighting-an-old-evil-white-man.

george lucas has always been pozzed. why else did he hire kathleen fucking kennedy to oversee his own company. disgusting cuck faggot. i was such a dumbass weakling for ever liking star wars. it's shit. yes, even the OT. classic capeshit good vs. evil with no depth, no deeper exploration of the meaning of life or what it means to be human, which could've been done since they are humans in a sea of fucking droids and weird aliens.

fucking stop with the star wars cuckposting.

This fight was pretty good until Yoda showed up.

THERE'S A FUCKIN SITH IN HERE

what face?

>only black man on the council
>only Jedi who can tap into the dark side
kek

Apologize tv

I still subscribe to the theory that his inner ugliness is really coming out after expending so much of his darkside powers, but he just blames it on the force lightning for the sake of explaining it away to the public.

Sam Jackson specifically requested the color purple for his light saber you nog.

I'VE SEEN FOOTAGE of Anakin killing younglings

plus it's not like luke turned into the elephant man after getting zapped a bunch

>*Padme's will to live breaks*

He also had some ability where he could see crucial points in time where the future is at a crossroads or something or other which I guess was fucking useless because it didn't let him foresee his ass getting tossed out a window

Gas gas gas!
I'm gonna step on the gas
Tonight I'll fly and be your lover
Yeah yeah yeah
I'll be so quick as a flash
And I'll be your hero

Just gonna throw this out there.

youtube.com/watch?v=3VB_vjVxcic

Sheev probably held it in suspension with the force considering he had it during Yoda's fight and he threw the fight on purpose. He probably called it back just as Anakin went off to kill Younglings.

all of those things is stuff fucked up people do in order to sow pity and manipulate people. so yes I expect that behavior from a sith

and if this explanation doesn't work he had two lightsabers anyway (he dual wields in a tv show)

I think it's one of the Visual Dictionaries it shows where Sheev hides his lightsabers around his chambers - he has more than one.

The prequels were better than this new garbage in theaters.

Mace was the greatest lightsaber duelist of his day. The final form of lightsaber dueling he invented and perfected (Form VII: Vaapad) was a dangerous form that granted extreme power and agility by tapping into one's rage, like a Sith, while still managing to not completely fall to the Dark Side.

He was not as wise or powerful in the Force as Yoda or Sheev but in a lightsaber match he had no peer.

Obi-Wan won the duel because he taunted a very emotionally-vulnerable Anakin, as well as his lightsaber dueling form (Form IV: Ataru) focused heavily on defense and parries while tiring the opponent out, directly countering Anakin's aggressive form that relied on raw power to overwhelm opponents.

they stand on their own at least. if you had seen only the OT and only the PT movies where young anakin, you could choose any one of them and get the gist of it. you wouldnt need the other two to understand. pick your favorite one its all you need

How can star wars and related content be so good sometimes and complete shit other times

Even in TLJ, some of the visuals and ideas are great, then just absolutely terrible

In this cartoon the whole idea for grievous is fantastic, and the movie version is terrible

*Glass remains intact*

...

>as well as his lightsaber dueling form (Form IV: Ataru) focused heavily on defense and parries while tiring the opponent out, directly countering Anakin's aggressive form that relied on raw power to overwhelm opponents.
is this expanded on in the EU or elsewhere? my autism is please by it

>when a blaster beats the highground

If only Anakin was packing.

>he taunted a very emotionally-vulnerable Anakin

This is what I mean though, these are variables that are hard to give value to when considering who would win in A vs B.
Your point about Obi-Wan's form is correct however, although I don't think he'd just be able to tire out Anakin and beat him that way (again, assuming neither had an advantage via taunting or what have you). Probably a stalemate, I'd say.

starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Lightsaber_combat/Legends

Kino. This is how Star Wars should be.

kek'd

>I'm now imagining MC Ride as Mace Windu

Mace Windu's fighting style counters Palpatines. Look it up

youtube.com/watch?v=dDhK0NqXrIY

HE
IS THE TRAITOR AAAAHHH

What do you think this thread is about, dumdum?

...

That's it. You could see the passion, the skill in these scenes. Nothing like the soulless "I'm acting" fights from TFW and TLJ.

shame dooku became such a bitch. what the fuck were they thinking with episode 1. should have started the trilogy with the clone war origins and the 2nd should have been mid clone war

Mace Windu was apparently the greatest fighter ever. Ol' Palpy might be better in the use of the force, but that doesn't really matter in this fight.

>Yoda can barely counter one Senate pod thrown at him with effort
>Palpatine throws dozens of them casually without giving a fuck
Nigga you dumb

why do all lightsaber fights seem weak? ive seen better shit in the clone war cartoons/anime. youd think hollywood could do an amazing job. same shit with force powers

This, and Ep II should have ended with Vader getting the suit and Ep III is the beginning of the Jedi Purge

Yeah but what the fuck happened to the one that he dropped out the window during the Windu Fight

You are retarded

>anakin grabs his hands and Dooku doesn't even attempt to fight back

This is something that I’ve always found really obvious with the Anakin Obi-wan duel. It’s a battle between Anakin’s rage and power and Obi-wan’s experience. It’s baked into the choreography. Obi-wan is always retreating while Anakin advances after him. Whenever there’s a change in terrain, it’s Obi-wan who makes the first move and has an easier time taking position. Anakin moves later, and has a harder time reaching the new terrain, and often fights from a disadvantageous position, making up the difference with raw power and talent. The conclusion of this is the High ground finish where Obi-wan selects the stronger position and punishes Anakin for trying to follow. Its honestly a really well done fight, dialogue aside.

>Ew he's being gay

That's exactly the kind of human response you expect to see from someone getting both hands cut off.

According to George he lost.
Star Wars isn't DBZ, "stronger" people lose to weaker ones all the time. Vader jobs to Obi-Wan alter.

>Hissing sabers
Fug that's cool.

Also the first sequence with Grievous in this show is fucking awesome.

>EU
lmao

Yeah, I think in a straight-up fight Anakin wins but as you said on Mustafar Obi-Wan wins via experience and more defensive mindset using the variable terrain around.
I think the point in that fight where it is clear Anakin is the more powerful fighter overall is when they get blown away by each others force push and Anakin has recovered and crossed the room to attack in the time it took for Obi-Wan just to get back to his feet.

Mace was the most powerful jedi & yoda was the wisest

>*freeze frame*
>*Baba O'rily starts to play*

>gets both of fucking hands chopped off by a laser sword
>face says "damn i dropped my glass of milk"
bravo george

unironically kino


According to Lucas he actually lost, Windu is just too black for the dark side, no seriously, the dark force reflects on him and makes him stronger.

From a certain point of view, he had the high ground.

kino is a purely ironic term so what are you saying lad?

ironically unironically ironically kino

man obi wan got a lot of kills for being that guy sidious looked at as a joke

I want the certain point of view meme to live forever

2d clone wars was made by genndy and action is his thing

PT memes will never die. And the nostalgia for them will only grow stronger with the more trash Disney pushes out with the Sequels.

I like the CW micro series but it has issues
>lightsabers are literally baseball bats
Fuck that.

It has issues but ironically the various cartoons the prequels spawned managed to salavge the lore of the prequels better than any of the movies did.

The Prequels at least had direction, world-building, a sense of scale, and fleshing out everything that makes the Originals special. The TCW CGI series is unironically vastly superior to anything in CW micro-series aside from Grievous and some cool Clone scenes and a few decent lightsaber duels.

It's like the face you'd make after touching a hot pan or something.
