Star Wars Episode III Lightsaber Stunts

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...

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

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

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

PLEEAAASE god let Hayden feature in a flashback or something in the Kenobi series Edit: 😭it was amazing 😭

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.

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. Says everything about his humble personality. This is the best lightsaber duel in all of Star Wars. I wish George, Hayden and Ewan could give us more magical moments from a galaxy far far away.

2:28 "Kill him Anakin... KILL HIM" was the original "DEWITT"

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.

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

omg is the cameraman really driving around in a wheelchair? I am wheezing

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.

Who here misses the good ol' lightsaber duels

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.

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

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

General Grievous at 3:57: Sweating profusely

Why is Hayden Christensen’s voice so soothing?

This is still better than the newer star wars. So much fighting with lightsaber. Good plot and arch story
