| Jan 13, 2016 at 9:39 | comment | added | Luaan | Hah, yeah, the very first two things I noticed in the clips were (1) their legwork is great and (2) they are not actually aiming at each other. In some cases, they aren't even aiming at one another's swords :) Of course, since lightsaber "blades" can't be damaged and have very little momentum, aiming for the sword might be a viable tactic (once in a while). "Chopping" at Vader's head (actually, half a meter above Vader's head) is outright silly; how did they even film that scene? Notice how Vader looks about as tall as Luke in that shot - did they give Luke a stool or what? :D | |

| Nov 23, 2013 at 1:10 | comment | added | Beta | I wish I could find the article by a broadsword instructor about how to behave in a real sword fight (and therefore how to make stage fighting more convincing) with specific reference to light-saber combat. He gave a long list of rules, including "aim at your opponent's body, not his sword", and "act as if your life is really in danger". He devoted a whole paragraph to the spinning-around move. | |
