    To answer the question about the lightsaber, Lucas designed the lightsabers to actually have weight, because it's not just light. This is why he required everyone in the OT to wield lightsabers with 2 hands, because he wanted to show them being these heavy weapons, whereas the Jedi in the old republic being so skilled were able to wield them with efficiency and be able to wield them single handedly. With a saber staff, the lore is that only the most skilled force users were able to master such a blade and that when a saber staff wielder was involved, it would normally take 2 force users to be able to stand up to the individual like Maul.

    • @mcctaft
      @mcctaft Před 3 lety +199

      Exactly what I was going to say. It's (according to canon) not a "laser" but a controlled plasma beam. So there is some weight/resistance, due to the weight of the hilt and dealing with the rhythm of the plasma. (I always pictured it as being similar to a gyroscope: you can just flip it over, but the energy's going to work against you. Working with the blade's rhythm is easier.)

    • @TheElectricMayhem
      @TheElectricMayhem Před 3 lety +106

      Also, putting power in a swing is likely a tactic to control your opponents defense. When the sabers connect, Force is transferred knocking them back.
      If Maul is defending against a powerful swing from QuiGon, Obiwan has a chance to attack simultaneously.

    • @defnotnath4nie129
      @defnotnath4nie129 Před 3 lety +44

      scientifically that doesn't make much sense. my personal theory is that force users use the force to add weight to the blade. which is why only force users can use lightsabers effectively

A piece of art that involves drama, release and conflict and that it's not always portrayed by words alone. I love how he speaks so passionately about his job ^^

      There's a difference between a stuntman and a fight choreographer, although most choreographers inevitably end up doing stunts. This guy is a choreographer. He orchestrates the fight scenes while the stunt guys act it out. The choreographer must consider many factors, in addition to to fight itself such as the camera angles, safety, and skill of the actors and stuntmen. As you saw, even with a skilled actor, sometimes you need a stunt double to take the particularly nasty hits to preserve the actor for the rest of the movie. Fun stuff.

      I thought of this for several moments, because it almost seemed rude to imply no one could work as hard and be a good Darth Maul, but he IS right, because even if another talented, and dedicated actor comes into that role, for people who know, who REALLY know how to see and understand the unique nuances of an actor's motions, emotion, and in this case, fighting style, it's virtually impossible to truly mimic another actor's nuances to a T, and that much harder to please large fan-bases, much less the more hardcore in said groups for a particular actor/performer.
      That said, it's not IMPOSSIBLE to mimic someone that close, just insanely difficult, you almost have to be a clone of a person, or just truly skilled in that form of research and, for lack of a better word, absorption of another person's style, to be confused with the other actor, and I think MOST people in the world have had that one rare moment where they actually do a double take and think, "W-,Wait, that's not Him/Her?!", as they are truly flabbergasted by a performance.

    The Rob Roy fight is my all-time favorite. Specifically because of how it ends. My explanation for why Archibald didn’t let go of his rapier is simple: he was too surprised and shocked that Rob would just grab his blade like that. He was an arrogant snob.

    • @corbin_4738
      @corbin_4738 Před 2 lety +3

      I agree. I also think there were several other things incorrect with his analysis of that fight.
      The duel was to the death. If he let his rapier go, he would be unarmed.
      They were two entirely different fighting styles. Archibald's tactic was about speed and cutting. He could wear the opponent down. Hence why he cut Rob up then stood on the opposite side of the room - Rob was either gonna stand there and pass out or exhaust himself more to come at him. Gave Archie much more power. Also, that comment as to why he blocked that attack while moving well out of the way, it is 1) a guarantee he won't get hit (which is smart considering one hit from Rob probably would end the fight) and 2) always misdirect the blow. It's just sensible.
      Rob's fight style was literally the highlander of Scotland. Brute strength. Holding his sword not at en garde? He probably didn't even know what that was. But it does put him in the position for a power blow - his kind of fighting. Also why he wore himself out so quick. Archie wore him down, as said earlier.
      Assuming both fighters (specifically Rob Roy) knew everything about fighting is in and of itself a bad assumption. They even say in the movie that Archibald is easily the better fighter. But what did Rob have to lose by not fighting? He was gonna lose his land, his wife had been raped, he likely would've been executed or thrown in the stockades, his clan would have been driven from their land and probably not survived the winter - he had a lot on his shouldera going into the fight. Archie, well, didn't.
      Archibald (Tim Roth) was great in that movie, and that is possibly one of the best sword fights ever.

      @HiiroRocker101 Před 3 lety +5

      Yep. The swords are plasma, not light. Lightsaber is a misnomer but makes sense In-universe if you assume they're naming it based on its appearance. Plus "plasmasaber" doesn't sound as cool.
      Lightsabers contain their plasma blades using a magnetic field, which causes them to have unintuitive momentum and magnetic balance. That's why usually only Jedi used them, The Force helped them predict and control the magnetic forces.
      This explanation was originally posed in Expanded Universe/Legends continuity, but was canonized in Star Wars Rebels when Kanan Jarrus is giving Ezra Bridger his first lightsaber lesson. He teaches him about the length adjustor, as well.

    Correction guys: Lightsabers (despite the name) are actually beams of focussed energy (plasma) which loop back into the hilt.
    The effect of weight is caused by the resonance of the blade, making it very difficult to fight with. Think of those spinning ball toys that you spin up in your hand for as long as you can.
    Imagine one of those in the hilt at full RPM, that gives you an idea.

    • @hulktopf5031

      A double bladed sword is inpractical because it has to slice through which needs force. A lightsabre needs no force for slicing it goes through matter like a knife trough butter. So wielding something which can be swung around as fast as you spin means there is less impractically because all you need to do is is getting one lightsabre side between you and the opponent and one side of that weapon can be quickly positioned.

    Even though lightsaber blades are weightless, the electromagnetic forces do cause them to interact with each other in a somewhat unique way. So, momentum makes a difference if you're expecting it to hit something that cannot be cut by a lightsaber.
    I would argue that the double-bladed lightsaber is better suited for combat against non-lightsaber users. Still, having that second blade can be useful in lightsaber duels where your opponent(s) have more than one lightsaber in total. With that said, it'd probably be better just to use two lightsabers.

    Things to consider: Darth Maul is using a form called Niman, which uses staves and involves a lot of turning, flipping, ect. So on top of fulfilling actual sword play, the Star wars folks have to incorporate the lore type fighting style - and all fighters are utilizing the Force in addition to the sword play - especially the 6th/Niman form. TL;DR Star Wars lore is also included into the real style of fighting.
