That was actually really good! I was just thinking in the beginning that it's ridiculous how long lightsaber duels go when in reality it should be over in just a few moves. I'm glad I wasn't dissapointed.

One of the shocks that I learned was that Samurai duels where generally over within 3-6 moves. Experts typically know their craft really well and so a prolonged fight simply never happens unlike what hollywood likes to project

That was one of the greatest Star Wars scenes of all time. There is so much nuance in it and I hope others in Disney take notice. Kenobi switches his stance to that of his late master Qui Gon Jinn. As Maul tries the same move that killed his master Ben counters and catches him as he falls. Such a great and fitting closure of Maul's character arc.

Now that TLJ ruined any idea of the "chosen one" who knows where SW goes from here. Fucking faggots.
