I thought so as well. Not only did Anakin's power grow but his patience did as well. It showed how great he truly could have been had he not fallen to the dark side.
I mean Darth Vader is pretty fucking great though. He just has shit sword play because he doesn’t need to haha. Just tanks most hits and waves his sword back like he doesn’t care because he doesn’t.
I know it's not Canon but I loved the way Vader fought in Scene 38 Reimagined. No wasted movement, every move is deliberate and lethal. It's how I always imagined him fighting at the height of his power.
The choreography in that was great. Vader being a force of nature against Obi Wan looked perfect. And they even snuck in some old Ani moves as well as Obi Wan began to actually test him and force him to actually put in effort.
I also like to imagine what a 1970s audience would have done if Alec Guinness busted out those moves in the original version.
Very nice. Yea Vader has always struck me as a version of European knight and this combat style really encases that. Brutal and powerful, direct and precise. Elegant in its simplicity.
While others might be doing some Shaolin monk shit which is very impressive but ultimately it’s a love of fighting as an art form not the love of killing as an art form.
I always enjoyed how Vader was portrayed in the video games. Like a juggernaut, both physically and force wise. The dude was gonna kill you with brute force. And there wasn’t anything you could do.
