Brian Frith

Done. Excellent idea, looking forward to the results and discussion

Jason zurheide

By the way, Luke Vs Vader on Death Star 2 isn’t on here

Jeffrey Van Dyke

Fun. Tried really hard to restrain Sequel Trilogy bias!

John Zancanaro

Can't wait to hear the results of this group.

Jeremiah Bietka

Fun survey. Like the way the battles were broken up into story/visual/choreo.

zillobeast

Done. I feel some of our answers were swayed by our love of certain films / trilogy’s

Bawstin Dan

I didn't see the luke v vader in the death star scene in ep. Vl

Diana Orr

Done, great idea Jimmy and Jason.

Joseph Tavano

I took the sur ey, but I was hoping for a more conclusive list of saber battles. Shouldn't forget the series.

zillobeast

When maul v ahsoka from series 7 clone wars is added they can close the survey! We have a winner!

Jay Schmidt

Luke Vs Vader on DS2 ROTJ. Scores 3s in all categories.

Javier Solorzano

Good experience as a brief review. My survey didn't have any Episode VI queries?

Rebel Force Radio

I've notified the Space Buccaneer about the missing ROTJ duel. Perhaps he will add it soon.

Blake Weaver

Filled it out. Dude this was awesome! Can’t wait to hear the conversation around this.

Javier Solorzano

How about a "Joe Dallas-style" survey? Which Lightsaber Duals don't matter anymore; or as much? Lol...

Space Buccaneers

Sorry RFR community I missed one of the most important duels Episode VI, how I have no idea. Sorry... I did update the survey no need to go back I can adjust for it.

Joe Dallas

Lol - that’s a great idea… the low 1 point ratings will give us that!

Javier Solorzano

SW Episode VI... Luke verses Darth Vader on Death Star II? Story.....5, Visual.....4, Choregraphy.....3

Bjorn

My favourite duel as a kid was Luke vs Vader in Jedi but through this criteria I think Obi/Quigon vs Maul in Ep 1 and Luke vs Vader in Empire are the absolute pinnacle

Tyler Page

Yo I did this on my phone and didn’t know it was 1-5 and that you could scroll. Only voted 1-3, sorry to skew any stats.

Jeremy Grimes

I’m from the original trilogy generation and I grew up loving those lightsaber duels. Say what you will about The Phantom Menace but that lightsaber duel at the end of the film is hard to beat in my opinion.

Eric from Phoenix

Done. Sorry but the Luke versus Darth Vader duel in Empire is still the best for all of the categories listed, at least in my opinion :)

Dylan McGee

Good luck with your survey! Look forward to hearing the results. FYI, I rated "visual effects" based on the technical capabilities of the time, not by contemporary standards. Maybe others did as well.

Antonio from NJ

Man that was a lot of fun!!! I have four get perfect scores.... Qui/Obi v Maul Obi v Darth Ani Luke v Vader: esb Luke v Vader: rotj

MrPickles

IMHO, EPI Qui/Obi v Maul still the GOAT for choreography (especially w/Duel of the Fates playin'). Thank-you, Nick Gallard!

Space Buccaneers

Hey everyone thanks for participating in the survey. I am going to end here so I can sift through the data and get some answers on which is the greatest lightsaber duel. Those of you missed the chance to fill it out sorry about that perhaps on the next one. MTFBWY

Dylan McGee

Me too! But I was still two when I saw Star Wars in cinemas during a rerelease in summer of 1979, so I don't remember it that well. More than the effects, I remeber some theater staff guy dressed up as Darth Vader!
