Earlier this week, we asked you to complete a survey about lightsaber duels from all the Star Wars films. This survey was created by RFR V.I.P. Jon aka Space Buccaneers, who then joined me for RFR Q&A #147 after compiling the data. The duels were then ranked 1 to 20 based on the survey results. 

However, we didn't have time on the almost 3 hour podcast to provide each and every survey result so all the data is being presented here. Check it out and thanks for contributing!

That 3 hour q&a was fantastic! I kinda want more like this. Maybe get more survey's on different topics like best star ships or star wars books...or Aliens or whatever! Really was awesome to hear and now see the results!

Sanjay

Agreed. Also to examine the duels from different perspectives (choreography, etc.) was cool. I wonder where duels from the animated series would fit into this list?

Dylan McGee

This is already one of the classic episodes of Q&A! Lots of interesting analyses here, and plenty of room for continued debate. One major issue whenever parsing survey data--what was the sample size? I don't remember this being mentioned during the episode. The validity of the data relies heavily on the sample size. I suspect that some of the aberrations in the rankings would disappear if more people responded. Also--not to get all nerdy here, but--this survey would have been even better if Jon included a prompt for respondents to include their age. It would have cool to have breakdown of rankings by demographic (OT generation, dark Times generation, PT generation, and Blake's generation). Again, not trying to be critical here, just trying to share some suggestions that might be useful if Jon ever decides to do more surveys in the future. Which he absolutely should! This was awesome, and probably one of the best Q&A episodes ever!

Joe

This one was fun! Thank you Jon and Jimmy and everyone who contributed. I like how Jon distilled Star Wars down to lightsaber duels. I have a similar feeling when I think of Star Wars. There are many key components of Star Wars that can be explored in the same way. Great insights and commentary from you both.

I really enjoyed this episode. Thank you Jon for doing all the legwork and thanks Jimmy Mac for another great Q&A!
