Yeah it honestly really is

I feel like the further away from their release...the more people get nostalgic about them. Personally...i still think the first two were pretty bad and I'll only watch them for nostalgia.

Not to be "that guy" lol, but I always saw Hayden as the perfect Anakin; maybe I feel that way due to the nostalgia as another person stated, but I genuinely always loved his portrayal of the young pre-Vader. He played the angsty rebellious young adult so accurately, so much so that every action, down to the most miniscule facial expression, flawlessly depicted just how Anakin would've reacted in each given situation were this real life.

@@buzzyb13 AGREED!!!

It’s because people had a different idea of how Vader would’ve been as a young man. When you take like 20-30 years to make the next trilogy, people will already have a set mind on what they want and anything else will pretty much disappoint them

Man was Anakin in real life too

Pity about his acting thou lol

@@wolftone69 Nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnope. Hayden's acting was top-notch

@@MrZackavelli absolutely

@@wolftone69 he’s a fine actor. But if an actor doesn’t have strong, well-written dialogue, the actor can only do so much with it, you know. The scene about the sand with Padme comes to mind. That and many others.

I mean he basically invented cringe, we just forgot he was supposed to. Personally, I got over it early when seeing the bonus features of him behind the scenes for the video game. The genuine love he had for Star Wars and the skill he had with the saber moves, unimpeachable and exemplary.

@@KalonOrdona2 He used the lines he was given. there's only so much he can do. Regardless, he is THE iconic Anakin Skywalker

@@KalonOrdona2George Lucas said it best people thought they didn’t like Hayden but they really just didn’t like Anakin because Hayden played Anakin perfectly.

Agreed!

You're right. Some people are NEVER happy with anything.

I think he was the strongest of all the jedi but he could not overcome his greatest opponent, himself. That is, until he does ;)

Except Obi-Wan beat Anakin in every encounter (even the last if you think about it). Obi-Wan was the greatest Jedi by far as shown by all the powerful Sith he defeated (Anakin/Vader, Grievous, Darth Maul) and by remaining true to the Jedi ideals.

I really wish they'd kept more shots like the one here where Anakin just leans back away from a strike and casually blocks behind him while walking in the final cut. It's not just a cool action, but it shows Anakin beginning to fight the way Vader does in the Original Trilogy - not the wild aggression of Prequel Anakin, but steady, planted, and impenetrable.

@@babawonga3208 yeah, back when he was a Padawan lmao Anakin was above him at this point

@@XogoWasTakenyeah that would have been a lot cooler to watch. I always hated the whole lava chase sequence.

I would pay a lot for it lol

I will pay my tuition for that…

I would start giving out credit card numbers like they’re candy for that

Hell yeah!

Excellent analysis. Beautifully said.

Agreeeeeed

Also ties in better to how Obi-Wan ended up giving Luke the blue blade.

Totally agree. Before that fight a blue saber was only in the hands of those who stood for goodness. Seeing it turned on another saber in malice felt like a perversion.

Also, it teases you with a *teeny* glimmer of hope, kinda like “Oh, they’re not really trying to kill each other.. This is just a sparring match.. Any minute they’re gonna stop, shake hands, and be brothers again.. Any minute now.”

I totally agree with you. Some people don’t like it tho idk what they wanted this is perfect in my eyes

I saw it in the movies 3 times just to see this scene.

Disney?? Disney duels are completely FORGETTABLE, the same as their Star Wars movies.

Episode 3 absolutely blew me away. Saw it in the theatre 4 times I think.

@@cykeok3525 Episode 3 is about the only reason people still talk about the prequels imo.

Yes, for swinging his sword behind his back to parry a blow that Obi-Wan hadn't even started on yet. Yeehaw. Anybody can learn pre-defined moves, but a good actor or stunt double can make it look real. That entire fight is a catastrophe, and the worst is the "high ground ending". Just get real!

@@henrikg1388 Well, maybe many people can learn moves but not everyone can execute them while acting. Hayden DID make it look real both through his stunts/moves and his acting. High ground phrase is clunky and cringe sure, but the duel itself? No. But go ahead, be a contrarian edgelord... Also, you missed the point with the ending.

Most impressive

@@TChalla616 Most impressive, indeed *cackles

Yea. He did a pretty horrible job acting he did well in the fight

Yes, very impressive, but lets see Paul Allen's fight scenes.

And all the boomers said he sucked his work was perfect and George himself picked him, the Star Wars god himself, This is the way

even his attitude throughout ROTS, he was cocky and confident, which I think Hayden did an excellent job representing throughout the fight. Anakin wasn't panicky or racing, he was well timed with powerful strides, which I only really appreciated after re-watching the film.

was gonna to say the same! Love how he already is in character even when is just practicing the choreography of the fight.

Sorry but in my opinion everything about Anakin/Vader in the end makes little sense. Right before he cut off Mace's hand he was crying out about what the "jedi way" is and that they shouldnt kill Palpatine. But immediatly after cutting his hand off Anakin is heading off to go slaughter children and kill his best friend.Hayden turning soooooo evil in literally less than 24 hours and all because he cut off a hand was a pretty weak sell. I get that there were many events leading building up to it. But this moment shouldnt have been the climax of it all.

​@North Bridge I hear you. That is an astute obversation. That being said, there is a bold and broad line from "Sith and Jedi use same logic" to, let me go MURDER CHILDREN! Ya know. I've watched all the Clones Wars animated series multiple times and I get that there were many events leading up to Anakin's betrayal - but Anakin went full on evil video game boss....even when he said "from my perspective the Jedi are evil"....well that means that he believed the Sith are good and in the name of this new found good side, he, and I say again....MURDERED DOZENS (or Hundreds) of CHILDREN🤣

​@North Bridge Oh for sure! I agree. Terrible writing. Most of that trilogy was terrible writing. From Anakin saying "I wish I could wish away my feelings" to Anakin saying "I hate sand."...just absolute terrible writing....same with Padme's character. In episode 1 she serves as a mother figure to Anakin, which makes sense since she is so much older. In the begining of Attack of the clones Anakin creeps her out but then they have a talk about sand and she falls in love with him. Then Anakin murders tuskin raiders, women/children and Padme is all "Oh Annie! Its ok" I still love you even though everything you did is against the Jedi code/absolutely horrific. But her death was the most hilarious. How did she die "from a broken heart"....as poor as the new trilogy was, episodes 1-3 easily have the worst writing.

That would’ve been the cleanest weave in cinematic history. I feel robbed

I loved the part in the obi wan series where obi wans lightsaber slashes Vader's mask and he gets a look at what Anakin has become and Anakin's voice is mixed with the deep Vader voice.

@Spiralredd Nah, they just stole that exact scene from Rebels where it was Ahsoka fighting Vader. The scene in Rebels was EPIC. This scene only was enough as a reason to watch Rebels. But you have to watch the Clone Wars first of course, if you didn't. In my opinion the Clone Wars are better than the prequels and go second in my personal SW rating after the original trilogy.

@@galaxyrider9599 it doesn't matter because it's a lot more impactful for obi wan to experience it than Ashoka because obi wan is responsible for him being in the suit. Ashoka isn't

@@Spiralreddalso his connection to Obi Wan far outweighs Ahsoka. Don’t get me wrong I loved the scene in Rebels just because broken mask Vader is always cool and well Vader in general. I just don’t care for Ahsoka these days.

My thoughts exactly. I love it.

Cause it was trash...decades of hype wanting to see a young anakin at full power and he barely used the force. He took out dooku with ease yet obi wan who got yeeted by dooku somehow held him off. Same shit happened in the new series. And with darth maul. Obi wan has more plot armour than a dark trooper

@@garysanders8350 I agree they barly used the force like in star wars the force unleashed game did and it was good but it was not bad either the sword fight was good need a 2 or more flourishs and variety of powers

Too choreographed tbh. Especially when they’re spinning lightsabers like glow sticks

@@vampsith yeah just seemed like a dance. Like those people who dress up and pretend to be light saber experts

Seemed that they had better ideas that what they chose to actually film. I could have done without the lava surfing to be honest, and the end to the fight was just like they had no idea how to end it so they just had Anakin do something stupid.

It’s a shame they didn’t use that whole sequence. Would’ve been really cool

I never liked the idea of “hey, look, now you are a bad guy, so here, have red saber xdxd”

My thoughts exactly.

@@SpanishAvenger Same. I also never really liked the "Legends" idea of Sith blades being red because they used synthetic crystals. Taking the same crystal that a Jedi would use and then forcing it to turn red by making it *bleed* is definitely one of the better ideas to come out of Disney canon.

While I still love the way it has played out, a neat alternative concept could have been Anakin's lightsaber gradually turning red during the duel as if he were unintentionally bleeding it through his sheer hatred for Obi-Wan, but I feel like that could have broken the future concept of bleeding in some way.

Just No🤦‍♀️... the whole finding a jedi's crystal and "bleeding" it is to try hard and edgy for edgy sake imo. Made much more sense for sith to grow synthetic perfect crystals like was in legends already. A sith would not waste time seeking an imperfect crystal and would instead manufacture a perfect one like fake diamonds and instead spend the time training and increasing their power and knowledge. The old synthetic sith crystals Played well into the duality of jedi and sith too as jedi seek out natural crystals thru the force and sith create them and take the shortcuts to perfection. Natural vs. Synthetic was a much cooler idea in my opinion than a bloody crystal and played into the duality that permeates star wars. Sith are very utilitarian and don't care about their weapons color enough to waste time changing it... actually the opposite was the case and they cared so little about the color that they used synthetic crystals as they were perfect and always stable, not to mention much easier to get ahold of.(Just happened to be red because synthetic crystals are red) ... to me seems like they are trying to retroactively change lightsabers to be more "alive" and loyal like wands from Harry Potter when they were originally just a weapon. Breaking the will of a crystal is plain stupid if you ask me but to each their own, in my headcannon sith still use synthetic sabers.

Yeah it’s so similar to how Vader moves

@@StarWarsAnalyst yes hayden really captured vader's fighting prowless, even what i call "vader slashes" when hes killing the seperatists,and good look on how vader would use the things around him to throw at his opponents even anakin does this against ventress and a few bounty hunters in the clone wars cartoon

@@StarWarsAnalyst really puts someone inside the suit doesn’t it

Absolutely, like he would walk straight through him. Terminator like almost

💯 True....... the only thing that might top it would be an extended cut with that lava wave🤯

"Anakin VS: Obi-wan (Saber Edit)" It is a youtube video, Check it out... it eliminates alot of the clunky stuff hand to hand stuff and dramatic pauses, makes it a solid fight rather than cutting back and forth with yoda emperor fight, and edits Anakin to using Palpatines spare saber as was originally intended as Obi-Wan was originally supposed to find Anakin's Saber at the temple massacre... definitely worth a watch

The lava looks so bad. Worst cgi I’ve ever seen.

@@thezeek2745 obviously it was unfinished there🤦‍♀️

@@KatrinEgilsdottir That sounds terrible. The film is perfect the way it is; it doesn't need any youtube channels editing it.

Yea seeing it in the movies is one thing seeing the actual live practice footage is another.

Start giving him this credit by not comparing him to Keanu or anyone else. He gave this Hayden level of dedication which (the phrase) should be an indication of the great level of commitment.

im pretty sure in the final cut anakin looks at him with pleading eyes and reaches out to him, and obi wan i think nods. not sure, but you can check.

@@herratomik2146 Nods yes or shakes his head no?

Bro that should have been in the movie, that would be amazing

Anakin asking for help would not have been a good idea, it was fortunately cut off. It would have made Obi-Wan being the bad guy here, with him refusing to help someone begging for it.

@@headgehogmusic but it would still be within his character. Bro literally told Anakin's kid to murder him, because he did not believe there was an ounce of good left in him. This is the reason he would not save him. Obi-Wan always had a very black/white view of the galaxy and rarely, if ever, saw things as morally grey. It's only after witnessing Vader's death (through the Force) that he came to believe he was wrong about Anakin, as he would have never believed it unless he saw it.

When he said that in the video my mind was blown, such an awesome thing George did there

Try jumping over him, that's a good trick!

It was a lazy way to end a fight that they did not know how to end. Anakin has been sold as intelligent, prudent, the less reckless of the two and has precognition so he would know the jump would fail and would never have attempted it. Obiwan throughout the series wins purely due to plot armor, they do not even try to explain how he wins against Maul nor Grievous. What they should have used was that Obiwan is better trained in the force and simply uses something that Anakin was never taught to defeat him.

@@gideonlovecraft3134 This. The way Obiwan "defeated" Darth Maul was ludicrous and came from a vastly more compromised position than just not having "the high ground(tm)". If Lucas really did try drawing some sort of parallel between that silliness and the bitter, poignant, devastating clash between these two brothers is not just lazy and stupid, it's downright insulting. And all of this ignores the fact that in several movies, Jedi have force-jumped VASTLY higher than anything in this fight -- so why jump right into melee range? Why not leap 30' in the air and come down like a vengeful Sith Lord? Cuz they had no idea how to force the loss that everything else in their plot depended on. Classic blunder: write something that must happen and then develop characters that cannot fit into that event. Hayden was perfect in this sequence and portrayed someone that never would have lost in such a pathetic manner. Blah.

And it was great Hayden got the last laugh in Kenobi. That final scene with the voices overlapping drove home his acting style as Anakin like nothing else

Glad you enjoyed, I think Hayden is the perfect casting for Anakin

@@StarWarsAnalyst I agree, but I must admit I feel his line delivery could have definitely been better. Yes, a good chunk of it could be blamed on the (ma)clunky dialogue throughout, but still. I also wish he was a little less "deliberate" in Episode II, but that is absolutely the writing's fault and not his.

Hayden is underrated, im glad thatvhea getting the appreciation that he deserves from the work he's done since the early 2000s

The people how say that about Hayden. What mental problem they had? I was a kid back then but suficient mature to realized that Hayden was PERFECT as Anakin. The problem was the script for many.. What the heck?

Facts. And it’s so Vader-ish

@@StarWarsAnalystfun fact, I’m late, but it also emphasizes the arrogance that Anakin had in his ability’s, which was his ultimate downfall

Can’t wait for the day I can share this masterpiece with my son 😊

The only complaint I would have is that it's a little too obvious that it's choreographed.

@@masterwhopper414 makes sense it look choreographed because obi wan and anakin pretty much trained with each other constantly so knew each other's moves like it was second nature

@@masterwhopper414 "Anakin VS: Obi-wan (Saber Edit)" It is a youtube video, Check it out... it eliminates alot of the clunky stuff, makes it a solid fight rather than cutting back and forth with Yoda/Palpatine fight, and edits Anakin to using Palpatines spare saber as was originally intended as Obi-Wan was originally supposed to find Anakin's Saber at the temple massacre.

Exactly

Mando leak footage m.kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nq1nirx-1J-zf30.html

In the prequels he was saddled with some of the shittiest dialogue ever, plus he had to play the role of the angst ridden conflicted teen in love, which basically means he's a whiny little bitch, and we don't like seeing our Vader as a whiny little bitch. But that wasn't the actor's fault.

@@22steve5150 That was the thing, for most fans, Vader was primarily an icon, a simple, an inexorable force. Hayden had to be the human that became that, and naturally there would be fans who would disconnect from it because it isn't the Vader we know, but it never could be until the end of RotS. We could see flashes of who he would be, but he had to grow into those cybernetic legs

@@user-vl9bw1lw1u I agree, still a shame what happened to him

I love the duel on Mustafar. I hate how people gave Hayden crap for years.

Yeah they ruined all the yeara we could’ve had Hayden as part of Star Wars. Now he’s in his 40s and Disney continues to run the series into the ground.

@@TREVORVADER I think he's not too old, yet. I mean make-up for one and the job in Kenobi series was pretty convincing even if it was just this voice.

Right it’s so impressive

Very clean

Obi Wan also knew Anakin was the better duelist thats why he stayed on the defensive.

Also shows that Anakin didn't lose because of skill diff he was arrogant.

I mean, Obi-Wan overwhelmed and kicked Anakin a couple of seconds before this...

It's the Vader in him.

It also shows how the dark side affects the way he fights.

Forreal, even with just the smattering of grainy, fast-cut sequences shown I still thought they had a more "satisfying" feel to them compared to the impression the finished scene left. Imo that's also a proper mini-rebuttal tothe assertion of the "genius of the prequels" made here too... K. I mean I won't thrash the host's opinion here bc I get it: The prequels are retro af by now & therefore fascinating to a wide swath of younger folks & so I hope they get waaay more mileage out of them than the rest of us did back then, I know I wish I did!

Yeah I wasn’t too fond of the series, but I enjoyed the finale

It’s because they tried intriguing the scene through force and revenge

That one scene where Kenobi went a lil loco with his saber was pretty neat.

At least we got that fight we’re kenobi schooled anakin

Yes. It started me down my own path of swordsmanship that I still do today.

Also it only worked on Maul because he himself was arrogant (Best explanation we're gonna get for such a lapse in judgement.) Maul is much like Anakin in his craving for a false sense of security that ultimately killed him to Old Ben. Obi-Wan is an expert on capitalizing on arrogant opponents.

Easy fix would have been if Obi Wan jumped onto a pipe or something on the lava beach where he would still have high ground and advantage for attacks if anakin jumped to the lava beach. If he were on a pipe or something narrow where anakin had to land directly in front or behind him to continue the fight the flip directly over him would make much more sense

The way Anakin is motivated by sheer desperation to prove himself, but also, by ENVY towards Obi Wan, his former Master.

I was today years old when I made that connection. Puts the ill-fated jump in such a new light.

Yeah this is a first for me. I can't believe I didn't of it that way after all these years.

People are really easy to influence and "critics" of the time were very loud

star wars episode 3 was great

They should have done a short and shot the duel to be 10 times as long lol

It would be awesome to have just an hour of this duel as a ballet. With the music and choreography, it's basically a ballet already

...and the worst of all time. Watch Troy with Achilles' and Hector's duel for a duel that will last throughout the ages. In 20 years, people will laugh at this sorry excuse of a duel. They laughed at it when it came out and they will laugh at it again, as Holllywood's worst moments.

​@@henrikg1388keep coping, we haven't had a duel this well made since

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@TimothyGodWtf was that dude in here for. Hollywood? Is ROTS Hollywood at all? I don’t even get what he means.

It was such a waste. They had the components for a much better ending fight but chose something less interesting and ultimately less impactful.

Didn't help him against Dooku, who utterly humiliated Obi-Wan --- twice. In retrospect, I find Dooku's victories over Obi-Wan very satisfying, since Disney seems to have overpowered him to make him some sort of Jedi-God.

@@jetuber Obi-Wans best attribute was that he was the pinnacle of a hard hat blue collar Jedi whose greatest attribute was his wit. Disney destroyed that by somehow overpowering him to... Disney main character levels. If he were to win such a mismatch, Obi-Wan would do so through awareness and perfect timing not emotional power ups.

@@7632ios And that first battle will never make sense. Dooku can definitively beat Kenobi (he did it twice). And if pre- Mustafar Anakin can defeat Dooku, who is better than Kenobi, then he surely should have handily defeated Kenobi. I know that Kenobi tricked Anakin into trying a foolish stunt at the end, but it shouldn't have even gotten that far -- Anakin should have beaten him quite quickly right when they started dueling, since pre-M Anakin could defeat even Dooku, who was far better than Kenobi.

@@7632ios LOL. The novelizations. The movies are the movies, and it's what they show that counts, not whatever some novelization writer wants to make up. In fact, that's one of the few good things about the prequels -- they show that Sith CAN beat Jedi.

@@jetuber I'm thinking it's fire beats wood, which beats water, which beats fire.

he’s force sensitive, why wouldn’t he be able to do that?

Force powers allow the predict the future in combat, it's in the books and lore. Also note, some silly looking moves are designed to throw these predictions off.

@@RicoZaid_I think he meant actual Hayden was too fast so other actors had to slow down, he was just too good at the fighting choreography. Unless you are making a joke because Hayden portrays Anakin who is a very strong Jedi.

@@bravosix2960 ah ok :)

That is the partly the point: how easy it is to fall to the dark side.

It would have helped if some of the additional deleted scenes of Palpatine sowing Anakins distrust in the Jedi and even his wife were left in. Those scenes help paint a confusion situation where it could be plausible that the Jedi and rogue senators were plotting a coup. Then his decision to lead the Jedi Massacre would make more sense.

@@johnepants yeah I don't entirely understand why they cut some of the Anakin character building scenes out... They cut out some extremely good material that turned him from a creepy teenager with anger issues into a complex human being that you could clearly see was being manipulated and there were reasons why he was feeling the way he was and doing what he was...and that Padme was reciprocating the weird stuff so it wasn't actually as weird as it looked on screen

Killing the Jedi was part of "saving the bad guy" - as Palpatine says, "the Jedi are relentless. If they are not all destroyed, it will be civil war without end." (Not that you can blame them.) And it's not like Anakin/Vader ever consciously decides that killing his wife is part of his goals now, he just lashes out in anger after hearing her reject everything he did for her and (supposedly) betraying him to Obi-Wan. Hence him worrying about her safety when he wakes up in the suit. And, of course, the Dark Side takes every bit of anger he has and increases it tenfold.

I think what was needed was maybe a little hesitation as he was in the temple before the youngling slaughters, before ultimately doing it cos he has thrown his lot this way to save his wife and child. As it was, most of his hesitation (and temporary regret) was during the Mace fight. The general quick direction of the fall made sense to me given he had no way back after choosing Palps over the Jedi (one having the power he needed), but I wished to see his light side flicker briefly again before he comitted the ultimate sin to prove his new loyalty to Palpatine.

Pablo Hidalgo surely you can do better -Dooku

@@wilrsjasac hes too busy arguing with people on twitter to put resources into getting an extended cut made.

Imagine a rots vfx remastered with general Greivous fight scene extended cut and Obi Wan vs Anakin extended cut. 🥵🥵🥵🥵💀💀💀💀💀

I think that when watcher watches a duel between Obi Wan and Anakin with blue lightsabers he/she maybe could understand that with blue lightsaber in this duel Anakin looks like a Fallen Jedi. If Anakin had red lightsaber in the duel well that means he fully imbracing the Dark Side of the Force.

@@spider-boy5498 right. Imagine the look on Kenobis face when Anakin lit the saber hilt and it glowed a bright red. I can imagine a slump in his body and maybe uttering “oh Anakin, what did you do?”

Yes technically. But during Anakin’s Padawan years, Obi Wan probably received a lot of clout in the Jedi Temple for “killing” Maul.

Ironic. Obi-Wan gets a promotion for "killing" Maul, but when Anakin does precisely the same, he only gets "take a seat, young Skywalker".

@@masterexploder9668 lol right? While saving obiwan and the chancellor of the republic at the same time. I understand anakins feelings of being offended there

True. This would be awesome

Hear me out. A series on the hour by hour of the duration of the night of order 66, simply titled “Order 66”. Clone wars animation style, maybe dedicate some episodes to specific Jedi defeats/escapes, such as Quinlan Vos, Shaak Ti, Cere Junda, etc., an expansion on Vader eliminating the Separatist leaders, and of course, an expansion on the battle of the heroes in clone wars animation style. I’d love to hear Matt Lanter voice some anti Jedi lines

@@KwikAsAFlash that'd be really interesting once done right. It has to be really dark and maybe use flashbacks to show that particular Jedi of the episode's relationship with the clones and even family backgrounds and past. But no room for humour whatsoever. I'd also like to see normal civilians seeing order 66 on the news too. It can be treated like the 9/11 of the whole galaxy.

Oh yeah if that was the case, then it would have mirrored Luke vs Vader from return of the jedi

I think the whole point was they were brothers, the same, a mirror image of each other, evenly matched in power. That's why they had the same lightsaber.

Both Anakin’s and Obi-Wan’s sabers were blue in ANH, tho. But visually I agree with you.

imagine if it happen.

Yeah I agree

The Sith's red sabers came from a ritual where they they killed a Jedi in battle and took the cyber crystal from their lightsabers, poured their hatred until the crystal turned red. There's the comic story of how Vader created his lightsaber and the process took some time. There would have maybe been enough time for Vader to take one of the cyber crystals from the attack on the temple and perform the ritual, but then it would have been from a random Jedi. Makes me wonder how the other Sith (Maul, Dooku, Ventress, etc.) got theirs while still in hiding, but it does explain how Grevious doesn't have even one red lightsaber since he was not a forcewielder. They probably also went with the blue saber for the duel because it was the first duel with both Jedi sabers and they wanted to prioritize how Kenobi was fighting a friend and Jedi, not just another Sith.

@@stephenoffer609 Yep. I wonder why they retconed the sith crystals from synthetic to "bleed the crystal"? Like you said where did Maul and Dooku get theirs? Didin't Ventress get her's from Dooku or do I remember it wrong?

Aside from storytelling reasons (battle of the brothers etc.) I think blue lightsaber is better visible on that whole lava background. This could factor in too. Color of the crystal shouldn't matter as Obi-Wan could replace (old canon) or purify it (new canon).

All he had to do is hop off the stand he was on and walk up to Obi Wan and continue fighting a fight that Anakin would probably win being the much stronger fighter

Nah he could have just stayed on that platform, wait a little and jump to the ground, he wasn't in the rush since Obi was no way of going back to the platform , he clearly would not have pushed Anakin in the lava either , Anakin was just too cocky to wait and he wasn't sane either

I always felt like once their duel reaches the scene where Obi-Wan is higher on the ledge and Anakin is below on the little floating robot, he should have just left it at that. He didn't even need to accept defeat, just pretend like he did, then later try to ambush Kenobi again before he gets back on the ship he arrived in. But in his arrogance, he felt like he had to take out Obi-Wan right at that very moment and tries to attack when he is majorly disadvantaged.

Repent and follow Jesus my friend! Repenting doesn't mean confessing your sins to others, but to stop doing them altogether. Belief in Messiah alone is not enough to get you into heaven - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Contemplate how the Roman empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years to accomplish the religion of the Israelites C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate though because you can start a relationship with God and have proof. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life. - Revelation 3:20 Revelation has been unfolding since Jesus died. The Popes have claimed to be equal to God and set themselves in Jesus' place (antichrist(s)). Vatican City (Which is its own nation BTW) have risen up to fulfill the role of the false prophet Regarding the man of lawlessness or antichrist, 2 Thessalonians 2:4 says “Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” The restrainer that the Apostle Paul was referring to in 2 Thessalonians was the Western Roman Emperor, who held back the Popes from taking power. Once the last Western Roman Emperor was removed from power in 476 AD, the Pope was given civil and ecclesiastic authority over Rome; healing the deadly head wound of the beast in Revelation 13, as they took the Emperors title of Pontifex Maximus, leader of the church and state. “We may according to the fullness of our power, dispose of the law and dispense above the law. Those whom the Pope of Rome doth separate, it is not a man that separates them but God. For the Pope holdeth place on earth, not simply of a man but of the true God.” (Source: “Decretals of Gregory IX,” Book 1, chapter 3.) Pope Pius V blasphemed, “The Pope and God are the same, so he has all power in Heaven and earth.” (Source: Pope Pius V, quoted in Barclay, Cities Petrus Bertanous Chapter XXVII: 218.) Pope Leo XIII declared, “We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty.” (Source: Pope Leo XIII Encyclical Letter, June 20, 1894) The antichrist sea beast of Revelation points to the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, who controlled the Roman beast for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. Daniel 7:25 says “And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.” The Popes of Rome spoke against Elohim and proclaimed to be God. They reigned for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. during which they caused tens of millions of saints to be killed. The Pope’s title is Vicar of Christ, which in Latin is ‘Vicarius Filii Dei’, and equates numerically to the number 666

Honestly Anakin is much stronger than Obi in the force so he shouldn't have been stalemated like that with force push

I think that's the thing, Anakin never meets up to his potential. There was always that hope of him being the force's most powerful conduit, but it's dampened considerably by his actions and the actions of those around him.

Glad you enjoyed!
