The action scenes in Star Wars were always some of the most iconic in film history, namely the lightsaber duals. They're on another level of warfare to the space wars and the shootouts in the movies, and the outcome of them could be a huge game changer for either the good guys or the bad guys, as they fall in line under the ruling of the Jedis and Sith Lords. With this in mind, I think they naturally breed fantasy matchup appeal among fans for their track record, or even lack thereof. Which unseen lightsaber duels did you always wanna see?
My own examples down below:
Mace Windu vs Count Dooku- This could've been one of the biggest battles of the prequels. I mean, they both had a lot of experience. Mace Windu was Yoda's right hand man and he knew how to fight fire with fire. Count Dooku was Darth Sidious' right hand man, though he also came up under Yoda.
Darth Vader vs Chirrut Imwe- I thought Rogue One missed a big opportunity not making this matchup happen. Unfortunately Darth Vader's "big" moment was taking out a bunch of useless rebels, when Chirrut Imwe was the only one capable of at least confronting him at the time. He shouldn't have gone down in gunfire.
Obi-Wan Kenobi vs Darth Sidious- Obi-Wan took on every Sith Lord in the movies, except for Darth Sidious. They no doubt would've had a huge bone to pick with each other over Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader.
Darth Vader vs Darth Maul- Nobody captures the dark side on screen more than these two, outside of the emperor. Unfortunately Darth Maul was killed off when Darth Vader was just a little boy on the run from him in one scene of The Phantom Menace. If only he got the chance to atone for their little encounter.
General Grievous vs Darth Maul- Darth Maul would be the frontrunner, but General Grievous knows a thing or two about using a lightsaber. I think he would take Darth Maul by surprise with his four arms for a minute like he did to Obi-Wan in Revenge of the Sith.
Anakin Skywalker(Revenge of the Sith) vs Luke Skywalker(Return of the Jedi)- Father and son when they're at their most paralleled.
Anakin Skywalker vs Darth Sidious- Anakin was the "Chosen One" to beat Darth Sidious, and I have to wonder if he would've got the job done prior to joining him. He was getting really powerful, hence Darth Sidious converting him while was still young minded. I'm guessing Anakin would've beat him, if he wasn't taken advantage of during the fight.
Darth Vader vs Yoda- Yoda was the master of them all, though Darth Vader actually had a higher midichlorian count, and he definitely became the master of the force. Who knows how this matchup would've turned out.
Darth Maul vs Yoda- A lightsaber duel gone a million miles per hour.
Alright i'm done. You can post your own fantasty lightsaber duels now.
