I think the lightsaber duels peaked with Attack of the Clones. This, for me, was the most disappointing part of the movie, They have this interesting visual character in Grievous and hes made to look like a chump by Obi-Wan. Who the hell were the jedi he supposedly killed, were they restrained at the time? I would have loved to have seen Grievous actually taking on multiple Jedi.Likewise the Palpatine vs. Jedi (inc. Windu) was pretty much pants too. Again, okay we see Palpatine dispatch three jedi chumps with ease, but again it had nothing new.The Yoda vs. Palpatine Duel Because Stuntmen Gotta Eat! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />Haven't read the novelisation yet. Of course, as would my movie. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
