That's not bad. I guess I could live with that. But I have to save I'm very partial to my idea of Anakin using 2 sabers when he tries to jump over Obi-Wan, with Obi Wan then retrieving the blue one. What did you think of that idea? Do you think it's technically possible?
Well Erik, I think it would be possible without too much effort. I also think it's a great idea. With that said. The only reason I'm shying away from it is that it would happen very very quick in my version of the cut, as I taken all talking out of that scene untill after Anakin get sliced.
This is my version of the final duel that I've had on youtube for awhile now. The section we're taking about happens right at 4:25 into the clip.

As you can see the amount of time that we see Anakin before he leaps is about 3 seconds. It's also a very bad angle to show him lighting up his blue saber. I'll review any footage that I've taken out of the part. But I'm pretty much sure any shots of Anakin at that point would have him speaking. Which I dont want.
Also if I was to go this route and make it look good, then I would expect a wave of people chiming in with. "If Anakin had 2 sabers on him, why didnt he use them both earlier in the fight?"
I'll still take a stab at this , and I'll post the results when I do.
**update** ok just looked over the footage taken out, there's a good shot in which to light up a second saber, but this shot also only lasts for about 3 seconds. I'll try it with this shot and see what it looks like. I might not get to it tonight tho
