Believe me, I love fast paced fighting, and the PT fights are patterned somewhat after real styles. I like much of it, though like I said, there is a lot of wasted energy on Obi-Wan's part, not to mention the cheesy fights from less athletic actors like McDiarmid and Lee (age of course). But it's not consistent with the OT in that the reasoning for the style employed there was that though these were energy blades, they were supposed to be hard to wield instead of massless. The fighting style for the OT is closer to broadsword fighting, and since that established the style and created a different sort of mood when watching the fights, I wish they stuck closer to it, or perhaps showed numerous fighting styles in the PT. I like what...crap, he's not on page 3...uh, Alenfae (sp?) has done thus far and look forward to seeing the slightly slower style.
I hear you Mr. Insane, though. My favorite part of Ep I is the Maul fight and wanted to see more of that as well. So perhaps the best solution would simply be to show multiple styles.
