If you’re a Star Wars fan, you probably either love or hate the elaborate lightsaber fights of the post-original trilogy. If you’re a member of the latter camp, Redditor tporter12609’s theory may convince you to join the light side of the opinion.
“One of the smaller criticisms I see directed towards Star Wars, especially the prequels, is that the fight scenes are ‘over-choreographed’ with lots of flips, spins, and flourishes thrown in,” the theory begins. “If you show these clips to real life master fencers, they’ll say things like ‘you would never do a move like this, if you did, you would die.” Fencing between normal humans is nothing like lightsaber fighting between Force-sensitive beings, the theory concludes, because “instead of being able to quickly react to the things they are seeing, they are reacting to things that haven’t yet happened.”
