And there's a video floating around of how silly the lighsaber choreography is because they aren't even going to hit eachother with most of the swings they do. The can be exciting, but on the whole I'm pretty bored by it these days.

The other side of it is that the characters and stories are so boring that the lightsaber duels lack any sort of emotional impact. The duels in the OT are interesting because they’re between characters with emotional conflict (Obi-Wan and Vader, Luke and Vader) and tie in to that conflict. The prequels were primarily written with “this lightsaber duel must look cool” so extra adrenaline gets pumped in but they forgot to make the characters have any interesting conflict.
Anyway I haven’t seen TFA yet so see ya
