Mark Valley vs. Drew Mazanec

[Arkapok81]

It wasn't bad, but it was really obvious that you guys were attacking each others sabers and not each other

[Gyrater05]

the Ryan vs dorkman one was better. nice job nonetheless.

[maxcretan]

can you say RVD2 opening copy?

[CertifiedSexacologis]

these lightsabers spark more when they get hit than the power rangers...

[psycoticdeafkitty]

i just wanna see one lightsaber fight where if one guy gets dissarmed, he doesn't easily whoop the other guy's ass. why use a lightsaber if it's so easy to regain the advantage after you've been dissarmed? why?

[TheDarkSide61862]

Looking at some of the other comments, I will check out some other videos. But, till then, you guys did a fine job. Sparks make it a bit more intense. My favorite 'style' (I don't know what it's name is) is where the fighter holds the sabre over his head and behind him before an explosion of offensive powerfull strikes. Count Duku and Anakin use it and Vador and Luke use it a bit. I think it is the pefered 'style' of Anakin/Vador. Anyway, good job

[davkpl]

Did you find the third guy on movie ?? No ? Watch again !

If u still cant find him, stop on 0:37 and check again :)

[kalbahamut]

Not as good as the Ryan Weiber ones, but not bad. Certainly better than I could do. But, I think something is wrong with your lightsabers. They look weird and make strange noises and are sparking like hell, maybe you ought to get that checked out if the warranty is still any good.

[MillenniumGuy2001]

LOL Spark Wars

[CaiusTSR]

Dat reverse grip. To strong.

[FighterGuDude3214]

Good other than uh, well, Lightsabers don't spark insanely when they contact eachother.

[NewSevenDays]

too long

[PraetorDrew]

@NewSevenDays That's what she said.

[Edge123455]

@PraetorDrew

You cannot get sparks when two sabers clash because they're energy, not matter.

[nfletch57]

That was pretty cool

[t1nk4n]

i think theres a bit too much spark? but nice video overall

[soicboy200]

This was the second best Fan-Made Duel I've ever seen...

[CupofJoeProduction]

check out my video star wars episode x

[Lostprophetzzz]

@CupofJoeProduction marked as spam for advertising your own SHIT video on much better ones.

and the name episode x is already taken btw.

by a GOOD video.

[jabbernaut52733]

great vid but you used the same sounds over and over

[fan2dofus]

Amazing

[SmNuramon]

sau gay alda wasn das fürn scheiß

[InvincibleNumanist]

great fight but coulda done with more lightsaber sound effects,

[srtenebroso]

Nice lightsabers!

[TheMatstan]

Wrong light saber effects bro!

[nightbirdskill]

was i the only one rooting for the bad guy?

[halfbloodwolf93]

That was cool, pretty well choreographed, though the reverse grip might be "Cool But Impractical". Unless there is some advantage to it that I don't know. Still, well done.

[Lordgale119]

@halfbloodwolf93 reverse hold allows for harder and faster strikes in succession from the same angle, and also uses less of the arm and prevents over-extension and thus the opening of the guard. It also looks really, really cool.

[KinSmallProductions]

effort, cant think how much of a pain that was to rotoscope

[Koboch]

form I Shii-Cho wild and raw, was more for disarming than injuring. form II makashi was centered around 1 on 1 and using footwork and precise attacks that of fencing. form III soresu was highly defensive, in use against blaster bolts and to exhaust your opponent or force them to make a mistake. form IV ataru is very acrobatic to use you need an exstensive knowledge in the force to use. form V also what Vader used is for strong relentless attacks. form VI niman pfft niman sucks. out of characters

[diablo10118]

Pardon my french but..that was kickass... AWESOME. Loved the sparks.

[Warlord728]

I loved how he drug the lightsaber across the ground but there were no scorch marks. Also, I think you went a little overkill with the sparks.

[synRdave]

i thought it was cool you held youe lightsaber down ala zatoichi it was really neat to watch

[swicker007]

awesome job... constructive criticism would be better wardrobes... not expecting jedi clothing, but anything other than a tshirt would have created a better 'world' for me... suits, or whatever... great effects, great staging, great set... very cool all around

[aindao]

Is the lightsaber effect from LSmaker???

[TheGothicFather]

Better then some of the actual movie battles.

[XfrostgiantX]

I really liked the choreography, but felt the sound effects were generic. How come you didn't use the actual Lucas sounds? Apologies if I missed a comment about it.

[ninthreaver]

this is such a cool lightsaber fight, love the close-up of the saber and seeing the energy running down, awesome effects and choreography

[judithleexD]

Those weren't the sound effects i expected to hear, maybe you shouldnt have sparks flying off every time and i think the lightsabers should look a lil more solid (if you get what i mean) but OMG that was amazing!!!! Not only did you have great choreography the setting was awsome the lighsabers were fantastic and the camera footage was great. Well done. Its something i can only dream of doing :) xx

[Strava124]

@judithleexD I dunno... I know it isn't original but I liked this new version of the lightsabers... It sounds kinda cool...

[judithleexD]

@Strava124 no no no... i like the sound effects but i was just suprised is all. amazing job <3

[Ediranii]

mah nothing new :) same old scenario bad guy dominates the whole time good guy wins with no particular reason xD

[y0uwi11n3v3rg3tm3]

@Ediranii you can go to hell

[Ediranii]

@y0uwi11n3v3rg3tm3 10q dude I hope I'll meet you there :)

[artgonewrong]

too many sparks, I think.

[y0uwi11n3v3rg3tm3]

@artgonewrong not enough sparks

[jedichick77]

Very impressive, although sparks flying after every strike is unorthodox it really gave the vid your own feel to it. The back ground was simple yet fantastic. The attacks and chorography was aggresive and looked dangerous. (A thing many cannot accomplish.) Well done. You should be proud.

[mady1186]

superbbbbbbbbbbb



[spiderskater3]

bootleg lightsabers "space swords" LMAO

[DJFAMDaniel]

@spiderskater3 LOL!



[ThePeopleneedhelp]

0:03 DUD WHAT KINDA SHOES ARE THOSE

[ObiWanMcGuane]

I like this one though, it has that dark, gritty feel to it, gives a modern underground kinda look. Kinda picture lightsaber battles to be like this in modern times. Haha modern day Sith and Jedi are rival gangs :P TV Show no? ha so ruin the entire Star Wars saga if it was done!

[KoRnDuDe19886]

the effects used sure are a bit different than the effects used in the actual Star Wars movies, but this still looks awesome :D

[jewelfewel]

i like ryan vs dorkman's effects better

[KadSkirata]

What r u guys fighting with? Hot pieces of iron or lightsabers? sparks on collision of sabers is kinda dumb

[jacobosn]

sony vegas?!

[Realmasterorder]

Very nice ghoreography and in overall, but way too many sparks flying around u got to trade those in for some flash effect when the sabers collide

[GodsAvengR]

Nice vid. guys. I see your using your own creative style, that's what it's all about anyhow other wise your copying someone else's work basically. Keep it up do what you like with your work and don't listen to those wieners on here. Everybody has the right to their own vision. If you ask Mr Lucas he'd tell you the same. Not to mention had he listened to some of those people when he created the Star wars films the there probably wouldn't be none. That's for those who know his history of course.

[irishbernier1993]

It's painfully obvious that they are pulling just about every swing they take, and the sound effects could be... much better. The visual quality leaves something to be desired as well; I'd stick with the Ryan vs. series if you want decent lightsaber duels

[drag0nhardstyle]

too much sparks, but nice anyway :D

[zeroofcaleb]

yea this is uber gay

[Malathrom]

240p? damn we are in 1970!

[Lordgale119]

@DrmrGuy1979 Yes, I'm a nerd, but at least I'm somewhat accurate, right?

[XxToRNadiCacTiViTYxX]

Great job with the sparks, but they feel just a little gratuitous. Lessen them up a bit and his looks great

[bcurry9579]

Awesome job!

[rezurrxtion]

How did you get that wavy effect? And how did you get the blades themselves darker without the prop blade showing?

[animeisland420]

bang out a little extra for the lightsaber effects because that's where it counts

[turnerwitt]

gimps



[jblucio3177]

weak



[DarthNihilus95]

Lightsabers clash effect is strange.

[Algernonab]

Notice that after the release of "The Force Unleashed" that it's become a fad for people to hold their lightsabers backwards.

[PraetorDrew]

@Algernonab This was shot in 2007.

[Algernonab]

@PraetorDrew Ah.

[McCMindy]

@PraetorDrew 2008.

[Dragonbooster07]

@PraetorDrew the orange saber guy fights like ahsoka tona skywalkers pawdawn

[Lordgale119]

@Algernonab Reverse hold is actually an alternate form of an existing lightsaber combat form called Shien. It's all there on wookieepedia. Drew also seems to be using a form of Juyo or Vapaad, which relies heavily on ferocious attacks and physical contact, mainly kicks. I must sound like a total nerd right now, but really, I looked it up as I typed. You can do the same, if only you used the power of GOOGLE!

[PraetorDrew]

@Lordgale119 I would comment, but someone who spends hundreds of hours and a full year on the visual effects of one lightsaber video really has no right to call someone else a total nerd.

[javierflame]

@Lordgale119 sigh... this shien you speak of is a sword style as in samurai? the name is even Japaneses man come on

[foreverknight13]

@Lordgale119 you are well knowledged in lightsaber combat. what would a fencing style be called in addition to Shien?

[Lordgale119]

@foreverknight13 I would say Shii-cho and Makashi. Shii-cho is based on disabling the opponent's weapon, and is practiced in a similar fashion to two-handed fencing. It utilizes similar movements and targets similar zones, while Makashi is more elegant and refined.

[zangetsugaya]

@Lordgale119 i believe that variation of the shien form was called sith shien as it was favoured mostley by sith, darth revans favoured form

[Lordgale119]

@zangetsugaya Uh, no.

Sith Shien doesn't exist as far as I know. There are no concrete sith forms, since anyone is capable of using any lightsaber form. The Jedi merely tend to stick to tradition, while the Sith modify their styles more often.

[Torterra625]

@Lordgale119 Which is why Vapaad cuts close to Sith battle style

[Lordgale119]

@Torterra625 There is no "sith battle style", only variations favored by the sith. Vapaad is the Jedi form of Juuyo, which is the most common form for Sith to use, but is not exclusively used by Sith.

[DatDereItalianGuy]

@Lordgale119 Google is strong with you.

[wacfilms]

@Algernonab the idea of holding lightsabers backwards has been around long before the release of Force Unleashed, it was never in the movies, but I remember some even held lightsabers that way in the revenge of the sith video game.

[EmoVincentValentine]

@Algernonab i held my light saber backwards before that game came out. there were also other star wars games where the jedi held there light sabers backwards.

[xXLegacy]

@Algernonab yeah i'm getting sick of people holding a sword like a knife...

[NYGamerX6]

@Algernonab FAIL

[jjhaznofear121]

shit



[lsdgod]

too much trapcode particular.

[21dicembre2012lafine]

lightsabers do not make sparks in a clash

[Ryoshihanaki]

sound lightsaber bad >.>

[lightstudiosLSA]

that must hurt the guy with the orange one is touching his blade.

[TKA001]

The effects are weird and unusual compared to most vids of this sort, but it's still wicked.

[Skiphanatic93]

The acting was kinda bad, mark wasn't into it enough and drew was too into it. The editing was AMAZING though! maybe add more sound effects for stuff that wasn't light sabers, like better grunts when force pushed or like a skull crack when he's head butted. it was really really well done!

[Pablitchus]

La coreografía está muy buena al igual que el efecto de los sable de luz el cual está muy bien logrado; sin embargo hay demasiadas chispas, es que no tiene sentido que salgan chispas de los sables de luz ya que éstos, están hechos de láser no de metal ¬¬' la música es regular nada más y el sonido del choque de los sables es realmente muy malo. Igual bien por ustedes.

[NeoTodesklingel]

Not bad and a bit funny.

"Much to learn you still have, tough - Young Warrior's. " : P

[TAPriceCTR]

personally I like the shimmer on your swords but it makes is more of a plasma blade concept than a light saber... as does the matter flying off from impacts.

[ace206]

Drew Mazanek....a buff Artosis

[megaloltown]

looks like they wer fightin with sparklers xD

[paolosding]

Sparks never fly out when saber on saber? Kind of cool tho. :X

[willianbass21]

o como qui fas pra baixar esse tipo de programa ?

[IDNH]

I didn't like the sound of the lightsabers. Other than that it was awesome. Love the look of the lightsabers as well, the way it wobbles with the heat

[MarlowWesh]

FAKEN FAIL! Worst animation/sound/acting/fightin­g well just about anything srlsy gtfo :)

[beastdude]

shame the blue saber didn't give off blue sparks.

[EndeavourLaunch]

Starkiller grip!

[remirez2k3]

well done guys only issue i see is your combat speeds a real lightsaber fight would have been alot faster

[Aspartan3]

this is gay

[davidmartin192]

@Eldermooth no crap its fake, lightsabers are fiction

[RequiumFrost]

@Eldermooth NO ITS REAL

[ToNy90esp]

con las chipas parecen mas reales las sables lasers xD

[Coolman71710011]

not bad, seen better though. good work = )

[Mettwurst1stGott]

moves are quite good but the sound is not good at all

[hawkfan2300]

i like the sparks!

[xxCarboneAntonioxx]

cooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooooooooooooooool

[PierreRMB]

I wish I had a lightsaber and could use the force. I would jump off the empire state building, beat up some bad guys, convince some people to put me at the top of a cult, create a militia under my commend, brainwash every euroskeptic into becoming eurolovebirds. Unfortunatly, I dont have the force. "Up Your, Delors" euroskeptics, we want Europa!

[Natekid11]

the lightsabers don't look real

[purpledude2]

@Natekid11 as aposed to what real one?

[legostarwarsjedi2]

@Natekid11 YES THEY DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­O!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[legostarwarsjedi2]

cool sparks guys keep it up and may the forus

[kinmanyuen]

sound effects are wrong... no sense of direction

[codabowsrock]

That sparks were a cool effect. BTW it wasn't a bad video it was pretty cool actually RvD is in a whole different league okay? It's the best of the best. But this was really good. I believe they were actually trained in the martial arts...just saying that kick and the form and how they fought suggest this.

[ozzyfanatic51]

Awh thats adorable, you kept that piece of turd I gave you, and decided to put it on Youtube...

[ZetsubouMFZB]

Mantle of the Force vs Heart of the Guardian?

[Woody111191]

this is quite a good video. the actual look of the saber is interesting, kind of cool and different, and the sparks were really good but i think there was alittle to much sparking or sparls... but thats a minor thing great job over all ;P

[benzesty]

you change stances while fighting, surely you should specialise in one stance to gain advantage...

[KCross33]

too frequent of sparks when the lightsabers hits..... thats all i have to say.....

[ErnestGetz]

@Eldermooth i dont understand your comment 

[falcont2t]

@Eldermooth oh really? damn, i thought those lightsabers were real

[lavisa13]

Great job.

Small critique: Some of the attacks from the sith looks expected (As in, rehearsed to the point of it becoming part of muscle memory)

However, the video itself was fantastic. Well done. 

[IAmTheClayman]

awesome job! one of the few fights i've watched that actually has saber sparking and shows an effect on the environment. Great vfx work

[DesignZeplin]

Think I actually like this lightsaber effect better than the official one o0

[illukemac666]

wow ... this was very awesome .. i loved it .. im totally sub your channel .. keep doing videos

[joshuak47]

the sabers were pretty cool closeup. Strange sounds, though. Dunno if they will catch on.

[rixelchinito]

fake and gay! haha

[PraetorDrew]

@rixelchinito I promise that our parody of Queer Eye was infinitely gayer

[eddieischill123]

@rixelchinito What do you mean fake? Starwars lightsabers are also fake.

[billkinz1998]

@rixelchinito

COUTION DONT FEED TROLL:

this will cost you $500 :0

[xDopeyEmox]

@rixelchinito good description of yourself

[apersonalitytoofar]

@rixelchinito Fake?! Really?! You mean Lightsabers aren't real? Damn, you be smart.

[364dragonrider]

@rixelchinito like you aren't?

[bpbduncan]

@rixelchinito How would it be real?

[TheScumper]

The coolest sabers I've seen so far- better than Ryan and Dorkman's ones.

[basilolo]

Hey hey! Tell Mark to be more agressive! He's too stiff!

[Surakemastura]

I love how Mark Valley smirks everytime he Force Pulls his lightsaber xD his laid back attitude fits awesomely with the Jedi role lol

[jdmajdma1]

Great video!!!

[BrickMovieProduction]

@Eldermooth You are the one who is fake. jUST because it is made in a diffrent way doesn´t mean it´s fake..

[Spearow0906]

i bet 50$ no one can beat me in a "No Line" sword fight

[Skomega77]

Great effects, but the swordsmanship could be better no offense. try throwing in some martial arts tricks:)

[musikk83]

action great, sound bullsh

[MythzRivendare]

ALL REAL

NO FAKE

[klama11]

Guys sparks from 2 different lightsabers should flash in different colors. Am i right?

I saw only orange sparks emanted from both sabers.

[domepiece1234567]

Love the particle concept

[Polaris543]

Very nice but not enough sfx diversity and WAY to much sparks

[MrVidManiacMilo]

some sound from wow lol

[akakiller95]

nice effects ;)

[MichaelTingMovies]

Quite good. Acting: excellent; choreography: good; special effects: very good - too many sparks; background music: fair; sound effects: poor

[symbiote]

Very good film. Like true to Jedi combat, each Knight has different styles of swordplay so I wont compare this to RvD. It' cool in it own right. Good fight choreo. I would have like to hear more saber sounds (what I love about saber fights). Over all I give this a 9.9

8)

[TGamersFB]

@Eldermooth you dont FUCKING SAY!

[kramerstriker1]

if i had a real lightsabers it would be that orange one

[1MuseFan1]

This is one of the best lightsaber duel's I've seen on Youtube. Ignore the haters, this is amazing!

[DirectorJKelly]

I was thinking at first this was the mark valley from human target, boston legal, fringe, ha. I guess not

[PraetorDrew]

@DirectorJKelly I'll do a fight with him if you can hook us up.

[DirectorJKelly]

That would be pretty intense, I tried to get him for my film also but his agent and all this paper work, insurance, etc. Ill send him a quick email though

[Majorleaguez1]

@PraetorDrew How or where can I get the spark effect from?

[419Films]

Very nice job. Love the ending. :-)

[ONEGUY090]

@Eldermooth

No kidding Sherlock -_-

[BaronNathanel]

nice job on selecting the cyan and yellow sabers, that definitely in itself sets you guys apart from the million of other vids out there. Great job on the work guys, enjoyed it thoroughly :D

[thyrf1ng]

thats really cool man really nice special affects and fight coreography(i hope i spelled it right ;P)

[buster999121]

i hate those spark but lightsaber is good

[XSionTheWolfX]

@Eldermooth Oh my god. . . are you retarded? You're retarded, aren't you?IT'S OBVIOUSLY FUCKING FAKE.

[H3Adm4N5]

were did you god your light sabers

[iamcleric]

very nice can u make m video like that?! lol

[PraetorDrew]

@Eldermooth No, d00d. Itz r34al!

[DirtyJewbz]

@PraetorDrew Hahahaha!

[azorrrr]

@PraetorDrew no it's fake

[andy5579]

Ace, great job guys

@Eldermooth lmao no shit.
