  • The man who choreographed this fight was hired to do the light saber choreography in the Star Wars prequels.

  • this is how star wars should have done there fighting lol

  • That's definitely form II ;)

  • Why isn't this available on mobile?

  • 1:26 " i am not left handed" love how he switches while dueling .takes skill

  • Love it!

  • totally awesome fight scene

  • y didnt you do the rest of the fight scene

  • @treyster212 Listen to the last line :)

  • Awesome video, however FU for not allowing embedding lol

  • Ironic that Mark Hamill is left-handed, but was forced to fight right-handed as Luke Skywalker. The fight director in the Princess Bride, was behind the original trilogy and as Mr. Hamill revealed, actually did Vader's sword fights. I was hoping for at least 1 promiment Jedi in the prequels to be a lefty, yet not even an extra is seen, though they did try to get a lefty extra. At least Palpatine wasn't a lefty.

  • @Sabesombra But many lefties I know are indistinguishable from the sith....

  • Wasn't this from the movie where he tricked some old dude in to drinking his old poison because he himself had spent years becoming immune to it?

  • @SurvivalOutpost01 yes it was.That part of the movie is from the movie the princess bride

  • @Dangerbean8282 Ah, thank you very much.

  • amazing!

  • ... I was watching the video and noticed it wouldn't end up making it to the end of the fight. Just as I was yelling in my head "It sucks he didn't finish this!" he popped up on the screen and said "Get used to disappointment."

    My mind is officially blown.

  • Amazing effects! By far the best 'saber-upgrade' film short I've seen thus far.

  • Sith often use RED blades because the synthetic crystals when used with the dark side have the potential to "break" a jedi blade...

  • This is pretty cool. You probably used photoshop or something like that.

  • This is awesome! ever thought about uploading the whole movie switched with lightsabers?

  • Luke: "I do not mean to pry, but why do you wear a mask and helmet all the time?

    Were you burned in the face with acid or some'ting?"

    Vader: "Oh no, nothing like that... it's just that they're terribly comfortable. I think in the future of space travel, everyone will be wearing them."

    Luke: "Can I take this mask off, and see your real face one last time?"

    Vader: "I don't think so..."

    Luke: "I *must* know."

    Vader: "Get used to disappointment."

  • "Your slimy Humperdinck never told you what happened to that farm boy, did he?"

    "He told me enough. He told me YOU killed him!"

    "NO, Princess Buttercup. I AM your lover."

    "NOOOOO! That's not true! That's impossible!" (jumps into ravine)

  • I was talking with a guy from Canada that my friend knows, and we just kept spouting random lines from this. It was epic.

  • My name is Inigo Montoya. I am your father. Prepare to die.

  • CHECK THIS NEW COOL LIGHTSABER BATTLE!! watch?v=AMKJ3JA84qc

  • so much awesomeness

  • *breathing sound* LUKE....I...AM....NOT....LEFT-­HANDED!

    Luke: No.....NOOOOOOOO-wait.....I'm not left handed either!

    DV: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

  • Wow nice job man. This appealed to both my Star Wars and Princess Bride sides. :P

  • you even put sparks flying. Brilliant!

  • Superb.. Bob anderson choreography.. Some of his best.. Combined with genius FX work .. brilliant thanks

  • EPIC!

  • I swear some of these lightsaber vids on youtube look better than the effects in the real movies! (the new ones anyway) Good job!!

  • MY GOD i wish you would complete the entire fight like this! but even the half you have here is AMAZING

  • Psionic Spirit Rapiers! (Dorkness rising weapon)

  • some how the lightsabers make it seem more skilful

    even though it looked ridiculously epic anyway

  • you are my hero. WE ARE NOT WORTHY.

  • (ahem) I hereby award you, VFXFreak, with this Official Seal of Awesomeness.

  • One of the best-done lightsaber overlays on youtube, great work!

  • That was kinda awesome...

  • How do you do the Lgith saber effect and sounds?

  • hey im not left handed either

  • You're right, life is too short...so finish what you start...like this epic video. :P

  • My name is Luke Skywalker. You killed my father. Prepare to die.

  • 'im not left handed either' the second best bit in the film

  • ADDED TO MY FAVORITES!!!

  • Real perfect. 5 Stars. Real perfect effects. It looks like the creator of this movie wanted to make this movie with lightsabers.

  • this is freaking awesome

  • lol i love how you left the fencing sword hilts on the "lightsabers"- if I had a lightsaber, it would SO have a hilt like that!

  • Cool....but I hate that Farm boy Pirate guy....

    5 years of Pirating vs 20 year Swordsman

    come on

  • @Downloadsbacon

    Some people progress faster than others.

  • @osidehooligan

    Sure....I guess so....I still don't buy it though

  • SW + PB = double awesome! :D But Inigo with red lightsaber? He's good!

  • When in doubt...LIGHTSABERS!

    When NOT in doubt...LIGHTSABERS!

    For the hell of it...LIGHTSABERS!

  • I think this is the best lightsaber fight I've ever seen (not just because the fact this fight is awesome) but you've done an amazing job with the lightsabers I love the fact that sparks even flew in places brilliant.

  • You know what is also perfect is that even their costumes happen to be pretty Jedi-like. Montoya has the earth tone look and threads of a Jedi. And the setting they are fighting in is pretty similar to a beginning level that you play in the "Jedi Academy" video game. Awesome coincidence man, I can't tell you enough how enjoyable this video is.

  • Amazing video, great job!

  • this is cool, I love it!

  • 8 people found this inconceivable...

  • Very well done. Awesome video.

  • Pure. Awesomeness. x10.

  • I love how all these commentators assume this was done by a male with no life.

  • I love this the only down side is I cant play it on my ipod app, it would be sweet if that were changed!

  • @TheHeavensthug Troll....

  • DUDE! You cut out the best part of the scene!!!

  • i'm amazed my computer didn't crash from the awesomeness.

  • I can beat them with my hands tied behind my back using only my dik

  • I'm not left handed either...

  • lol at the end

  • Oh. My. Gosh. Waaaay too much awesome rolled into one video to handle *twitch*

  • FTW! Awesome!

  • 1:48 is the most epic thing in the world

  • STAR WARS SUXXXXXXXXX DIK

  • If your reading this your a god dam nerd. Light sabers are corny, and not real. i understand hobbies and all, but find one where u may be able to score a human women. good video

  • That's is the most ultimate thing I ever did see...

  • Aaahhhh, yes, this is why nerds are the best

  • jedis arnt mexican???

  • @mysnuggiesonfire Neither is Inigo. "I could give you my word as a Spaniard!"

  • @mysnuggiesonfire

    nice username

  • @TheRedheadkitten Thank you very much :D

  • @mysnuggiesonfire news flash thats because EARTH ISNT IN THAT GALAXY

  • I love this video. My only complaint would be that the lightsaber sounds overpower the dialog.

  • SO MUCH EPIC!!! 

  • 8 people are inconceivably stupid

  • i'd love to watch the entire movie like this!!!!

  • Pussyfooting wouldn't work as well in Starwars. We're talking about mini-gods in Starwars.

  • Why doesn't it work on the iphone? sad times :(

  • @mkraft81 'Cause it's overpriced piece of crap

  • @SHISCO1 actually it is by far and away the most useful piece of technology I've ever owned. And it doesn't work on any mobile phones. Android included.

  • I hadn't checked out this page for a while. Last time I looked it had just topped 2000 views. I don't know what happened but thanks! For the record, I never put much thought into the colors of the sabers. I liked red and blue. I'll probably never finish the whole fight because life is too short. The comments below are awesome. Almost 300,000 views... Inconceivable!

  • Comment removed

  • @VFXFreak You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

  • @VFXFreak Indeed it is too short but much more than this would be detrimental. Excellent work my friend. I hope to see your work in the movies some day!

  • @VFXFreak

    What software did you use?

  • 7 people hate lightsabers and puppies and anything cool whatsoever.... and they love the taliban. nuff said

  • I agree! This is much more realistic than the nonsense we see in SW with all the jumping around and spinning in circles crap. They would be terrified of the blade, just like these two are of each other's strikes.

  • Funny thing is, since lightsabers have no weight in the blade, and even the lightest touch can sever limbs, this style of fighting is much more appropriate for lightsabers than anything you see in Star Wars :)

  • @akalenda Soooooooo true!

  • @akalenda Not exactly true. Me being a star wars nerd, would fight against this. But, meh, I see no point. It's a vid. No reason to argue with it.

  • @akalenda, Slight touch can't sever limbs. only if it goes all the way through. Otherwise it just leaves deep, cauterized gashes.

  • Nicely done. Funnily enough the same sword-master, Bob Anderson, did the choreography for star wars and the princess bride.

  • Sweet! more plz. =)

  • he's left handed...it's bothering me...i dont know why....

  • Lightsabers are the coolest weapons ever imagined, imho. The colors, the sound effects, everything about them is awesome.

  • AWESOME!!! EPIC WIN!!!!

  • that's awesome!

  • Same swordplay choreographer as the original star wars, so quite fitting actually.

  • @chainmaillekid If that's true it surely doesn't show because the duel in A New Hope is a joke by comparison.

  • @Yamagashi not really considering that in Princess Bride the sword fights are between fairly young men (particularly this one) and in A New Hope the fight was between two old men that were probably a bit out of practice

  • Six people slipped and hit the dislike button.

  • @dave97202 Not as much of a train wreck as your comment. If you're going to mock someone, at least learn how to do it properly.

  • I object to Inigo having a red lightsaber. He is not evil. Otherwise, fabulous.

  • Only the coolest video ever

  • That, ladies and gents, was epic.

  • Trolls go home. Why can't you just enjoy a video for what it is?

  • 1:06 thats the move Vader failed to execute against Obiwan. Thats how arms and legs got sabered off!

  • @dave97202 There was no flaw in my logic, nor were the answers I provided a rhetoric nature. I was simply trying to explain what your logic is overriding. There was no intent on smearing this video, however, it may seem that way since I included a word "disappointed". I was just trying to do a simple mash up of 2 movies, as this parody, or w/e you would like to call it, had 2 visual scenes mashed up. I went with a script mash up. No need to get hostile over it.

  • Great! What movie is this again?

  • @jwunschie14 trolls 2

  • 6 people did not get used to disappointment.

  • FREAKIN' AWESOME!!!!!

  • This is better than any lightsaber battle in any of the six Star Wars Movies. Wow

  • @dave97202 Surveying your spelling, I am guessing English is not your main. That being said, I don't know how much media you know of. I tried to explain the Darth Vader thing, but let me further clarify a half-assed joke to it's death. Darth Vader is a main villain from SW. His quotes are memorable, being one is "Most Impressive". Since this scene is a mashup, part being from SW, I also combined the dialogs. One from Princess bride "Prepared to be disappointed", and SW's "Most Impressive".

  • Well done! Kickin Vid.

  • My kids and I watched it and we loved. I really like the sparks off the rocks. That was a lot of sound effects work. Golf clap. Clap clap clap. 

  • "Noooo ... !"

  • five people want The Dread Pirate Roberts to have the red light saber

  • @kgia59 well technically he is the DREAD PIRATE roberts... so he should have a red one... as for inigo he should have purple.. because he is just a unknowing acomplice.

  • how about a couple droids randomly doing their business in the background? Perchance even passing between the duelists a couple times? That would be a laugh! But even without, an EXCELLENT video! Well done!

  • I want the farmer boy to breathe like Darth Vader. Afterall, he IS dressed in black. There is one shot especially when he is seen only from behind. That would be a good place to insert just one harsh breath!

  • LOL

  • ingenius...i love it!

  • 2001st like!!

  • lol 6 dislikes wtf? i bet the hate puppies and ice cream also

  • this is the best video I've seen replacing swords with lightsabers, the effects are right also, good job

  • I was playing chess with an uncle at a family party one time. After a few moves he told me: "I see you're using Benoni's Defense" ... naturally, I countered with: "I though it fitting, considering the rocky terrain" ... I don't think he got it. =\

  • Those light sabers should make short work of the ROUS's!!! Awesome video!!!

  • excellent....my smile of the day

  • excellent!! My smile of the day!

  • Omg most epic swordfiggt remastered! Brilliant!!!

  • @dave97202 Oh. I was actually just making a joke. As Darth Vader has a famous cue of "Most Impressive", I parodied what the end of this clip's "get use to disappointment". I combined the two, in effort to get a chuckle. The clip itself was ok.

  • normally i would hate someone messing with this movie... but this was done so well.... good stuff.

  • Great video! =)

  • No more rhymes! I mean it!

  • @SoldierSide77

    do you want a peanut?

  • @SoldierSide77 anybody want a c-3p0 translation droid?  aaah peanut?

  • now the younguns know why this was so cool....

  • Five Scicilians voted dislike while death was on the line.

  • I don't understand how anyone could dislike this video.

  • Your lack of left-handedness displeases me.....

  • Most Disappointed. 

  • Hello, my name is luke skywalker. you kill my father. prepare to die.

  • Is there anything in the world that sounds more bad-ass than a lightsaber? I think not.

  • Comment removed

  • That was awesome!

  • There are no words to describe how compleatly awesome that was

  • Dude, you really made me smile today. Thanks for posting this. And if you made it, triple kudos.

  • So awesome.........

  • Love it

  • AWSOME!

  • If I were a Jedi knight I would design my light saber with a 16th century Spanish rapier hilt too; that looks badass

  • so great!!!!

  • EPICNESS !!!

    I LOVE THE PRINCESS BRIDE !

  • I'd absolutely love to see the reminder of this fight in such a talented way. Very good job, you've won yourself another subscriber.

  • I love you.

  • This is win in ways not yet conceived of...

  • @RKStrikerJK5 LMAO so they are INCONCEIVABLE!!! ways?? :0)

  • @lilmizweasley I do not think you know what that word means. ;)

  • @RKStrikerJK5 haha gotta love PB quotes! :D
