Revenge of the 5th: The Ultimate Fight: Anakin Skywalker vs Obi-Wan Kenobi

It's Revenge of the 5th and I wanted to post something about one of my favorite movies, Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith. This movie shows you the sorrow and drama of the unfortunate take over of Chancellor Sheev Palpatine, the demise of the Jedi and continued downward spiral of Anakin Skywalker. And you see one of the best fights in the entire Star Wars movie series, Obi-Wan Kenobi versus Anakin on Mustafar. I'll give honorable mention to Palpatine's two separate fights between Jedi Masters Mace Windu and Yoda as well as Obi-Wan's fight against General Grievous. All three fights were pretty awesome.

Now back to Anakin and Obi-Wan's fight, this was truly spectacular. Anakin was using his anger to fuel his fight against Obi-Wan. However, his former Jedi Master had years of training on his side and not to mention Anakin let his overconfidence fool him into thinking he could win. And we all see how that turned out for him. Despite Obi-Wan's best efforts which left his former Padawan severely injured and near death, Anakin, however, was not to be defeated that day. He would soon take on a new horrifying appearance as Darth Vader and would reign terror throughout the galaxy.

Things may have gone exceptionally wrong for the Jedi and galaxy in this movie but at the end you see there is still hope that one day the Empire and Sith will be stopped.
