Duality

This movie is by far my favorite fan film. The guys that put it together are in the movie business by career but used regular software like Adoba and others to create this film. It caught so much attention they eventually were hired by ILM.

This may have been posted here before, I don think it has. Either way, enjoy..

Certainly a complete work, but damnit, why do people insist on doing saber staff if they can't actually do it? The sword work was much more convincing and exciting.

But crap, that was an amazing ton of work.

Wha? Why'd he shock them at the end?

Also: paintball masks and swim goggles? Not very Star-Warsy.

Edited to say I didn't want to come off as totally negative. I'm impressed by it. Just perturbed by some weird decisions is all.

I am on the same page as X'an, I think they did a great job just some wierd choices, maybe it was on purpose, maybe to be funny.

Oh, and he shocked them because it was funny, especially after the credits, lol!

He shocked them because he is in the Dark and is supposed to give in to his emotions, presumably frustration in this case. Having to train another assistant is every manager's albatross.

Agree about the staff work vs. the sword work. They weren't bad at it, and staff work is slower than the shorter blades. But another month of practice wouldn't have been a bad idea.

Makes one wonder how the Little John vs. Robin Hood sequences were planned out. Many of those 40's and 50's actors were fencers, but few were trained staff wielders. How did they make those fights look so good?

No acter's union.

Supposedly, To make his voice hoarse for the famous filibuster scene in "Mr. Smith Goes To Washington", James Stewart periodically had his throat sprayed with bichloride of mercury.

Really? I heard that he was a method actor and that to practice for the fillibuster, he actually stayed up and ranted for as long as he was supposed to in the movie.

I can't find anything to confirm it, but I've heard it twice now. Snopes didn't have it nor could I find a referance to my version in any online bio.
