Sci-Fi Shinobi Showdowns

These Jedi Ninjas Display an Epic Duel

— December 19, 2011 — Pop Culture
George Lucas should take note of the Jedi Ninjas video if he wants to know what it takes to put together an epic battle.

Team 2X Production's Jedi Ninjas fuses the world of Star Wars and Shinobis together in this epic clip that most wish was choreographed in every flick from the franchise. It starts off with a hero battle red lightsaber wielding henchmen who are clearly a part of the Empire. These men are taken down easily, which means it's time for the boss to take action. What results is an epic lightsaber fight that brings martial arts into play and of course, the Force. But all is not what it seems to be in this clip. Watch the end to learn the humorous twist.

3. Cinematography and Choreography Innovation - There's an opportunity to come up with new techniques to film and choregraph epic sci-fi and martial arts battles, making them standout from traditional fight scenes.
