Obi-Wan vs. Darth Vader Is the Lamest Fight Ever

"The first climactic lightsaber battle in the Star Wars franchise was....pretty lame. It was two old men kinda prodding at each other - of course, this was long before they had the budget for better choreography, or even the idea that lightsaber battles could be dynamic, visceral fights, with elaborate moves and flips and stuff. Still, while that original battle is full of emotion and meaning, it's hard to go back to it and not recognize how LAME it is..."

From what I remember, that first saber fight used actual glowing prop swords that were in danger of breaking if swung to hard.
In the subsequent films they switched to adding the glow in post production.

Also is there anyone who actually thinks the "climatic" lightsabre fight between Anakin and Obi-wan in ep3, was BETTER than this?

Elaborate moves and flips do not make a good fight.
