Not bad! I like this! I love how it explains the forms in different phases.

Actually I would watch these just to see how the Form is actually executed and the acrobatics is what impresses me the most, I am 100% not watching this for the -theory-

.
It's pretty amazing to see people devoted to that kind of stuff, really great channel.

Yeah actually seeing the forms being physically executed is what excites me most about that channel, I can't wait to see how the other forms are performed.

Just saying. I find the theory to be as much enjoyable especially with that guy. Those guys are cool though.

Great find, Kro! Definitely adding it to my channel list. It's crazy the amount of fan work there is out there and it all came from a 'shot in the dark' sci-fi film in the 70s.

I have a feeling... that since a Jedi religion actually exist. Someone will have enough money to fund saber training as a martial art, sort of like Kendo and all the other weapon based Martial Arts that exist.

Pssh... you think that's to far, how about people starting to realize a whole new aspect of spirituality and connecting with the universe allowing for that person to... EHEM use the Force. XD

The vast majority of Eastern 'Religions' beat you to it. And Jediism/Jedi Realism have been around for about thirty years now, so I'm gonna call this old news. Also, I presume you've heard of Tai Chi, Reiki, Qi Gong, 'Faith Healing', Chakra Manipulation etc etc? Same principles involved there...
And, yes, sadly, there have been
some groups who have thought to try and develop a 'martial art' based on the lightsaber, but when you consider swords and their martial art training systems have been around for several
thousand years, what you end up with in the modern era is either a) amateurs flailing around with a blade that have no real understanding of it, or b) professionals who use the lightsaber gimmick as a means of making a good deal of money out of very gullible people. If you want to learn to use a blade, go find a
real trainer: practice Iaido, for example, or the sword forms of Kung Fu. Go do some Fencing, or some Kendo.

Yes yes, but I guess what I mean was if it soared to a more grand scale... as if someone finally figured out how to use telekinesis or something like that. What if our Galaxy becomes the New Star Wars Galaxy....or if we left this one to a whole new galaxy. Like in Star Wars, where no one actually knows the origin of Humans and that they just assume it was from places like Courscant.

We'd all be dead, so would it really matter?
