Christensen elaborated that Anakin's decision to leap over Obi-Wan stemmed from 'the arrogance of youth,' as he may have believed he could outsmart his Master in that moment.
The stunt coordinator Nick Gillard mentioned that the original sequence for the duel was more concise, with Obi-Wan cutting Anakin due to defensive necessity, not over-elaborate theatrics.
Christensen pointed out a compelling theory that connects Anakin's risky move to Obi-Wan's earlier victory over Darth Maul, emphasizing how the past could have influenced Anakin's choices.
Fans have debated Anakin's leap as either a rash mistake or a calculated risk, especially after Obi-Wan gained 'the high ground,' marking a pivotal moment in their duel.
