All cinematic lightsaber battles are not equal. This is a ranking of the Star Wars films based on the Lightsaber battles that they portray.
The Lightsaber is an iconic and unique part of the Star Wars universe much in the same way we associate the Proton Pack with Ghostbusters, or the phaser to Star Trek. The inclusion of this futuristic light sword into Star Wars came from George Lucas’ love of fantasy serials, which frequently featured characters with swords. Much in the same way that medieval Knights represented a regal and noble order of combatants, the Jedi represents an individual devoted towards upholding peace and justice. It was only fitting then that they received a weapon that would represent the dignity of their status and charge. Of course, those good guys need someone to fight, and so the major enemies of the Jedi also tend to have Lightsabers.

WWE is beginning to reap the rewards of their highly-praised developmental system, Nxt. The Nxt base in Florida has become a Mecca for potential WWE Superstars of tomorrow to either learn their craft, or to adjust it accordingly having made their way through some difficult years on the independent circuit.
Proof of the success of Nxt (in it’s current format) was rubber stamped at WrestleMania in April. One former Nxt talent in Roman Reigns headlined the event with Brock Lesnar, while former Shield compatriot and the first ever Nxt Champion, Seth Rollins, cashed in his Money in the Bank contract. Rollins is now the first Nxt Champion to ever reach the pinnacle of the industry, after he snatched the WWE World Heavyweight Championship from Reigns’ and Lesnar’s grasp.
There’s no doubt the future looks bright, too. Neville has just made his debut on Raw and SmackDown,...

John Amaechi: "Proof I do still get off the ground (just about!)"
Retired NBA basketball legend John Amaechi shoots the first basket in the new Olympic basketball arena in London today as part of the preparations for the 2012 Olympic Games. How cool is it an out player get's to christen the arena? Big Glee news: the replacement for Idina Menzel as coach of Vocal Adrenaline is none other than Cheyenne Jackson! It's a recurring role, but there can never be enough Cheyenne in my life. Glee is also replacing Tenaka (Patrick Gallagher) as the football coach. The new coach will be named Shannon Beiste, played by actress Dot Jones. That should provide some female rivalry for Sue Sylvester, and mayhem in the lockerroom for shy Finn.
