Since the epic Star Wars Kid YouTube explosion 4 years ago, and the inevitable lightsaber remix, practically everybody with a computer has been taking a whack at adding lightsabers to some of their favorite things.
Everybody from Bruce Lee to Monty Python to sexy lingerie models have been wielding lightsabers on the web for years now, so it’s a bit difficult to pick out a decent video when it comes through.
That is, until now.
Youtube user VFXFreak has managed to squeeze two timeless franchises together: Star Wars and The Princess Bride by making the duel at the cliffs one with lightsabers.
Check out the video after the jump, and keep your eye out for more great web videos like this one to emerge.

This week On the Radar some details emerge on the next Jack Ryan adventure, a possible front runner to fill Peter Parker’s shoes, and bad news for The Green Hornet.
Marvel continues end credit Easter Eggs in Iron Man 2
In keeping with tradition of recent Marvel flicks this Summer’s Iron Man 2 will allegedly have extra footage post-credits. While it’s hard to confirm just what exactly will be included this time around, speculation surrounds possible appearances by Thor and/or Captain America. This of course leads into those two films hitting screens next Summer. So, make sure to hang around after the film.
Michael Bay set to destroy your TV
I suppose it was only a matter of time before Michael Bay decided to get into the television production game. While the reality TV project probably won’t have as many explosions as the Transformers films, it definitely sounds like a premise only Bay could conceive:
“For my first television project I wanted to do something that had never been done before, and I believe that ‘One Way Out’ accomplishes that,” Bay said. “Combining unique twists, death-defying challenges, and stunning visuals, we are reinventing the genre, showing just how far people will go when they are stripped of their bare necessities and forced to do whatever it takes to survive.”
That description sounds vaguely familiar. Maybe this series is just re-edited behind-the-scenes material from his movie shoots. If that’s the case, I’m totally on board with this show, too bad no network has picked up the project yet. Come on guys, this is Michael Bay, master of explosions, what could possibly go wrong. Boom!
