Darth Maul Fan Film - The Apprentice
« on: March 05, 2016, 02:28:10 PM »
Just watched this on youtube. It was released today and I sort of stumbled upon it, thought it to be quite awesome and wanted to share it.

I hope, I picked the right category, but it is sort of PT...

Amazing quality. After recently watching a Star Trek fan film (Horizon), I am just blown away at the caliber in quality, acting, and skill that Star Wars fan films seem to attract.

The only part that would've put it over the top for me would be an accurate Maul saber. That said, I can accept that perhaps this is a precursor saber before he built the other...

Great find!

Here is the precursor that led to the Darth Maul -- Apprentice




... the making of it where the creators mention wanting to film something on a bigger scale, ie Darth Maul --- Apprentice

It's a good fan film; better than expected. Enjoyed seeing what fan film can do nowadays.

Compared to the best martial arts films, the lightsaber battle choreography left something to be desired. The film would often cutaway whenever Maul slices or spears through one of the Jedis. Not saying it's bad though.

Fantastic film. Love the idea of seeing Maul's "Right of Passage" persay. Very creative.  :cool:

That's what I thought as well. Although I really liked the choreo of TPM, in my opinion this is even better.

The only thing that does not fit so much is how stubborn the Jedi master is, leading them all to certain destruction - especially his Padawan - who is also quite emotional. Not in a bad way though - reminded me a little of Ahsoka.

Apart from that - I would rather have liked to see the more movie accurate sabers they used in the precursor - I think costumes and make-up are done very well and the acting is very decent! Especially on Maul and the Togruta Jedi.

I really felt right.
