Although I still think he should have just died when she stabbed him in the gut. The super choreographed fights in the prequel trilogy are often used as a plus, but I just don't agree. The Darth Maul fight was interesting because it was the first time seeing it like that, but it got boring pretty quickly.
Unpopular opinion alert.

Obi Wan and Anakins duel was one of the best scenes in all nine movies IMO. The emotion was there, the stakes were there, and the choreography was excellent and the music was perfect. I felt like the CGI team worked overtime on those shots because even the CGI is passable vs the rest of the prequels.

Rey and Kylo's duel was good and all, but what were the stakes? Did they really hate each other? JJ Abrams confirmed THAT is a lie.
