You have to work from a cinematic standpoint and a continuity standpoint. My father and I will sit down many, many times and just go, “Well Batman can do this …” or “Well Vader can do that …” and “How can we get this …” and the fans want to see the lightsaber battle, so how do we work it in to where it makes sense to where fans won’t be like “Well that’s dumb, it can’t work.” How Batman was able to do what he needed to do, and trying to incorporate what the fans want to see. One is making so that it makes sense to where the simple story structure of it works. The biggest thing is, when creating this thing, is that there’s so many challenges.

I think if we had Vader now-a-days, we (would) see a lot of cool stuff which is what we were trying to do - 100 percent of the badass Vader that we thought him to be.Įither way, I’m a big Star Wars fan too, so I was happy with the ending.Ĭan you tell us about some of the challenges that you faced while producing the video? In the movies, he never does anything that is over-the-top fantastical and I think a lot of that has to do with the limitations of ’70’s effects. On the same aspect, Vader is this badass who just - we’ve never really seen him do anything badass. I would like to see Batman win, and we are doing an alternate ending. What Batman is to me is not what Batman is to you. I think it would be somewhat arrogant for me to define what Batman is. The Batman that hangs out with the Justice League that can beat Superman, that can beat Green Lantern, yeah, he could beat Darth Vader, but then you start to get very science fiction-y, so that’s why we let the fans vote. Personally, the Batman I like, the one that is a detective who should be solving child kidnappings and drug-cargo shipping, you know, I don’t think that Batman could beat Vader. I think there are certain incarnations of Batman that could beat Vader, and that there are certain incarnations of Batman that could not beat Vader. I am a huge Batman fan, he’s one of my favorite characters. This last episode seems to have divided the fanbase, who were you secretly rooting for? One of the stunt coordinators was the stunt coordinator on that show, so a lot of us were just like, “Hey this is a cool idea, let’s just keep doing it.” I played the Apache, the Spartan, and the main Pirate. Basically, we take two super-powered legends, whether its from comic books, television, movies, books, or anything (else), and have the fans debate and then we create kind of a fun live-action battle where we go at it, very much like the show Deadliest Warrior that was on SpikeTV.Ī few of the stunt guys were on that, I was on that.
