    I mean like, do you think the force users get even stronger with the force every movie?


    but then we have the classic trilogy, that kinda messes up the whole thing becuase I don't think know if the a ot vader, and the ot obi-wan are stronger then the pt vader and obi, I duno what are your thoughts?

    No, they're not stronger IMO. The cyborg Vader lost some of his strength as he was maimed, so he never reached his full potential. Obi-wan spent over 20 years not using his Force powers much, hiding from the Empire. So they were much stronger in the PT than in the OT.

    When one side of the Force becomes stronger, the other one becomes weaker. They are complementary.
    In the PT we can see the Dark Side getting stronger and stronger, while Jedi lose their clarity (remember that they couldn't see that a Sith master was already leading the senate. They began to think of this when Dooku told them. And so on).
    The OT begins with the Dark Side at its height, while the Light Side is near to zero. But as Luke grows stronger through the three eps, the Dark Side begins to fall... that's why Vader could turn to the Light Side again, at the end.

    In lack of something better i could say the duels in the PT are faster than the OT ones

    None of them in the OT are that strong, or were able to show it, Sidious doesn't even use a saber in ROTJ, Vader was maimed, Luke was a beginner, ObiWan was old, etc

    I think it's just a matter or crappy filming techniques back when they made the OT. Nothing else.

    Besides, we only have like 3 OT duels to compare to. 2 times a student in the force (Luke) against a mutilated guy in a life-support suit and once a very old guy against the mutilated guy again. What kind of great saber-fights did you expect from those? :p

    I believe Micky Jedi, in that each side is complimentary. I also believe, however, that, what determines the balance is the use of each side.

    In the PT, the Jedi have ruled for several hundred years, with thousands of knights, whom have drained the Light side of the Force by their constant usage of it, while the Sith have existed with only two members, barely using the Force so not to be noticed. This gave much more power to the Dark Side, as we saw.

    In the OT, however, Palpatine, Vader, and their cohorts have been using the Force, while what was left of the Jedi used it barely at all, giving strength to the Light Side, and weakening the Dark Side.
