This article talks about the creation of the 'Ninja Yoda' and how skeptical the guys at ILM were about bastardizing the character...

Interesting info... ".. superball loose in a toystore"

Lucas couldnt go 6 episodes without showing atleast once why Yoda was the Master. Sorry, he just had to do it, and I am glad he did.

Thank you Pesco.

Sooner or later you have to show off why everyone bows to Yoda's wisdom. It's not just because he talks cool. It's not because he speaks as if his mind were full of the wisdom of a billion fortune cookies.

Strong with the Force is He, a luminous being, NOT THIS CRUDE FLESH.

You see it in Ep 5 when he lifts the X-Wing out of the swamp. Now you see it in Ep 2 when he has his showdown.

I thought the stopping the force-lighting and pushing aside all that rock junk Dooku was throwing was cooler =p

Yeah I would've rather seen "immovable, unbreachable master yoda" than "rampaging rabid hamster yoda of doom", but that's just a difference of flavor. I still liked that they let Yoda cut loose.

I'd have loved to have seen him just stand there, arms crossed or something, controlling the saber with the force, without breaking a sweat

Actually I'm with TOP on this...I halfway expected to see Yoda Force control his saber.

Don't forget, not only is Yoda the Master, but he is the most famous Jedi Swordsman - he had to have backed that claim also. The fact that he had lived over 600 years was proof enough of how powerful he was.

Well, it was almost 900 if I recall.

And that could also be due to his race.

I almost fully expected that...I was actually kinda shocked. Yoda, to me, seemed above fighting close in.

My only complaint about it was Yoda yelling as he fought (Dooku didn't have to do any yelling ). Besides that, it was a blast; the audience cheered when he pulled out the lightsabre (I saw it on opening day).

When my (58 year old) Dad and I went to see it we looked each other with giddy looks on our faces when Yoda pushes back his robe and uses telekinesis to draw his 'saber.

Go see LotR. Wait for video on AotC. I don't plan to see Spiderman, so I can't give advice, there.
