I really like the duel between Anakin and Obi-Wan because the fight is really an extended recapitulation of their relationship that foreshadows their eventual fates. In the course of their battle, they accidentally break the systems maintaining the station, and then the whole thing falls apart around them. They both fall into a hellscape featuring a point of no return—the massive lava waterfall that will surely destroy them both. Obi-Wan starts out higher and immediately begins to climb up, away from the fire. Anakin pursues him, but is singularly focused on his rage, heedless of the danger around him. Obi-Wan swings off, landing on a lonely platform that gives him some small measure of solace amongst the firestorm. Anakin goes over the edge, but then at the very last second, he makes a huge leap back, landing on a tiny refuge that he damages in the process. Anakin invades Obi-Wan's temporary home, so Obi-Wan retreats to solid ground. Anakin here is not wise enough to recognize that Obi-Wan has already saved himself, and he gets horribly maimed for it. But ultimately, he's out of the hell world too. Also, that lava river is a fuckin' sweet practical effect.

The Ewoks, sophisticated people that they were, also possessed guard rail technology.
