3-Lions Posted May 19, 2002 Share Posted May 19, 2002 hi all just a thought i had! if any1 could clear up WHY the jedi have a clear/blue/green/red/purple lightsaber i'd be most grateful im a little bit puzzled WHY obi-wan (in ep4) has a blue saber, shouldnt his be green to indicate a fully trained light master? as luke seems to move from clear to blue then to green in ep3-4-5 my understanding >> padawans =clear light = blue/green (thou need confirmation on its meaning) and dark = red i saw on JAY LENOS show, samuel claims he has a purple saber 'to stand out from the crowd' but he also looked like he knew more then he was giving away!!!! maybe purple = clouded jedi??? any links to a saber colour guide would be most welcomed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthNoodles Posted May 19, 2002 Share Posted May 19, 2002 Uh...I think you're talking out your arse. The color of the lightsaber for Jedi doesn't mean anything. the prgression from one color to the other for Luke from ESB to ROTJ would be because he lost his at teh end of ESB so he made a new one. Anakin uses a blue light saber for most of AOTC. Yes, red means Sith but that's all the meaning that exists in the colors. BTW, I don't remember ever seeing a CLEAR Lightsaber.

dorain8 Posted May 20, 2002 Share Posted May 20, 2002 THE ONLY reason mace windu's lightsaber is purple is bacause samuel l jackson asked lucas if his character could have a purple lightsaber Lucas said sure saber colors are decided i think by the crystal used (not 100% sure but i think i read that somewhere) the only restriction is the sith have red sabers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbdrummer Posted May 20, 2002 Share Posted May 20, 2002 Dorain, you are 100% correct about everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bylak Posted May 21, 2002 Share Posted May 21, 2002 I don't think it's a restriction to Sith to have red lightsabers, I think it's just a preference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewok Hunter Posted May 21, 2002 Share Posted May 21, 2002 I read in one of the ep. 2 guide books somthing about a certain kind of crystal used by the sith to make the saber slightly more powerful, this crystal makes the saber red colored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coupes. Posted May 21, 2002 Share Posted May 21, 2002 Here's what i think's gonna happen with mace windu in ep3 : he's gonna get his ass kicked, either by bobba fett (windu killed his father remenber -- sweet revenge) or by vador who'll start to wipe the jedi from the galaxy. and the deal about the purple saber is only, like it's been said a couple of time already, because samuel l. jackson wanted to stand out.

Ferox Posted May 21, 2002 Share Posted May 21, 2002 oh yeah im glad i saw a purple saber in the movie, i love purple sabers. and sam jackson is a cool jedi . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
te necabo Posted May 21, 2002 Share Posted May 21, 2002 1. Samuel Jackson likes the color purple 2. He asked Lucas for purple to "stand out" 3. Lightsaber colors are defined by the type of crystal in them. blue or green. 4. In the Mace Windu commercial on the official sight it says he has something like ... an electricsomething lightsaber and not a crystal lightsaber ( making it purple not green,blue, or red) Luke's saber is blue because that's the saber that anakin left for him (most likely his next saber) After he loses that saber he builds a new one which is green. There's a theory that Obi Wan kept Qui-Gon's lightsaber and Luke went back to Ben's hut on Tatooine to see if he could lightsaber parts and used the crystals and some parts from Qui-Gon's saber... thus making it green.

OldSkoolJedi Posted May 21, 2002 Share Posted May 21, 2002 Actually I Know What Lions Is Talking About, The "Clear" Lightsaber is actually "White" . Let me explain, In ANH when Luke first gets his lightsaber, look closly at the colour and the lightsaber appears to be white. I'm not sure why but go have a look and u'll see what he means. I Think The Probably just didn't know howto make it coloured back then, i assume this because the lightsaber looks "flat" when they swing it.

Topdan Posted May 21, 2002 Share Posted May 21, 2002 Mace Windu doesn't have a crystal lightsaber. He has an electrum lightsaber. You can hear that the nois made by windu's saber is very different than the crystal sabers. As for why he has that... well i dont know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vizor Posted August 3, 2002 Share Posted August 3, 2002 im readed in a starwars comic that: blue - Jedi Green - Family red - Sith purple - confilct orange - war yellow - married but i dont think that its true because as an jedi you cant get a family or get married.

It is highly unlikely that a teenage Boba Fett is going to kill Mace Windu. The kid still probably has nightmares about his father being decapitated. I think Mace will fall in a face off with Sidious, once he realizes that Sidious is the Dark Lord of The Sith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Rival Posted August 11, 2002 Share Posted August 11, 2002 Everyone says it's because of the crystal but if you read at starwars.com then you will find out that the crystal lightsaber is EU. I like the idea of the crystal but it migt not be true, I think that anything EU shouldn't really be listened to cause GL doesn't make it up. I for love to read EU but GL has the final word and you never know, we might find out that sabers don't use crystals, just like we found out that padawans are trained at the jedi temple and not in a ship. I just wanted to say that and I am sure someone will say I'm wrong but I just wanted to add what I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotionMan Posted August 11, 2002 Share Posted August 11, 2002 Dark Rival your right it is EU. We pointed it out in an earlier thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Bodle Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 I reckon Mace will be killed by Dooku. Dooku seems to be very strong maybe not as strong as Yoda but strong, i don't reckon Windu is anywhere near to being as strong as Yoda so i reckon Dooku will kick his ass. Then Dooku will be killed by Yoda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotionMan Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 I dont think Yoda will just kill for the hell of it. The only reason he faught Dooku was becasue Dooku would have killed Obi-Wan and Anakin if Yoda didnt interfere. Plus Yoda most likely has some emotional connection with Dooku since he was his old master. Yoda was porobably going easy on Dooku durring the fight.
