Star Wars Episode 3

I have no idea where you are getting the properties of the lightsaber colours from.  As far as I can tell it has always just been a personal preference for the wielder.

Either Doc pulled all that lightsaber properties stuff from thin air, or he's much more of a geek than I am. The only places I know of where crystal properties are mentioned are the KotOR games, and they're not exactly canon. Well, except for the Jedi Academy trilogy, but I prefer not to think about 3-foot blades that extend to 9 feet with the flip of a switch. :whistling:



I remember reading an interview with Lucas somewhere where he said that all Jedi use blue sabers, and that all Sith use red ones. The only reason Luke's saber is green in ESB and RoTJ was due to some technical difficulty or another, and I guess that's why we see green blades in the prequels. But it was intended that all sabers would be either red or blue.

Windu's purple saber was an exception, because Jackson specifically asked for his to be that color. I guess so he could be extra cool or something.
