Luke's green saber: I have a hunch of what happened
I was playing with my tv, and I pumped up the tint. and Lukes lightsaber on the millenium falcon was totally blue. The crappy part was that every thing around him was tinted green. I am not a film or special effects know it all, but I have a hunch that either lowry or Ilm was working on that scene with a weird tint set up, and that is how it got screwed up. So thats my hunch. I don't know, what do you think?
I think your probably right, b/c there are a few instances where the saber colour seems to be wrong, in AOTC when Mace is next to dooku on the balcony and starts to block Jango's blaster fire his saber appears blue but then purple, and this happens at least once in each movie, and it prolly has alot to do with what your talking about
listen i saw thet movie yesterday and it seems that the green saber only can be seen on the DVDbox cause i have the VHSbox that came when ATTAK OF THE CLONES came. but on my film i cant see that green saber o dont know if it is because the poor quality on the VHS or its some thing else.i can tell ya that it seems more white than blue on mine film in t he ship so i cant really tell the colour when he is in the millenium falcon. i can see a weak blue colour in theh white but thats all i can see!
Look, I cant believe that this is an actual post!! The movie as ground breaking as it was used technology that was not as consistant as todays digital FX.. Accept it.. What this post should be about is, yeah the lightsabers still look like crap but why the hell is Hayden Christiansen in the last scence of ROTJ?!! With all the technology available today Lucas has truly suceeded in f'ing up a classic.
and yes there are flashes in the trench scene accompanied by fake thunder claps too if I remember corectly..
the lightsaber is clearly green on the falcon. what happend was obi-won had 3 light sabers, 2 blue and 1 green. obi-won died with one of the blue ones. luke got his hand cut of and there went the other blue one. so all we have left is the green light one luke was useing on the falcon. in jedi when vader says ''I see you've constructed a new light saber". luke is useing his persusaive powers on vader. so that explains the green light saber.

What the fuk?
We can blame two groups of people.
A) The restoration company for fuking up the color and sound and not making the suggestion to have the lightsabers fixed.
B) George Lucas and Rick McCallum who obviously don't know what quality control is and never viewed the discs to begin with.
Deliberate creative changes...what a crock.
ok you people are a Bunch of Idiots to think that ben had 3 sabers. . he only had his and the one for luke.. if you ever wold read a book you would learn that after luke lost his hand in the battle with vader and the end of esb that he would meet with lando on tatooine.. well where do you think a rebel would go while on a place full of scum and villany.. he went to bens house and studied and stayed there with the droids.. that is where he found bens spirit again and learned how to construct his own saber... if you would all pick up a book and read... the book about it is called Shadows of the Empire.
well numb-nuts, only one stupid ass noob said anything about 3 sabers. And since you pick up so many books and read so much, you should have picked up on that. So who the hell do you think you are coming in here on your first day talking shit to people? Why don't you holler at your noob buddy who brought up that ridiculous theory, and keep the rest of us out of your posts.
