why dint the emperor give darth vader?

in ROTS when anakin was ignited into a sith why didnt sdous give anakin a red light saber showing his alliegance to the dark side of the force? and dont you think it would have looked better in the mustafar battle with kenobi if anakin was red and kenobi was blue?

I guess he didn't have a spare one anymore
besides I like the blue vs. blue in the fight

It gives more the impression of friend vs. friend instead of Jedi vs. Sith. Which was exactly the point of the fight.

hey stinger

no idea by the way

Hah! Another Stinger?

I CAUGHT HIM FIRST

GIVE ME THE CREDIT

GOTCHA NOW STINGER78 YOU LITTLE WEASLE

I think it is because at the time he didn't have the authority to have a red one as he hadn't completed his training so therefore he kept his old one for the batlle

Lol, ignited.

Stinger may be an arse, but he's good for a laugh...

if anakin needed a red lightsaber he could of asked me and i would have made him one palps/sidious didnt give him one because lets face it are you gonna mess with a lunatic that kills

"younglings"

besides dont you think its a bit wierd the way palpatine is talking to anakin after the whole mace VS sidious fight i mean he is practicly serenading anakin

"the fooorrrccee is strong with-aa-youuu"
and looks as though hes at orgasm point

perhaps after all that sidious did try to give anakin a red saber

would you take anything from someone who has obviously been playing with himself

i completely agree with Cascador,

you couldnt have put it betta 😉 lol

but the question was right in a way, he is supposed to be a sith, but Cascador is right 😉

borg Their wasn't time to make one for him then he had to move quickly to convert the republic into the galactic empire and he sent anakin to the lava planet to take care of the confederacy members if obi wan and him never fought maybe when he returned to coruscant he would have remade his to have a red blade instead of the blue. The blue on blue fight does rock.

As everyone keeps saying, the basic reason is that there wasnt time for Darth Vader to make a new one yet..... Other priorities! But, the blue vs blue lightsaber is symbolic of Anakin's conflict within himself. As you see in Episode II, Anakin keeps either nearly losing his lightsaber or damaging it, thats deliberate by Lucas. When he loses his lightsaber, it also coinsides with him losing his humanity completely.

As well as the reasons already given above for the blue on blue duel, it was most likely for the same reason Luke's lightsaber color was changed from blue to green in RotJ - So the blade would be visible against the surroundings.

ACTUALLY LUKES CHANGED COLOUR BECAUSE HE LOST THE BLUE ONE!!!!!!!DUH!

btw---they did make it red! look, heres a deleted scene, lol.

Luke lost Anakin's saber and then constructed his own. Originally, this was supposed to have a blue blade (and was filmed as such) but then Lucas realized that the blue blade wasn't very clear against the blue of the sky, so the footage was re-rotoscoped so the blade was green. If you're going to be a smartass, at least have all the facts at your disposal.

Why? Because what I said was accurate and you don't like it? Ask anyone the production reason that the color of Luke's blade was green, and that's what they'll tell you.

dont you think your a little off-topic and should be discussing that in the original trilogy forum

just a thought

It's because Luke was handed a blue lightsaber in A New Hope.

The weird thing thou is that i bought Vaders Lightsaber from episode three from master replicas when it came out. Its basically his pre a new hope saber.

So how come it was "made" in production but never used????

Although i read it on supershadow there was a rough script that said something along the lines of:

Obi wan knocked Anakins saber away and thought that he was defensless so tried to talk some sense into him and then anaking pulled a new saber (the episode 3 vader version) from the back of his belt or cloak and the fight continued with a red on blue saber fight.

Personally i think that would have been a good idea. Sure they would have had trouble explainning how he had time to build a new one but it still would have looked cool.

it would definately put an end to this thread or perhaps the thread would be called "how did anakin have time to build his red saber"

but i am probably wrong i usually am lol
