"That's a one handed weapon" "Oh yeah, that's right. I'm not a Wookie" Now I can't help but imagine that when George goes to sleep at night, he dreams that he's a wookie on Kashyyyk
George Lucas looking at the lightsabers: “This is Luke’s? And this is Darth Vader’s? Alright, I just got to figure out how to get rid of this one.” I love how this just shows that he hasn’t finished the script yet, and everyone is already designing and building the props.
Well in another webisode for Episode III "Two Worlds, One Movie", Lucas says "They're already building sets. God, help me! I'm gonna have to start this script pretty soon!" lol
If I was working on this movie, Seeing those guns, I'd just be too tempted to either take one or grab one while working and yell "pew pew" all the time

You're just being a human. =P Seriously though, who wouldn't want lightsabers? I hope they're invented before I die. Might be able to atleast fight like ObiWan from ANH or smt
Love how casual George is about things like the story behind grievous or how he'll get rid of Anakin's lightsaber between RotS and ANH. Just shows a good story doesn't have to be methodically planned out from start to finish, you can work with what you have and let a lot of little things fall into place later.
Millicente replicas are not as special as the real props. I would do anything to have Luke/Anakin's lightsaber hilt. The original one they made for A New Hope was made out of vintage camera parts, car parts, even Obi-Wan's original lightsaber from A New Hope had a WW1 British rifle grenade as the grip.
It's called a Graflex flash gun. You can buy authentic vintage Graflexs and exact replica parts like the switch box, buttons, circuit board card, etc...and you can make your own version that would be a perfect 1 to 1 copy of the original prop...with the only exception being that it wasn't used on set. Other than that, it would be every bit as authentic. I know, because I've done it. I've also gotten FX sabers commissioned and made for me, some even with very elaborate and intricate faux crystal chambers. They are very expensive, but very much worth it if you enjoy lightsabers as they are the closest thing you can get to actually owning a real functioning lightsaber. I have quite the collection now. I have 3 Graflex hilts. All in slightly different variations. The Episode 4 version, the Episode 5 version and Anakin's version from Episode 3. I have both Return of the Jedi Luke saber designs, the "hero" version and the one he used for combat scenes in the film. I've got Obiwans episode 1 and episode 3/4 hilts. It's quite the hobby for me.
+GraemexIrwinator No, because that's what he originally called it. When you have a name for something, and suddenly it changes, it's very hard to call it by its new name. Especially if that something is your own creation. Sure it's been a long time, but I think it will always be a laser sword to him.
GraemexIrwinator Don't worry about it. It's not that really common knowledge that Lucas originally called it a laser sword. In fact, it was only ever called a laser sword once in the movies, that one time being when Anakin finds out Qui-Gon is a Jedi.
They're flexibly called either one; it's a colloquialism. Anakin first tells Qui-Gon he knows the latter is a Jedi because he saw his "laser sword". Lucas thinks of that kind of nuanced detail.
Anakin's lightsaber has always been my favorite. I just think it has the coolest-looking handle. It's a shame that Luke ends up losing it along with his hand, to the lightsaber's original owner no less.
Same here those were some of the best saber props in my opinion, too thick now, I'm keeping my eye on this company youtube.com/@stuntsaberuniversity4942?si=gb5mxwoZvcQmsjuY
I die a little when he says "All I gotta do is get rid of this one" when he points to Lukes lightsaber. It's like he doesn't even give a shit by this film.

Cool vid. I love the montage of action scenes with lightsabers and blasters set to the Battle in the Snow track from the Empire Strikes Back soundtrack. It was very well edited by Lucasfilm for this documentary. Funniest part was when the guy snapped the rifle in half. The other looked like he wanted to kill him after that.
Tyler Crebs Nah, bud! Just learn how they make it thrn do it yourself! In fact, there is a nice channel here on UA-cam where a guy recreated a couple of Pokeballs. I'm actually thinking of making my own moulds and sculpts.
George is pure genius ! I'm glad he is away from the drama he got from the prequels ,so he can take a breather. But he needs to come back to redeem his creation 😩
normally by paying money (or offering services if so inclined) plenty of cheap ones from hasbro in toy shops/online but the good ones can be found from jq sabers (uk) or custom saber shop/ultrasabers (us) and a few others.. not sure who's doing what these days over the pond as im in the uk if you're skilled with a dremel or have a lathe etc..you can make your own ;)
the blade can be touched, apparently. it doesn't just melt whatever it is an object, Jedi do struggle when slicing through a metal blast door, just pressing the blade into objects won't work, it actually takes effort and force to cut through things. similar to a Katana
So, much of the interior stuff was done in London or in Skywalker Ranch. And then they did stuff on location in lets say Lake Como in Lombardy, Italy. How do you move these props from one Country to another?

Yes

No doubt they did that when the cameras were not looking.
I like the thought of Lucas still insisting on calling them Laser Swords because he can't handle that Alec Guineas thought of a better name. :)
+Nebogipfel I don't get it. Did the actor come up with the name '' Lightsaber '' ?

If you could have world peace or be a Jedi, what color lightsaber would you have?
Yellow
Orange
I would have blue, red, yellow, and, the darksaber why because I'm grevious hahahahahahahah (cough)
I would probably have Luke Skywalker Return of the Jedi Lightsaber
JXEditor I would have either a blue or green one.
Mainly just because of Luke's green lightsaber, and Anakin's blue lightsaber.

Totally agree with you, its really important to get passionate talented people, not those who are only looking to be attached to a payday.
General Grievous’ pistol looks friggin cool. Shame he honestly doesn’t use it more often.
I love how George Lucas calls it a "laser sword" lol
