That One Lightsaber

This video tells the story of a family through one object that is passed down from one generation to the next. So far it’s been only two generations, Anakin Skywalker and Luke Skywalker, who owned this particular lightsaber, but in the coming Star Wars movies we will learn who the next rightful owner will be. My bets are not on Kylo Ren, although he believes he is entitled to it.

That part about “Your father wanted you to have it when you’re old enough” was pure BS, but it was easier than Obi-Wan explaining how many people had been killed by that weapon. Christopher Sherwood compiled clips from a half-dozen Star Wars films to tell the story of Luke’s strangely color-changing lightsaber. -via Buzzfeed

I was annoyed that, after all the build-up toward Luke's lightsaber as some holy relic, the big reveal was someone flicking it on like a flashlight. "Yep, it works." and then putting it away. TFA was better than any of the prequels, and better than RotJ, but it missed out in so many ways...
