Since everyone is making Star Wars threads I thought Id make one. The question is referring to Mace Windu (coolest Jedi ever!!!!) and the color of his saber.

Which one of you fanatic knows why? Cause I sure dont.

Well, having seen the "making of" stuff on the DVD's, I can confirm why it is that Mace Windu is the only Jedi with a purple lightsaber.

Samuel L Jackson wanted one Simple as that.

That's pretty funny that he wanted his lightsaber to be purple.

If I remember correctly, he wanted one cause he said it was "badass". I'd tell you exactly what he said, but I can't be bothered finding the DVD right now to watch it

He wanted one because purple is badass. Simple as that.

Red is quite cool too. If you have a Dual-saber.

I'm not even a Star Wars fan and I can tell you the real answer. In an interview I heard on the TV Guide channel a year or so back (I have a poor sense of time, could've been longer), he said that everybody's lightsaber was the same color, and he'd be involved in a lot of grand-scale battles, so it'd be easy for the moviegoers to lose him. He wanted them to give his lightsaber a unique color, so he'd stand out and be easy to spot amongst the masses. Purple is an easier to recognize and bolder color compared to the average lightsaber.

What ever the reason was...can we all agree that...

MACE WINDU IS THE GREATEST JEDI EVER?!?!

edit--oh since we are already on the subject of color. I was watchin G4 a while ago and they were showing old star wars games. This one game i think it was called Jedi Knight had some live-action cut scenes, they were lame as hell and the "Jedi" in them was some middle aged balding guy (looked more like a loser fan than anything) Anyways his saber was yellow, and i thought wow thats pretty cool too bad dudes a douche. so did he have a yellow one just cause he wanted it too?

The games have a lot less strict of license, and can have things contradictory to canon. Like in KotOR, you can have green, yellow, purple, orange, blue, and cyan colored blades.

I see, I gave up on that game before I could make my own Saber. It was just down right boring to me.

If I ever get on the star wars set, I'd demand a lightaxe. and it'd be the axe-iest of all axes. and pwn purple lightsabers. because axes > sabres.

Well, since, according to some sources, vibro blades are the forrunners to light sabers, and vibro axes existl, then, eh...

No, a light axe would simply suck, sorry.
