Rogue One: A Star Wars Story
Darth Vaderdecimates the Rebel Alliance with a blue lightsaber in a fan - madeRogue One : A Star Wars Storyvideo . Released in 2016,Rogue Onesurprised a mountain of fans by bring back Lord Vader for a full-grown action - compact finale showing the infamous villain melt down rearing over a ship full of hapless Johnny .
That stopping point of path helped tieRogue Onedirectly back to the originalStar Warsby depicting the consequence right before that moving-picture show ’s own noted opening scene where Vader ’s Star Destroyer overtake Princess Leia ’s ship the Tantive IV , promptingC-3PO and R2 - D2to escape to the surface of Tatooine ( thus kicking off the original trilogy ’s plot ) . Many fan were indeed wind up by theRogue Onemoment when Vader ’s iconic red lightsaber appears in the darkness , heralding the arriver of the powerful Sith Lord . The carnage that then ensued definitely give the film a shocking and memorable coda , even though it did n’t inevitably accommodate tonally with the comparatively more subdued opening moments ofStar Wars .

A YouTube substance abuser namedYusi - D Jordanhas now put a raw twist on the Darth Vader action view from the oddment ofRogue Oneby giving Vader a blue lightsaber in place of his traditional red one , and for added fun Vader also get a green lightsaber in the same snip . See the television in the space below :
Vader of course did maintain a blue lightsaber in his previous animation asAnakin Skywalker , as was depicted in theStar Warsprequels . Anakin ’s son Luke would eventually total into possession of his puritanical lightsaber but would fall behind it at the flood tide ofThe Empire Strikes Back , going on to build his own green lightsaber inReturn of the Jediand using it to ultimately get the better of Vader . These connexion toStar Warslore indeed give Yusi - D - Jordan ’s video a little more lick , though the cartridge clip certainly has enough novelty value on its own , particularly forStar Warsfans who get a kick out of seeing alternating versions of scenes .
Star Warshistory obviously has seen lightsabers of many different colors , from Mace Windu ’s notable purple model to the white lightsabers used byAhsoka Tanoto the menacing darksaber now owned by Moff Gideon onThe Mandalorian . But of all lightsabers Vader ’s Marxist and Luke ’s blue stay on the most iconic , and it ’s in spades fun and interesting to see Vader slice up rebels using the sabre he manage as a young Jedi and ultimately handed off to his son ( with a short assist from his honest-to-goodness mentor Obi - Wan Kenobi of course ) . Whether the blue lightsaber really improves the middling controversial Vader prospect fromRogue One : A Star Wars Storyis of course a matter of notion , but it certainly does n’t detract from the undeniably scarey moment when the weapon light up in the dark , countenance the audience sleep with that unfit things are about to happen .
