Did any of the EU authors invent a reverse lightsaber where the blade is metal but the handle is made out of lasers? If not, dibs

If I was one of those guys that decided what Star Wars things were canon I'd have made it so that only the Star Wars Holiday Special counted. That and the one where the kids crash land on the Ewok planet and fight a spider thing.

Sombrerotron posted:What always annoys me about cortosis is that my first exposure to it was Zahn's Vision of the Future, and there's it's described not only as a rare material, but as one that - as dog buttz says - actually causes lightsabers to shut down upon contact. Even so, the material gets damaged by the brief touch of the blade before it disappears; it's not actually lightsaber-proof or even particularly resistant. Yet in everything else I've encountered where cortosis is used, it's just some kind of super-hard substance that lightsabers either can't cut through at all, or at least not without great difficulty. This inconsistency makes me an upset nerd !! i literally thought it only existed because KOTOR needed a melee weapons tier below 'lightsaber'

Some people are mad there's a black Stormtrooper in the episode VII trailer because all the Empire soldiers were British and apparently there is no such thing as a black British guy.

I don't really like it going three ways, though. I want it to be more anime-y, so you'd have a single, wide blade coming out that was about 12-inches wide, an inch thick, and 5 feet long. Also, him refusing to accept defeat because his heart won't allow it... PatTwo posted:Were there any goons or goony-like poo poo before Star Wars? I feel like Star Wars started all the problems the Internet eventually became known for. Maybe those Edisonades that people wrote about Thomas Edison being a superscience adventuring hero?

also the stormtroopers in the OT were mostly (all?) americans and not british, and not everybody had the same voice

And then explaining that he hates Han Solo more than anyone else in the whole galaxy because he's a smuggler who steals things. Unlike every other smuggler apparently. And for Fett to be saying this? The guy who was so notorious that Vader had to specifically tell him NOT to disintegrate his targets and actually try to capture them?
