Summary

In an interview with @ScreenRant Dave Filoni explains the orange lightsabers in Ahsoka that Baylan and Shin have. Why is it orange? Mace Windu had a purple one which was the balance between blue and red, light and dark. Could this be the balance between light and dark as well, except teetering more into the dark side?

I like these legends' colors coming into canon again.

0:00.0	Hey guys, how's it going? Welcome back to another Star Wars theory podcast.
0:08.5	Hey guys, it seems we have some clairvoyance on the orange lightsabers that Dave
0:14.5	Floney created from Dave Floney himself. And this was posted on my post on Twitter,
0:20.4	which you guys might want to go and see the video. It's at real SW theory. And here's
0:25.9	the post from Lucas D.P.F. and this actually comes from TikTok. And I believe it's from
0:30.7	screen rant. So let's go ahead and check it out and see what Dave has to say.
0:34.4	I made it a little bit more. I made it a little bit more orange. It's really good. I
0:38.2	get first person to catch that. That was very intentional. I didn't make sure like everyone
0:42.4	caught that on the internet. They were like, is that orange? And why is the core not white?
0:46.9	I'm like just a stark red. I remember as a kid, the Vader's lights, they were not fluctuated
0:52.4	from visual effects, the visual effects being a little bit more orange. I didn't want to go
0:56.1	like straight up orange, but it's identifying a little. So 100% like in the original trilogy
1:01.0	before they created the remastered version. I remember in the 90s when I saw it on VHS.
1:06.7	Vader's lights, it was like flickering and a lot of the times it was kind of orange. Sometimes
1:10.6	it was really light red, almost like a pink. And a lot of the promotional posters, it was
1:16.5	actually orange. Yeah. So I guess you know, Dave being a student of the old stuff and you know,
1:21.4	trained by George, of course, he's going to be like, oh, maybe that's cool, but maybe there's
1:24.5	a little bit more to it. A little bit of something, maybe to kids that they might not straight up be
1:30.1	what you think they wait, what? Orange, but it's identifying a little bit of the visual effects being
1:36.2	a little bit more orange. I didn't want to go like straight up orange, but it's identifying a
1:41.0	little bit of something, maybe to kids that they might not straight up be what you think they are
1:46.7	in the beginning. It's a little less being a little bit more orange. Not what they want to be
