Laser sword? (Spoilers)


Did Luke actually refer to a lightsaber as a laser sword? WTF?! Was it the intent of all involved in this movie to just piss on the franchise? Even Hamill couldn’t get such a simple detail right?

It's not Hammil's fault. He was just following the script.

Besides, I remember that George Lucas himself used the term "laser sword" in interviews.

And the term "laser sword" was used in the TPM; in fact, I don't think the term "light saber" was ever actually spoken in dialog in that movie (though that's not the most ringing endorsement, I know).
