[quote]This one from the official DVD looks like the blades are intertwined.

Also, I think some are getting "behind" confused. Some are thinking of it in relation to the picture: Vader's sword is behind Luke's in the picture (Luke's is closest to us). Other's are thinking in relation to the events depicted in the pic: Vader's sword is in front of Luke's and he is blocking it from hitting the Emperor (Vader's is closest to the Emperor).

We're all on the same page, just some of us are thinking objectively and others subjectively what "behind" means.[/quote]

First of all, if the picture shows them as "intertwined", then how can one be in front of or behind the other?

Secondly, the picture shows, at the very least, the core of the red saber (Vader) blocking the green saber (Luke), which means that Luke's is behind Vader's, and is closer to Palps - which means it is on the wrong side. This is what I've been saying all along.
