Instead I think we might have another Disney movie. "Cool" to see. Din't you see the stupid pose the bad guy makes when he ignites his weird lightsaber? like he has to make an effort to hold it? That theatricality is what is "cool" today, even if it has nothing to do with SW! (who imagines Vader being phisycally disturbe by an asset like a lightsaber?)
I love how matter-of-fact Obi-Wan and Vader are in Star Wars when they ready their swords. I mean, yeah, it was the easiest way to go about doing the effect, but it works with the storytelling and all that.
