But any true jedi™ can do alright with a standard lightsaber.

The way it's manufactured, the opponent's light saber would cut the cross guard off before it stopped it because the cross guard is generated independently from the main light saber out of its own section of the hilt.  The opponent's light saber would rack down the length of this light saber and slice right through the center part of the hilt that's generating the cross guard.

See what I'm talking about?

And I agree, a true Jedi wouldn't need the light saber cross guard.  Perhaps, though, this can be chalked up to this villain being a Sith and not a true Jedi.

No, you're right.  If he thinks he needs the stupid guards he's just a sithy.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

What? The final teaser for JJ Abram's bastardization of George Lucas' bastardization of the Arthurian legend is out for over a day and not a single panting, breathless, post of being able to die happy?

It looks good.

I hope it lives up to expectations and the hype.

This! Oh, so much this!

I don't trust Disney not to completely fuck it up. Not that it would take much after Lucas took his swings (I, II, and III).

How demeaning is it for the Jewish people like JJ and Lawrence Kasdan who busted their asses working on this film to succumb to writing this in the trailer  Sad :

I mean to succumb to those people that call them the "Christ-killers"! Can you imagine the fury and shock and not to mention abomination if they wrote this instead 4 Horsemen :

Anybody wanna take bet on the body count on the day the movie comes out? I'm calling it at at least two theaters. Maybe 5 deaths.

On a related note, I can't wait for it to come out on Movies on Demand!
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue
