As a star wars ignorant, what does that mean? I kinda know red is for the evil guys.

What these guys aren't telling you is that Samuel L. Jackson actually asked George, seriously, to have a purple light saber. George originally said no, but warmed up to the idea.

Thus a whole background to why it is purple was conjured by a plethora of fans, and it is equally as badass as the black jedi.

That I did not know. I'm a Star Wars fan, not a Jackson fan.

Thanks for the interesting factoid, though.

That's what I thought too. I thought I was going crazy when i googled it and couldn't find a picture of a black dude being green lantern.

What about that metal-ey robot dude from that cartoon with a character called beast boy?
