return jedi;

I have a friend from India that has been living in the US for several years now, but has never seen any of the Star Wars films before.  I finally convinced him to come over and watch them at my apartment, at a rate of about one a week.  While watching Return of the Jedi last night, he asked me a question too funny to keep to myself.

In the scene where Luke and Darth Vader enter the Emperor's throne room on the second Death Star, my friend turns to me and asks, "How is Luke going to fight the emperor without his wand?".  The "wand" he was referring to was Luke's lightsaber that was confiscated from him when he turned himself in.  I started laughing of course, and then said the first thing that came to mind: "Hey, this isn't Harry Potter you know!".

Hope you get a good laugh out of this like I did.

Wand? How old is your friend? Did he grow up in a cave?

Hi, After reading this amusing post I thought you may like to know that a relation of mine worked on the original films and has the "wand" you are talking about! My eight year old son who is a fan of the films (and of my relation) was sooo excited when he saw it but didn't understand why they wouldn't let him play with it!
