  1. Not that people would have cared what it was called if they hadn’t have known any differently, but what on earth is lazer – light amplification through the zapping of electromagnetic radiation?

  2. Isn’t “laser sword” mentioned in one of the films or spin offs, sure I remember it. Probably one of the six million Easter egg references they feel the need to include to satisfy elitist Star Wars fans 🤣
