A Disney Executive Showed a ‘Real Lightsaber’ at SXSW
ICYMI: A Disney executive showed off one of the perks of his job at SXSW!
Disney parks exec. Josh D’Amaro took the stage at SXSW in Austin and activated a real working lightsaber! Now it didn’t cut through metal or do any of that REALLY cool stuff, but he pushed a button and the light blade appeared out of nowhere. See in the video below.
No word on whether or not these will actually be available for sale to the public, but D’Amaro said that they will be used as part of the interactive Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser experience at Walt Disney World in Florida.
Andy's Top 5 Star Wars Songs
Duel of The Fates
It doesn’t get much better than this one in terms of Star Wars tunes. I listen to this one right before I go for a jog. Sure my jog doesn’t necessarily warrant such an epic sound… but even the slightest amount of jogging is so difficult for me, this is appropriate
The Imperial March
The theme song for the bad guys. Had to add this to the list. This is also the song that’s in my head when I’m in line to get fast food.
Yoda's Theme
This one is great, and it’s the song that’s in my head after a day where my diet actually goes well.
Anakin VS Obi-Wan
This one is great… and this appropriately captures the emotion of a day where I know I have to clean my bathroom.
The Emperor
This is the Emperor’s theme. So evil it’s the song that’s in my head when I clean my cat’s litter box.
