Why does sparks shoot out of Luke’s hand when Vader slices it off?

they couldn't even afford color wavelengths on the set. it was like... you come to work and everything is black and white. you're grateful to walk down the street to the mcdonald's for lunch because at least there are colors outside.

The bigger question is why his lightsaber deactivates as it flies away. We know that you don't have to hold a button down for it to stay on.

>Not that guy, but there were over three hundred authorized Star Wars books across many authors published since the late seventies that were done with a very large amount of continuity. Almost every major character's back story was fleshed out before the 90's, and was done so in a well laid out, consistent manner, even to the point of authors referencing other authors or events, and characters' storylines intersecting.
>You are undoubtedly too young to remember everything that went with it. There were a few spin-offs in the form of various TV movies (I barely remember the Ewok one), cartoons, comic books, hell, even hard-cover non-fiction stuff like Ralph McQuarrie's work.
>ALMOST ALL OF IT WAS CANON RIGHT UP UNTIL IT WAS SOLD TO DISNEY WHO IMMEDIATELY HAND-WAVED DECADES OF WORK AND SAID IT WAS NO LONGER CANON.
>So... yeah, I can understand how that guy might decide to disregard the most recent garbage, especially since there were some very good novels that would have made excellent movies.
True.

This can't be cause it's intact in episode 7.

it was the 80's. Everything sparked in the 80's.

That's a different lightsaber. Luke lost the one Obi gave him and constructed his own.

Clearly one is Annakin's construction and the other is Luke's
