Star Wars: The Force Awakens - 8 Biggest Reveals From Force Friday
2. What Kylo Ren's Lightsaber Sounds Like
While pretty much everything seen of The Force Awakens has been met with extremely positive response, there was one thing that caused quite a bit of controversy and division: Kylo Ren's cross-bladed lightsaber. It looks very roughly made, and quite an angry blade, which all fits in with the notion of Ren not actually being a Sith Lord, and now thanks to the toy reveal we can hear what it sounds like as well. It's certainly in keeping with its appearance, as the traditional low buzz and hum of most lightsabers is replaced with something more akin to an angry growl. For those who weren't a fan of Abrams messing with the original lightsaber design, this is probably going to be equally unpopular, but for those who do appreciate the look of the 'broadsaber' it's another cool and interesting element of it.
NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far.
A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
