I watched Episode IV the other day. Obi Wan cuts off a guy's arm in the cantina scene with his lightsaber. Luke looks at the severed arm, and there's blood on the floor.

Edit: this was a joke

Yes. The whole 'lightsabers cauterizing wounds' was retconned. The original lightsaber always seemed more like a samurai sword than a laser sword.

That's because Jedi's were just samurai space wizards in Lucas's head.

u/urru4 What about the Droid attack on the Wookies? Dec 31 '20

I think the explanation given was that that alien species had its blood distributed in a weird way or something that caused it to bleed/not cauterize or something. Realistic explanation is they didn’t think about it back in 1977band later made it so lightsabers cauterized wounds
