I say TPM. They look a little too bright shiny on the digital cameras used in AOTC and ROTS

ROTS. They look especially amazing in the battle with Grievous on Utapau.

I think The Empire Strikes Back because of how visibly the saber blades 'pulse' as it makes them look like something that will take your hand off if they hit you. I do like the point that Mace's saber has in RotS though.

The cameras have nothing to do with it.

Anyway, I say Empire.

Definitely agreed. They look more sword like and less like flashes of light as in AOTC and ROTS. I've always thought that the lightsabers in AOTC and ROTS were flashy and "dragged" the light with them as they went.

ESB. Just because they were so awesome against the relative blacks and blues of the carbon freezing facility. In RotS the pointy tips annoyed me.

ROTS. I personally like how they drag the light. It shows how fast they are moving, because its only really visible during Anain vs OWK
