PT references in TFA

  • Tekka mentions “balance in the Force”
  • Kylo Ren mentions clone army (though the concept of warring clones dates back to the original film)
  • Maz mentions “the Sith” (though the word has been around SW lore since the 70s)
  • Super debatable, but Kylo Ren’s hairstyle could be purposefully reminiscent of ROTS Anakin
  • Ewan McGregor Obi-Wan voice cameo

PT references in RO

  • Turbo tank (though this was an ESB concept)
  • Jimmy Smitts as Bail Organa (thought the character has of course existed since the original)
  • Genevieve O’Reilly as Mon Mothma (though the character is of course in ROTJ, and the actress played her in deleted scenes, not the actual film)
  • Flashback on Coruscant (though the planet existed pre-PT)
  • Vader’s castle on Mustafar (though this was also an ESB concept)

Bottom line, if you think one has more than the other (or that they are significant in either), you’re wrong.
