I really, really don't think that's the case. No offense, but it just sounds a little silly to me to say that the creator of a universe doesn't know his own universe well.[/q

I agree....it does sound silly as all hell....but it's true. There more than a few examples in the PT in relation to the OT.

One quick example...

In the OT, it seems to me that Obi-Wan really believed in Anakin when he first met him...."When I first met your father, I was amazed at how strongly the Force flowed through him. I took it upon myself to train him as a Jedi."

Interpretation be damned.....that's pretty straightforward there. Obi-Wan met Anakin, was impressed and trained him.

In the PT, Obi-Wan didn't seem to impressed by Anakin. He was against having him trained, for crying out loud.

For me, that definitely calls into question, Lucas' familiarity with his own material.

More tomorrow...I gotta run.
