Originally posted by: zombie84Yoda instructed Obi Wan. We dont see Obi Wan as Yoda's padawan but he does indeed instruct him, as he claims in ESB. Not a big deal. I think the OT has much bigger holes than this. "Certain point of view" ring a bell? At least we thankfully never had one that bad in the PT.
I think that's the thing about it. Obi Wan effectively lies to Luke about his father and Vader and all that. Why? Because he was hiding the truth from Luke. It was important and that he hid it was important. Wheras who trained or instructed Obi Wan isn't really important.
And, no, I don't think Obi Wan should have wrote Luke a book out on the frozen wastes, but he could have said less. "...there you will learn from Yoda, the Jedi master."
But that would necessitate altering the original trilogy some more which I hate because it's like playing Battleship with someone who keeps moving their ships around. The younglings thing doesn't wash with me, really. But then, I dislike most of the things about the jedi as depicted in the prequels, like how they all dress like dessert hermits and stuff.
