Ben served Bail during the Clone Wars, he was owens brother and took Leia to live on alderaan, and then luke to tatooine.
it also makes reference very vaguely to Leia's real mother possibly being around during her early childhood.
there is a scene on Dagobah where Kenobi takes personal reponsibility for anakin's fall, via his ghost self. He never seems to take repponsibility in the movie, in fact he completely glosses over the fact that both he and yoda lied to Luke, had him trained and raised to believe he was to be the one to kill his fathers killer, not his own father.
That his father was a hero, a champion of justice and a good man and friend, not a butcher of younglings and the killer of his own wife.
Both Boba Fett and Han Solo were to appear in the original third prequel. Fett with the mandalorian hunters helped vader track down and destroy the jedi knights, and Han Solo would have been nothing more than a boy, or orphen on Corellia. Not like in the earlier revenge of the Sith drafts where he was raised as a surrogate brother to Chewbacca, and chewies family as his only known family.
There are several points that i totally disregard in the prequels, though you guys know these are just movies and not real life i'm not such a dork that i lose sleep over the incontinuity between the two trilogies.
If i really gave a damn anymore like i did as a teenager where lucas was going to take the series i would say.
1. No damn Midiclorians or how ever it is spelt.
2. NO friggin Jango Fett
3.NO darth maul he was only created spur of the moment the only sith lords should be the emperor and vader.
4. no count dooku or draku
5. no demodians
6. no gungans and especially no jar jar binks
7. no starting with anakin as a little kid
8. no poop or fart jokes
9. everything as real as possible like the old movies no fake Cgi.
10. no special editions of the oot that competely alter characters or storylines like the 1997 and 2004.
11. he should have started with the sequel trilogy with Han, Luke and Leia and then went back to do the prequels, but that would have required him to return and not have a 22 year hiatus.
12. vader's wife dies much later during leia's early childhood, not dying in labor because of a broken heart. What a lame way to go out for a supposedly strong female character who was the inspiration for leia.
