Do you feel like this: pre-1977 to 1983 is the real Star Wars Canon

Now, can someone explain the Ben/Owen thing? Haha. I know they were brothers up until the SEs, right? And so in Episode II, Beru is just some little girl that can be seen playing outside Padme's house in a deleted scene, right? Then she grew up and married this Owen fella, who may or may not have any extra significance to the families/characters at all?

And good gravy, why is it that everyone ages so much and Padme seems to have barely aged? Heh.

Yes, the prequels confuse me.

 

Actually, the two girls playing outside Padmé's house are Ryoo and Pooja. Beru was also in AotC, as you may recall. Yes, Obi-Wan and Owen Lars are no longer brothers, but he DID have a brother named Owen, according to the Jedi Apprentice series.


Ah, I thought she said Beru. Wouldn't have surprised me. I don't care to look up stuff from the prequels much, but that interested me last time I watched AotC. Plus, the Owen thing always intrigued me. I wonder who's idea it was to say he has a brother named Owen in the Jedi Apprentice series? I could see an author doing that to stick it to LFL for messing around with established history so much. Of course, they let him keep that story element, so...? Probably just another throwaway thing that they like to do.
