I'm surprised we didn't see a 10 year old Han Solo winning a bet for the millenium falcon against a ten year old Lando in episode 3.

I could feel that scene coming, and I swore before Episode III came out if there was any sign of Han Solo in the prequels, I was going to leave the theater, go home, sell everything I have having to do with the prequels, and pretend they didn't exist, much like many of you have done without that motivation.

At first I thought all the nods towards the OT were cute and clever, but the more I thought about it and the more it happened, I began to realize what they were: pandering to the OT fans. I mean, the characters at points almost looked into the camera and winked after some of them. The one that comes to mind immediately is Obi-Wan's comment in Episode II of "Why do I feel like you're going to be the death of me?" HAHA, its funny because Anakin eventually IS the death of him. But wait... If we watch the movies in numerical order as Lucas obviously wants us to do, no one will get that. Instead of being an off-hand reference to things we already know, it becomes a "spooky" prophecy that echoes in the back of our minds as Vader strikes Obi-Wan down.
