maybe too radical, and i dont know why or how this could be done, but maybe somehow leia could have it, and she could give it to luke to where, repeating anakin's line from TPM 'it will bring you luck' (i think he says that.:P)

 

i am assuming that ROTS:R wont have padme dying, to fit in with her surviving until leia is young enough to remember her, and thus perhaps give it to her.

Adywan isn't gonna go to that kind of trouble for a necklace. Plus, Leia is the daughter of a great jedi. She may think she remembers her mother were in turn she actually has felt her mother. The jedi are hard to understand in that sense. But life finds a way in the star wars universe to continue. Another thing keeping padme alive would be damn near impossible. It would tear the saga apart. and thus be a great continuity error which i hear ady doesn't like continuity errors.

 

 

i didnt mean keeping padme alive for the OT, but just not killing her off in ROTS, surely leia saying she remembered her mother as a child, yet somehow dying a few minutes after she was born is a continuity error, as you said ady doesn't like continuity errors. why doesnt luke remember her if its felt through the force? that all sounds a bit like an excuse really.

the necklace i thought was just an interesting conversation topic. i should think that the ROTJ should reference some PT elements (depending on what ady does with the PT) as it should wrap things up a bit more.

 

Well, it's not all bad, if Leia had said something like "I remember her and I played together when I was 3." or something similar it would have been an ironclad plot hole, but being the way Leia says it. "Just images really....feelings." it can work in the context of the SW Universe, but it would not work here on Earth in real life. We are not force sensitive, Leia is. Why can't Luke remember? It's like saying why someone can remember something an another at the same event cannot. Leia seems more connected to her mother, and Luke more to his father.

Thank you for explaining my point. Leia was raised with knowledge of her mother too.
