That should have raised a non-digitally removed eyebrow.

Haha, nice reference! The eyebrow removal thing bugged me. I mean, I've singed off my arm hair on the grill, and it grows back...eyebrows and body hair are persistant buggers! And they went to the trouble of removing the eyebrows, but not giving him the stupid scar from the prequels (the scar that they shouldn't have given him anyway, considering that ROTJ Vader didn't have it)? Ugh. Anyway, back on topic...

I think Tatooine SHOULD make an appearance, but I agree that it should only show up in the first establishing movie, and then only briefly, for the meet-up sequence. The fact that it's in the middle of nowhere makes it a good hiding spot; maybe the evil clones had set up a secret base there during the Clone Wars, and Obi-Wan was checking it out when he came across Anakin. As for hiding Luke there, even though his father is from that world...well, some people say that the best hiding spot is the most obvious place to look.

I like the idea of Luke and Leia's mom being from Alderaan! Seems kind of obvious now that I think about it, especially since Naboo has a lot of similarities to Alderaan (so why did they bother creating Naboo anyway when they could have just used Alderaan?).
