To me, Mos Eisley has to play some kind of role in it.  In ANH Ben says "Mos Eisley space port.  You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy." and "Most of the best freighter pilots can be found here."  But it was also established that Ben couldn't get there on his ow.  He needed Luke to take him there in his speeder.  And once he arrived on Tatooine, he never left, so how did he know that you could find "the best freighter pilots" at the cantina? To me the only way he would know what Mos Eisley and the cantina was like in that amount of detail would be that he had been there years before.   Also, completely unrelated: I've been thinking about making Anakin's ship the Millenium Falcon.  Although, I'm not sure if that would be too "putting in references just because I can-ish."  In ANH Han says "You've never heard of the Millenium Falcon."  and it always seemed kind of tongue and cheek to me the way Ben says "Should I have?"  I don't know, I think it would be kind of cool.  What do you all think?
