Plot holes in the SW saga

i know that. what i meant is, he could have told him something else, something less dramatic. this way he stirred a feeling of anger in Luke against darth vader and we know that anger leads to hate, hate leads to the dark side...

why not tell him that his father disappeared while he was looking for vader? would have worked too...

Something I don't understand: Why does ObiWan tell Luke that Vader killed his father? I mean, this makes a feeling of revenge come up and Jedis shouldn't promote revenge. He could just have said that his father was killed during a battle against the Empire or sth like that.

I know Lucas probably hadn't thought of the vader=anakin stuff at that point, but it kinda bothers me. Jedis are not as noble as they want you to believe they are...

Evil Empire...

ric, your idealism is really cute.
i hope it to be like that someday too, but it's not probable. it has nothing to do with violence on screen etc, it's just human nature. even cave men were fighting each other and, as far as i know, they didn't have TV...

i liked the oreo movie. that's what i've always thought. the US would be so much better off if they'd spend more money on education. but i can't judge on that. never been there.

Last line of episode 3?

I think the fact that seeing the PT first would ruin the experience of OT, as most of you said, shows that the PT is not as good as it should have been. It is only interesting as an afterthought to see how the situation at the start of ANH came to be. And that does not justify three movies. Maybe it would have been better if GL had done ep 7, 8 and 9. at least they would be relevant. But it could also have been worse. It's even more upsetting when the characters you know and love are ruined. At least in the PT there are mostly new characters, excepting Anakin, Obi and the Emperor.

hey, maybe we should get that machine from "eternal sunshine" to get the memories of SW wiped out to see how it feels like to wath them 'in order'........no, i take it back, it's not worth it...
