Star Wars Episode 7

[sdp]

Well that isn't anything new, also the name "Ben Kenobi" wasn't a particularly great choice. Do they ever mention Anakin's last name being Skywalker in the original trilogy? Of course these things don't make sense because Darth Vader and Luke's father were meant to be two different people until ESB was written. Tattoine was supposed to be this rebel planet that not many people cared about and only had some imperial presence there. In fact that isn't broken by the prequels too much either, mostly the EU or "Legends" were a bunch of things kept happening in tattoine.

I can somehow overlook it though, technically Vader and the Emperor thought Padme had died and so had the kid so they weren't actively looking for him and the Universe is a huge place to randomly find THE Kenobi they're looking for. I do admit keeping his last name as Skywalker is petty stupid since Anakin was a well known general which is why I asked if Vader is ever called a Skywalker.

To me the biggest problem and thing that bothers me from Star Wars are the relatively short time between ROTS and ANH. It just doesn't match with what happened, especially since the same amount of time later in the new movie and things haven't changed that much since the OT.
