actually obi wan didn't lie about being trained by yoda, because thats how it starts at a youngling yoda is ur main teacher then eventually you become a padawan learner under a jedi. thats why qui gon says he would train anakin because yoda would have been the one to start his training, but because the council was against it they let obi train him instead.

I thought about that, but wonder if she's referring to Padme or her adopted mother? Did Leia ever know that she was adopted?
This has been debated more than anything else on here other than Sidious/Yoda. I started off insisting that she was talking about Bail Organa's wife, but after much evidence and research, it's clear she is talking about Padme. Few will argue this now, especially since it is backed up by the official site (in the data bank entry under Leia Organa).
Some insist it is a plot hole and Lucas messed up, but many say it is not, and they're right! (lol) In ROTJ, Leia says she remembers only images and feelings about her mother, she never says memories. She never says she remembers going to the zoo with her mom or getting Burger King one day or anything. She is able to sense these images and feelings through the force, much the same way Luke senses images and feelings of his friends at city in the clouds when he is on Dagobah. Why Luke does not recall these things is uncertain, though there are some ideas, namely the fact that he was raised in a home which was very negative to the force, and in which the idea of Jedi and the force was not allowed. Leia was raised by Bail Organa, someone who held strong faith and belief in the Jedi, so Leia was probably more likely to be accepting of the force and open to it's influenece at young ages when her memories (of the images/feelings) were formed.
he could have said, "this was your fathers... you should have it."
there was no need to add shit to it...
he must have been really boared in that cave...

"general Kenobi, you fought for my father in Clone wars"

did he work directly for bail organna?
"I don't remember ever owning a droid"
-obi wan [ANH]
uh... R4?
"I haven't gone by the name of Obi-Wan since all before you were born" -obi wan [ANH]
(and maybe just after)
"this place looks familiar"
-Luke on Dagobah [ESB]
why would it?
"when i met your father he was already the best pilot in the galaxy, i was amazed at how well the force flowed through him" Obi wan [ROTJ]
firstly he was good at pod racing... the SW equivelant of go cart racing.
and why was he suprised by how well the force flowed through him when qui gons blood sample test showed a massive amount of midchlorians in his system that dictacted he would be more poweful than yoda...
-------------
most of those are minor, but there are more...
way too much...
i like ROTS, but there was asome definate laziness in a trilogy that had 19years of preperation behind it...

Eh I think your looking at some of these the wrong way....
It was General Kenobi you 'served' my father in the clone wars. This could have taken place in between episodes 2 and 3 for all we know.
Don't remember ever owning a droid.....the jedi arent supposed to have possessions; thats attachments; which is against the code- pretty much all they have are their clothes and lightsaber, R4 was obi wans aid in battle i dont think he owned him.
"I haven't gone by the name of Obi-Wan since all before you were born" -obi wan [ANH]"
this one doesnt have much weight seeing as luke was born at the end of the movie and theres the big time gap
"this place looks familiar"
-Luke on Dagobah [ESB]
I think Luke was sensing Yoda with the force
Anakin was the only human able to podrace and eventually he blew up the droid control ship-- pretty darn good if ya ask me.
it was an accident...
he was ment to wait in the ship but accidentally set off the auto lauch sequence...
then he CRASHED into the droid controll ships hanger bay...
where for some stupid reason the main reactor was kept...
that is hardly befiting the title of best pilot in the galaxy...
especially compared to the fact that he was also shot out of orbit by han solo...
