Danes feel Obama is greater than Jesus
Quote:hi,
I think the lie was George Lucas' claim that he had the whole nine part series worked out. I suspect he had a pretty good idea of the first part (episode 4), a vague notion of the first trilogy, and a sorta hunch that he could milk it for nine. Beyond that, I suspect that he was winging it. Darth didn't become Luke's father, I'm guessing, till episode 5 needed something to bolster the story. Otherwise, it would have been just a redo of 4 with a travelogue of a swamp thrown in for comic effect. If disagree you do, glad to debate I am.:)

I'm not sure myself. I do think, however, that your presumption would only support my position that the "Lie" was created as an effect of the serialization of the IP and not created as a means of character development. In the context of the story which has been told, and is explicit, Obi-Wan is a liar and the "Point of View" argument (although masquerading as wisdom) should be viewed as the BS that it is. One could argue that the tragedy he lived through with Anakin broke his faith in people and thus he was less willing to trust in Luke the second time around. This would be an interesting character arc if it was at all explored in any of the fiction, but alas it is not and trying to overlay it onto the story as it was told is reaching at best.
