I’m not sure Anakin was BORN on Tatooine. Grew up, for sure but didn’t Shmi move to Tatooine after Anakin’s birth? (again, I’m not sure this is the case)

So, Darth Vader actually WANTS Luke, Leia and Han to survive, and thats why he uses the Force to misalign the sights on every stormtrooper´s blaster…  
Neat explanation, Terminus est!

Anakin and Padme secretly move in together.

But Padme’s high maintenance lifestyle, free spending, constant badmouthing of Anakin’s Jedi friends and nonstop bitching drives him to the Dark Side.

How many times does it have to be said-almost ALL protocol droids look alike! He’s a C3PO, a very very common model. You see one in the opening scene of _A New Hope_ and in Cloud City in _The Empire Strikes Back_.

Now then, Episode III? Cool costumes. And naked Obi Wan.
