The only living Jedi we see in Return is Luke who goes about dressed in black.

Old Anakin wearing robes could well have been Luke's interpretation of what would have happened if he'd been around and raised him on Tattoine.

The Jedi robes are intentionally made to look peasantry in the prequels to emphasize the Jedi being out of touch. When they ACTUALLY go on Tatooine though, as in both Episodes I and II, the difference is readily apparent.

>>63183435
>Why couldn't Sheev sense where Luke was
You're assuming he should be able to do something that is established nowhere in the franchise
>>
>>63183491
If Vader could detect Obi-Wan on the Death Star, Sheev could have gone from planet to planet looking for Vader's mutts.
>>
>>63183435
Cause the Force is not like professor Xavier sensing where mutants are anywhere at anytime. It's not a GPS locating device. From the movies you can basically sense somebody you spent a great deal of time with (Vader->Ben) or you are blood-related (Luke->Leia), or somebody is crazy strong in it (Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan->Anakin), or they are doing something crazy with the Force (Vader->Luke destroying Death Star) or some crazy traumatic shit is happening (Yoda->Anakin; Ben->Alderaan).

Only in EU can Force users sense every other Force users and pinpoint their locations. But, then again the way to measure the Force in EU was for Luke to put his hand on your forehead and see how far across the room will he be thrown across.

>>
>>63183688
Why? There's absolutely no reason for them to even assume the kids are alive or that Obi-Wan would take one of the kids there.
These guys had an empire to run not go on wild goose chases. Shit people were miffed when Vader wasted time looking for Luke around ESB when he actually had proof that the kid exists.

I think it's pretty clear Sheev knew Vader's kids would come out of the woodwork on their own accord anyway. He knew they would come to him.
>>
>>63183743
Because Sheev specifically planned for the destruction of every Jedi, there's no way he wouldn't want to tie up loose ends. You can't get much looser than someone who was close to Yoda and the son of your Sith apprentice.
And even with an empire to run they would have had to make rounds in person at some point to keep them afraid and in line, so not getting back to Tatooine in 20 years seems ridiculous to me.

It's not really something that bothers me, it certainly isn't a major issue with the narrative or anything, it just seems a bit odd.

>>63183872
This is likely, but it seems bizarre for someone who's usually in complete control of everything to leave something that major up to chance.

Tatooine is a shithole that's not even part of the Empire. For Vader that place is just bad memories and sand. For Palpatine it's nothing. There's thousands of planets in the galaxy, looking for Luke is like looking for a needle in a haystack the size of Yankee stadium.

Something I liked about Force Unleashed is that it basically gave you a pretty wide variety of robes and looks as if to go along with that Force users don't just have that one look (even though you were a Sith).

The Star Wars EU stuff that predated the prequels also had Jedi wearing all kinds of outfits, armor, robes, whatever before they all had the moisture farmer look.

>>63183205
RoTJ played with the idea that Luke was riding the fence and may ultimately end up on the dark side of the Force. I mean, he did motherfucking force choke some dudes at Jabba's palace. Not to mention that he wears a black offshoot of Obi-Wan's outfit from A New Hope, and uses a green lightsaber, a color outside the red/blue dichotomy we'd seen up until that point.

But yeah, the movie ultimately didn't do a great job of it. There wasn't much doubt that he was going to stay a babyface.
>>
>>63184235

Oddly enough the Plinkett reviews actually point this out, that the Emperor never really gave him much reason to join the Dark Side.
>>
>>63181766
moist
>>
>>63184275
Because the Emperor didn't have anything to offer him. Luke was fighting for a selfless cause, he wanted to end the Empire's tyranny, not keep some dumb slut alive.

You motherfuckers really are selective in your nitpicking. It's the same shit only black.

>>63184235
>uses a green lightsaber, a color outside the red/blue dichotomy we'd seen up until that point.

The only reason they did that was cause it looked better during the Sarlacc scene.
Other than that the whole will Luke go dark came out of nowhere, he had really no incentive to become evil. Shit Palpatine's plan boils down to
>become angry once
>???
>You are now evil forever

He didn't offer to spare his friends or anything.

The same goes for Luke's ideas about Vader being good on the inside. Based on fucking what, Luke? The fact that he tried to kill you and your friends for the past 2 movies?

Layers form an insulation that maintains the inner temperatures against external, like a vacuum flask.

Mid layer looks linen while base is cotton, which is fine. Only the outer layer is wool, which is indeed a bit much.
Ben not wearing white is also pretty good, since it won't be reflecting UV at his exposed face and his inner layers most likely wouldn't be bouncing his IR back into his body.

This in my opinion was a big missed opportunity for the prequels. Owen should have been more of a character. He should have clashed with Obi-Wan and Anakin over going to join the Clone Wars on some damned fool idealistic crusade.
He should have been there from the beginning, and maybe have blamed Anakin for the death of their mother because he went off to fight a war while Owen was a simple farmer who couldn't do anything.

Instead he's just a brief exposition dump and there is no emotional attachment to him. Seems like a big waste since aside from Obi-Wan and Vader he's the only carryover from the OT in the prequels. He should have been a bridge.

The only way I would accept Luke not being a good guy in The Force Awakens if they moved away from the whole good/evil dichotomy and went for a more of a grey approach to morality but I don't see that happening. The closest thing Star Wars ever came to that was with the whole "good is a point of view" but that was so fucking stupid and ultimately just Palpatine tricking Anikan into joining him.
