X R Kun Posted May 10, 2002 Share Posted May 10, 2002 Ive first read that Owen Lars was Obi Wan's brother and was left to protect luke's identity . Then i read up on ep2 and guess wat? Owen Lars' father actually married shmi skywalker , mother of anakin . So , that makes him anakin's step brother rite? Im not sure which storyline I should follow . George lucas better keep things straight , he already messed things up in Ep 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vestril Posted May 10, 2002 Share Posted May 10, 2002 It never says in the movies who Lars is the brother to, since Luke calls him 'Uncle Owen' it would seem to make most sense that he is Anakin's brother or step brother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCanr2d2 Posted May 11, 2002 Share Posted May 11, 2002 Anyone stop to think that Owen may not be Luke's uncle, but he refers to them in this way. When Luke was old enough, he was probably told that they were his Aunt and Uncle, so that he didn't know about why he had been seperated from his parents and twin sister. Not everything is literal in Star Wars..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muh2o Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 Answer to this question (MAJOR SPOILER!!) Owen Lars is introduced to Anakin, and Owen introduces his GIRLFRIEND Beru. Anakin is told that Owen is indeed his step brother, as his father freed Shmi (from slavery) and married her. Owen's father is in the scene as well. he has lost part of his right leg trying to.., well, I don't want to spoil the WHOLE thing... Enjoy it tonight everyone, or whenever you get a chance to see it. I've seen it THREE times already, and it rocks more each time. The first time you will watch it and probably get caught up in the eye candy. The second time you settle down and follow the story, and if you can't even follow so much as a simple cartoon w/o getting confused, such as myself, the third time things begin to make sense All I can say is REALLY read the scrolling text in the beginning. For some reason none of it sunk in the first two screenings, but when I read it the third time, the whole movie made a lot more sense to me.
