Maybe he was before the start of Ep1. But since it was mentioned in Empire you suspect it would've been shown more clearly in the first trilogy. *Shrug*The only reckless thing I ever saw Obi-Wan do was jump through a window to grab a flying droid in Ep2. The one instance is hardly enough to portray his character as being reckless.DocMoriartty wrote:Agreed.Canis wrote:That's a good point too. However I don't think that line of thought should apply with the Jedi here.Under optimum conditions, no exceptions should be made. I agree. Assuming that the theory poster here have that Jedi are taken at an early age to they only have mentors and not traditional parents. But the case of Anakin came to the Jedi under different circumstances. One that involved his mother too. I don't think making an exception here would have fostered any resentment from other Jedi. The others would've known that his case is different. If any Jedi had resentment, then perhaps they aren't the type that should be Jedi to begin with. Relocating his mother wouldn't have disrupted his training. If anything, it would've improved it. He wouldn't be tempted to break mission parameters to go rescue her or anything.They already made an exception anyways by letting Anakin in at his age, its obvious that the Mother must come with that exception. I think its just more poor writing from Lucas.DocMoriartty wrote:I don't think Yoda was trying to stop Luke from going to Bespin because he thought he was going for selfish reasons. Yoda didn't want him to go because he knew it must be some sort of trap. That more than likely its Vadar behind his friend's suffering. And that if he went he would encounter Vader. Yoda was afraid Vader would tempt Luke into the dark side. And he was right.Vader tempted Luke to hatred and anger. But thank goodness Yoda's fears were avoided. Luke remained strong and survived the encounter. Yoda just didn't want Luke taking the risk, considering he still had much to learn.</blockquote>
