So over the course of the last week I've been watching all 6 of the Star Wars movies in bits during my lunch break at work. What I'm struck with now that I've almost finished A New Hope is how horrible the continuity is between the original movies and those abominations Lucas made to increase his bottom line. A few examples:
1) Obi Wan doesn't remember R2-D2 or C3PO in ANH but does remember to give Luke the lightsaber and that he fought with Anakin in the Clone War.
2) The story he tells of Owen Lars being afraid Luke would follow Ben off on "some damn fool idealistic crusade, like your father" indicates that Owen knew Anakin much better than just babysitting his cougar while Anakin slaughtered Tuskens.
3) Judging by the the film, Luke and Leia appear to be about 20 years old or so. Judging by RotS, Obi Wan appeared to be about 30-35. That means that the Alec Guiness Obi Wan was only about 50-55, but he looked way much older.
There's more, but anyone else?
