Repost from Risa@startrek

As a millennial, the Trek VS Wars debates always confused me. Star Trek is philosophy and political science class in a scifi, flavor of the week format. And Star Wars is fantasy in a science fiction setting. Why can’t we all just love them for what they are?

Here we see Deeana Troi poking fun at how quickly a couple retcons about family and the force sort of ruin the first half of a New Hope. If Luke could call out to Leia at the end of ESB then how did Vader not know here?

    Obi-wan and Quigon Jin (spelling) were able to detect Anakin’s force ability just by being near him. Supposedly Leah’s ability is even stronger than Luke’s. So how does Vader not detect anything?

      I’m not sure if I remember this correctly, but Qui-Gon only starts suspencting Anakin’s Force sensitivity after learning about him racing pods, which is usually beyond human capabilities.
