Luuuke Skywalker
I'm honestly a little surprised we never got Luuuuke.

Mos Eisley Cantina
Brilliant. This establishes that this world isn't a clean sci-fi future like Star Trek or something, it's a grimy, gross universe full of dangerous people. There are normal booths to sit in with stucco walls behind them, there's a dirty bar with a racist bartender, gross aliens with anteater snouts playing the flute, for some reason Satan is there, and no one bats an eye when you chop off a guy's arm or shoot a man in cold blood. It's so, so good. Hell, I can hear the theme song in my mind right now. By the way, do you know the name of that song? I literally cannot post it on GameFAQs thanks to the censor, just google it if you don't know.

I'm Han Solo (Star Wars Kinect)
I rewatched the video for this topic. I really like how Lobot is the DJ, and how Han enters the arena with a little cocky nod. Lando takes over halfway through and immediately starts thrusting in the air.

This was the final big Star Wars thing to come out pre-Disney buyout, you know. I remember when it came out, people treated it like it was the ultimate betrayal of fans, and I was just like... have you people seen literally any Star Wars thing since 1983? Star Wars isn't the selloutingest series of all time (that's TMNT), but it's damn close.

Obi-Wan Kenobi
The ultimate mentor figure of moviedom, to the point where TVTropes article for mentors used to be call the Obi-Wan. Obi-Wan works great as Anakin's mentor and as the last Jedi who must train Luke (never mind about Yoda), but as a character unto himself, he's... fine. He serves a very specific purpose as a bygone relic of another time, the wizard who lives in a world of technology, the guru who can use the Force, but is still at least partly connected to the physical world. He is the gateway to a new world for Luke more than he is a real character, which is curious, because he has the only actor in the entire franchise who's actually competent. Sir Alec Guinness is the only person in the entire franchise who never completely embarrasses himself. There are a whole bunch of moments with Obi-Wan where you can tell what he's thinking based on Alec Guinness' performance, which gives the character a subtlety that he probably doesn't deserve.

Remember when Obi-Wan challenges Greivous, and the camera zooms in on their eyes? What the hell was that about?
