This is certainly

This is certainly ... strange. Winter Soldier actor, Sebastian Stan, and Luke Skywalker himself, Mark Hamill, bare an uncanny resemblance to each other opening up the question: could Stan play a younger Skywalker in a movie taking place between RotJ and TFA? #StarWars #Jedi #Marvel #CaptainAmerica #WinterSoldier http://www.techinsider.io/sebastian-stan-looks-like-luke-skywalker-2016-5

Five Star Wars Plot Holes Explained, Explained.

Re:  This Article on the Huffington Post Yeah, these aren't really surprises. Let's assume these aren't "holes" and that we have to take a _certain point of view_ with the scenes: 1- Leia is adopted by the Organa's. Since this is Alderaan and they're a peaceful people with no weapons, one could reasonably assume that adoption is fairly common, even amongst royalty.

There came many a weekend afternoon watching the movies in syndication and many hundreds of hours watching them on VHS before George Lucas changed the film...
