: Ok man I highly doubt it than their is anyone who dosn't know Vader is Lukes father. It was probably the biggest shock in cinimatic history when it was first revealed, but now it's common knowledge.
Well, yeah, sure. But I'm talking about somebody who, say, lived in the jungle all his life or otherwise never heard of Star Wars at all, and he sees the films for the first time, in their intended order, Menace thru Jedi. He'd watch that "I am your father" scene and wonder why the filmmakers made such a big deal out of it, since it WOULD be common knowledge after seeing III. I'm just concerned for the integrity of Georgie-boy's saga here.
