Sorry to nit-pick, Todd, but your quote of Yoda is wrong...
The actual line is:
"Always in motion is the future..."
What really got me was that Lucas seems to have broken continuity himself rather
badly... In TESB, Obi Wan tells Luke, "You must go to the Degobah System...
There you will find Yoda, the Jedi Master who instructed me." Later, he tells
Yoda, "Was I any different [less headstrong] when you taught me?"
The only way out of this contradiction is if <supposition> Qui Gon Jinn trained
Obi Wan as a Padawan, but now that Qui Gon is dead, Obi Wan's further Jedi
Knight training must be under someone else (Yoda).
Of course, we could always attribute it to Obi Wan's "certain point of view" :-)
but I think this would be a very lazy way out...
BTW, I also REALLY HATED the fact that they "explained" the Force in such a
rediculous way... Better a mysterious and mystical energy field... IMO.
