To All,

    Alright folks, as I am listening to all the SW movies, I am getting
either more confused or more frustrated. Here is another question. Since I
was listening to all the classic movies, a question really started to
surface, especially since Episode 1 came out. Obi Wan constantly referred to
Yoda training him in the classic series, especially the Empire Strikes Back.
However, Episode 1 revealed that Qui Jonn Jinn actually trained him. Is
there any reference to this in the books or anything, or is this just a
glaring contradiction? Any information would be beneficial.

  Re: Obi Wan Kenobi Training Question
 
(...) One of the first bits of dialogue in Episode I is about the difference between Qui-Gon and Yoda's training (well, their views on the Force). I can't remember all of the lines exactly, but Qui-Gon says something about focusing on the present, (...) (24 years ago, 17-Apr-00, to lugnet.starwars)
  Re: Obi Wan Kenobi Training Question
 
I sure hope this adds to your confusion. There are many great theories about who trained Obi Wan, but my question is how old was he when he was trained? In Empire Strikes Back, Yoda objects to training Luke saying that he is too old, ghost Obi Wan (...) (24 years ago, 17-Apr-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Well we can assume that the very first time we saw the Queen that it was not her. If you recall the 'Queen' says she doesn't want to trouble her hand-maidens. 'Padme' replies "we are brave your majesty." At which point the 'Queen' agrees to go (...) (24 years ago, 7-Apr-00, to lugnet.starwars)
