It was well below average from what i'd expect from a movie... and weirdly tried to combine "kids stuff" with "galactic political intrigue".

Which meant you had half your audience bored at any time.

Lots of dumb plot holes.... including ones they open up in future movies.

Like why doesn't Obi-Won remember the droids.

 

At least the story was somewhat coherent though... and that was basically it.

Combining "kids stuff" and "galactic political intrigue"? Hmmmm, kinda like those other movies...oh crap, what were they called...oh yeah, Star Wars EpIV-VI.

Obi-won doesnt remember the droids? Or Obi-won doesnt act like he remembers the droids? Or maybe there more R2 and protocol droids in the galaxy than just Threepio and Artoo?

To be honest, the initial meeting between Luke and Obi-won was always slap full of mystery to me. I always got the impression that there was much more that Obi-won wasnt telling us/Luke. The tidbits he dropped about his past with Anakin and the Clone Wars, and the way he reacted when Luke told him that Artoo was looking for him. I never got the impression as a kid that the "I dont seem to recall ever owning a droid" was a straight-forward statement. From the very beginning, Obi-won was mysterious, elusive, and selectively truthful.
