Line 17:
*** Also, Deris being shot down by Darth Vader is even more harsh after the revelation that he and Vader (then known as Anakin Skywalker) were originally ''comrades''.
* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: Obi Wan's line that the blaster marks are too precise for Sand People and must be from Stormtroopers gets funnier as the series goes on. We see (Justified and not) [[Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy|stormtroopers miss nearly everything they shoot for]], while the Tuskens are able to hit pod racers moving at hundreds of MPH in ''[[The Phantom Menace]]''.
** Given what we later discover about Vader's [[You Have Failed Me...|policy on employee mistakes]] in the next movie, Admiral Motti comes off as ''exceptionally'' stupid for picking a fight with Vader, especially by mocking the religion ''the Emperor holds to''. This is even lampshaded by Grand Moff Tarkin in the Death Star Technical Manual, where he expressed that if Motti didn't keep his opinions to himself regarding the Force, he won't last long under Palpatine's Empire.
* [[Memetic Mutation]]: "These are not the droids you're looking for."
** '''"I have you now!"'''
** "Use the Force, Luke."
* [[Mis BlamedMisblamed]]: Vader did not destroy Alderaan. Tarkin did. Some fans actually forget this.
** So did Leia, apparently.
* [[Offstage Villainy]]: The Empire as a whole. They do some pretty evil things with that Death Star, but we never hear much of how they affect the rest of the Galaxy. A deleted scene between Luke and Biggs explores this somewhat.
