10 More Star Wars Mistakes You Can't Unsee
5. A Disappearing Jacket - Episode IV: A New Hope
Long after that massive metal object peculiarly vanished during the general's fight with Grievous in Episode III, Ben Kenobi was present for another strange disappearing act on Tatooine.
When Luke Skywalker is handed his father's old lightsaber inside of Obi-Wan's home, what looks like a jacket or robe of some sort is seen hanging in the background next to where C-3PO is perched.
However, as the shot switches to one from a slightly different angle, that item of clothing immediately evaporates. It's then completely absent whilst the son of Anakin is playing around with the elegant weapon as Ben rambles on about Jedi Knights and the old Republic.
Right as Kenobi mentions the "dark times", though, that dangling item suddenly decided to pop back up behind Skywalker, almost like it didn't care about civilised weapons but desperately wanted to learn more about what happened to young Luke's pops.
In reality, the folks helping to bring to life the mind-blowing visual of a lightsaber being switched on for the very first time on-screen were probably just focusing all their energy on trying to nail this epic effect, and unfortunately failed to spot one little absent prop on the wall during the awesome ignited laser sword shot.
But now you'll never unsee it!
