10 Times Star Wars Broke Its Own Rules (And You Didn't Notice)

Here's a hilarious inconsistency you almost certainly forgot about, or perhaps never even noticed in the first place.

In A New Hope, Obi-Wan and Luke (Mark Hamill) come across a downed Sandcrawler and Obi-Wan memorably remarks, "These blast points are too accurate for Sand People. Only Imperial Stormtroopers are so precise."

Now, even accepting the whole issue of "Stormtrooper aim," Obi-Wan's summary dismissal of the Sand People/Tusken Raiders' marksmanship runs counter to numerous subsequent depictions of their incredible sniping abilities.

Take The Phantom Menace, where a Tusken Raider shoots a Podracer moving at incredible speed, and more recently The Book of Boba Fett, where Tusken Raiders manage to snipe guards on a moving train.

Of course it's possible to assume that Obi-Wan was simply mistaken in his estimation of the Tusken Raiders, but if Obi-Wan is supposedly such a wise and knowledgeable individual, it feels less like an intentional character flourish than an internal inconsistency with how the Raiders are presented.
