This is one of my pet peeves - so you have a HUGE universe to work with, thousands and thousands of interresting planets, anything you can imagine. But no, because of callback$ and reference$ we’re getting to the same planets over and over again, even to Tatooine which should be by its purpose in the story forgetable, boring, a planet everyone overlooks
I mean, Tatooine comes up more than other planets in the movies, but it’s not actually all that strange.
Tatooine is where Luke grew up, in the farm of his uncle and aunt. Which immediately ties his father to that place in some fashion. Or you would have to explain why Owen and Beru chose to move there, which seems much more difficult.
Han Solo is there trying to work things out with Jabba, which doesn’t go well at all, but does explain why we go back to Tatooine for a third time in RotJ: that’s just where Jabba lives.
Well, it is a planet everyone overlooks.

I feel this way about the Clone Wars animated series. Lots of people dismiss it as being just for kids, or hate it 'cause ‘Snips’, but it did more to bring me into the lore than the original trilogy.
“…but I have never bothered to check because I hate sand.”
Comb the dessert!
We ain’t found shit!
You know who that actor was? Tim Russ, who played Tuvok on Voyager!
Thank you! That was awesome!
You’re welcome! I’m kinda surprised you hadn’t seen that before.
I mean with the mask and the breathing difficulties I wouldn’t trust it, he is one grain of sand away of asphyxiation.
No wonder all the sand people are so darn tired of all them immigrants messing up their lands.
Are we still talking about Star Wars?
Naw we’re talking about Dune
Then I can dig it.

There’s so much happening on Tatooine, it’s crazy that Luke ever wanted to leave in the first place
Helicopter parents will do that
I was hoping that, if we had to return to Tatooine in the sequel trilogy, they’d at least lampshade it and show us a budding historical tourism industry getting going.
Guided tours of significant locations, hunting expeditions, museums…
Instead they just gave it a different name.
“Its even got a fucking Star Forge buried in it”
Wasn’t it just a Star Map?
Ya. It was just a map piece. The star forge was destroyed above Abo according to wookieepedia.
You went back to it in the MMO for some reason. I don’t remember why. Sith just be Sithing around I guess.
Ahh yeah that’s what I was thinking, got them mixed up with the map
And a very helpful protocol droid.
The point where Star Wars totally lost me was when it turned out C3PO was fucking built by Darth Vader when he was a kid. I just couldn’t suspend my disbelief anymore. I loved the original three movies when I was a kid, but damn, it’s completely left me behind at this point.
Hey, occasionally things happen on [Death Star flavor of the month].
Is Tatooine the Brazil of the Galaxy?
Brasil, but instead of tropical beaches and jungle it’s just sand
