In the final moments of Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, Vader stood at the end of a black catwalk on the bridge, while the Imperials were in the pits beneath him. In Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace, Watto is shown a projection of the Naboo royal starship, which is pulled out by Qui-Gon Jinn. Obi-Wan declared "It's over, Anakin" in Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith.
Obi-Wan Kenobi episode 5 begins with a scene from Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones, with both Jedi dressed in their costumes. Across its entire run, Kenobi's Disney+ solo series has also name-dropped Jedi from Star Wars' past, revealed the origin of Luke Skywalker's favorite toy, and continued a long-running Stormtrooper gag. In a meme-worthy Obi-Wan Kenobi Easter egg, the Jedi says, "He killed the other younglings."
On both occasions, Anakin came out worse than Obi-Wan.
When the Grand Inquisitor appeared to die in Obi-Wan Kenobi episode 2, viewers questioned how this moment could possibly adhere to existing canon, with the villain already scheduled for animated appearances later in the timeline via Star Wars Rebels.
Fans of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Jedi: Fallen Order and Force-sensitive popsicles were able to get some Easter eggs from episode 4.
Disney+'s Obi Wan Kenobi continues to give generously in the Star Wars Easter egg stakes - here's every reference we uncovered in episode 5. The message Obi-Wan reads aloud is written under the Jedi symbol and reads "may the Force be with you." Before Rey attempted the same stunt in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, this stunning visual first appeared in the Star Wars: The Force Unleashed video game.
When Obi-Wan finds his tempestuous student looking out towards the Coruscant skyline, his gaze is directed at a tall skyscraper consisting of two connected round-topped structures, one slightly shorter than the other. This week's scrawlings include "Corwin Shelvay," "Djinn Atlis" and "Roganda Ismaren." Because angsty Annie's arms are both intact here, Obi-Wan's episode 5 flashback must take place shortly before or during Attack of the Clones.
Jedi who escape via the Path leave etchings along the walls of their journey, which poses a massive security risk, but also makes for some fascinating Obi-Wan Kenobi Easter eggs. In Obi-Wan Kenobi's "Part V," the Path's refugees hide inside their stronghold while the Empire knocks down their gate. The bowcaster's presence suggests a possible link between the early Rebellion and the Wookiees of Kashyyyk. The architecture of this building is very similar to Padmé's apartment building in Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones.
In Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, Obi-Wan tells Padmé that he killed younglings. A desperate rush to save the Path's refugees ends in a psychological chess match between master and student, and a long-gestating moment of betrayal goes awry. Princess Leia brandishes one in Jabba's palace during Return of the Jedi, the most famous of which was featured in the Star Wars original trilogy. The First Order bang down their gate while the Resistance hides in a stronghold in Rian Johnson's sequel middle-child. There is an R2 astromech unit working on the base's defense system. Darth Vader's Empire is in hot pursuit of Obi-Wan Kenobi's Jedi after he rescued Princess Leia from an Imperial base.
