    In the original “Star Wars” (now known as “Star Wars: Episode IV- A New Hope”), Luke asks Obi-Wan how his father died. Obi-Wan tells him “A young Jedi named Darth Vader, who was a pupil of mine before he turned to evil, helped the Empire hunt down and destroy the Jedi Knights. He betrayed and murdered you father.”

    In “Return of the Jedi”, (Episode VI) Luke sees a ‘Force Ghost’ of Obi-Wan. Luke asks him “Why didn’t you tell me? You told me Vader betrayed and murdered my father.” Obi-Wan responds “Your father was seduced by the Dark Side of the Force. He ceased to be Anakin Skywalker and became Darth Vader. When that happened the good man who was your father was destroyed. So what I told you was true- from a certain point of view.”

        No problem :) I’m not exactly sure what they meant by “cave conversation” unless they mistook Obi-Wan’s hut for a cave.

        I am admittedly biased and possibly influenced by nostalgia, but in my opinion the original Trilogy holds up quite well, and is actually the best trilogy. If you haven’t watched them before I highly recommend them, especially if you are interested in Star Wars.

          excuse me the best trilogy is 5 > 3 > 8. Luke finds out who his father is, spends time learning about his father’s past, then becomes a hermit and dies of depression. it’s got arcs and everything
