Center, Univ. of Texas at Austin Lines: 11 You didn't miss anything. No where in the movies do they tell you that Lars was Obi Wan's brother. That little bit of information came out in the novelization of Return of the Jedi and there's really no excuse for it. The question should be: Why is in science fiction movies lately you have to buy the book to fully appreciate what went on on the screen? I can think of several examples. Maybe 2001 set a bad example.
