    This is one scene that I wish the prequels didn’t undermine. It was cool when the Jedi were some mythological idea rather than people that everyone should’ve known from a decade or two ago.

      There were millions of planets in the Republic, and only about 10k Jedi at any one time. The vast majority of people would never have seen one. The vast majority of planets would probably go generations between having one visit. It is entirely believable that most wouldn’t think that Jedi were real.
