Default Re: TL;DR Nerdy Questions...

* The word Jedi is both plural and singular. The title can refer to Luke; Leia; Anakin; or any combination of the three.

* Here's my real question: Why is Vader in Episode 4 so unrespected? Check out how the Admirals and Captains react to him in Episode 5. They are scared of him because he is in charge. But in Episode 4, the dude that Vader force choked was basically telling him off, calling The Force magic or something after Vader says that the power of the Death Star is nothing compared to The Force.

The obvious answer is that Lucas didn't come up with the idea for the trilogy until after Episode 4 was a hit. But Wookiepedia says that Lucas's original idea was Episodes 4-6, and when he realized it would be too long for one movie, he expanded Episode 4.

So what gives?
