I saw Star Wars again not that long ago and when old Ben was talking to Luke who was looking Ben and Obi Wan kinda chuckles and rolls his eyes and says "Oh he's not dead, at least not yet, he's me"

I could see EM doing that line
I recently watch Ep IV because of this thread and the whole scene when theyre in Obi-Wan's house gave such a great connection to the characters between the films. MacGregor did a fantastic job and was an inspired choice for Kenobi. Its like he just watched those first few scenes over and over again until he nailed it. Right down do the hand gestures. The best part of the prequels for sure.
