The Clone Wars - S5E9 - "A Necessary Bond"

1:34 - Katooni (after Ganodi doesn't answer on the comlink):  "Where could she be?"  Luke has a similar line in A New Hope as he's trying to raise C-3PO on his comlink:  "Where could he be?" [1:22:12 and 1:23:19], and C-3PO himself has a similar line a bit later in A New Hope:  "Where could they be?" [1:29:33].

6:29 - Grievous (to Hondo):  "You can dispense with the pleasantries, pirate."  Vader says almost the same thing (to Moff Jerjerrod) in Return of the Jedi:  "You may dispense with the pleasantries, commander" [3:58].

9:32 - Battle droid (to R2-D2, who's creating a diversion):  "You just watch yourself."  In A New Hope, Doctor Evazan says this to Luke in the cantina [46:40].

11:08 - Huyang:  "I have instructed younglings for over a thousand generations, and these are among the best I have ever seen."  Obi-Wan uses this same phrase in A New Hope when he tells Luke, "For over a thousand generations, the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace and justice in the old Republic" [33:54].
