Rebels - S4E2 - "Heroes of Mandalore, Part II"

0:30 - Sabine (about the Empire's weapon that targets Mandalorian armor):  "This is all my fault."  C-3PO similarly blames himself in A New Hope, when he thinks that Luke, Leia, Han, and Chewbacca are dying in the trash compactor:  "It's all my fault!" [1:24:42]  Later, when he's tangled in wires in the Millennium Falcon, he also blames R2-D2 with "This is all your fault" [1:36:11].

2:19 - Ursa Wren (to Ezra, after they're thrown by an explosion):  "Are you alright?"  In The Phantom Menace, Anakin asks Qui-Gon, "Are you alright?" [1:17:31] and Padmé asks Anakin, "You alright?" [1:19:06].  In Attack of the Clones, Padmé asks Anakin, "Ani, are you alright?" [50:02], and later a clone trooper asks Padmé, "Are you alright?" [2:05:54].  In Revenge of the Sith, Anakin asks the Chancellor, "Are you alright?"[11:49], and a bit later, Mace Windu asks him, "Chancellor Palpatine, are you alright?" [24:53].  Padmé also asks Anakin, "Are you alright?" [1:27:59].  In A New Hope, Luke asks Obi-Wan this [59:16] and Biggs asks Luke [1:46:44], and in The Empire Strikes Back, Luke asks, "Rogue Two, are you alright?" [30:31].  Twice in The Empire Strikes Back, Han asks this with a shortened "You alright?" once to Luke [22:12] and once to Leia [31:39].  Luke also asks Han, "Are you alright?" when they're captured by Jabba in Return of the Jedi [28:31].

5:03 - Tiber Saxon (to Thrawn):  "The weapon is fully operational, as promised, Grand Admiral."  In Return of the Jedi, Palpatine uses the same words to describe the Death Star when he tells Luke, "Now witness the firepower of this fully armed and operational battle station!" [1:41:27]

10:37 - Ursa (accepting a less combative role in Sabine's plan):  "So be it."  Palpatine uses this same expression in Return of the Jedi, after Luke refuses to turn to the dark side:  "So be it, Jedi" [1:54:26].

14:09 - Tiber (dismissing Captain Hark's arguments):  "I am the Empire!"  Palpatine makes a similar claim to Mace Windu in Revenge of the Sith:  "I am the Senate!" [1:11:13]

15:00 - Ezra (to Kanan, about Sabine):  "She's in trouble."  Han says the similar "We're in trouble" after the Millennium Falcon fails to jump to hyperspace in The Empire Strikes Back [37:54].

17:49 - Stormtrooper (to Kanan):  "Hands up!"  A stormtrooper also says, "Hands up!" to Han and Leia in Return of the Jedi [1:48:07].  In The Phantom Menace, a battle droid says, "Hands up!" to Jar Jar and Captain Tarpals [2:00:19], and in Revenge of the Sith, one says "Hands up, Jedi!" to Anakin [10:22].

20:02 - Bo-Katan:  "This is only the beginning."  During his duel with Yoda in Attack of the Clones, Dooku says nearly the same thing:  "This is just the beginning" [2:09:49].
