Rebels - S4E4 - "In the Name of the Rebellion, Part II"

5:37 - Stormtrooper (to Chopper):  "Move along, droid!"  In A New Hope, a sandtrooper says nearly the same thing when, prompted by Obi-Wan's influence through the Force, he directs Luke into Mos Eisley:  "Move along.  Move along." [43:51].

14:36 - Captain Slavin (to an Imperial officer):  "Prepare a boarding party."  In The Empire Strikes Back, Vader gives the same instruction to Admiral Piett:  "Prepare the boarding party, and set your weapons for stun" [1:57:09].

15:59 - Stormtrooper (to the Rebels):  "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].

17:21 - Ezra (to Chopper):  "Don't worry about the guards; just meet us there."  "Don't worry" also appears in Attack of the Clones (Anakin tells Padmé, "Don't worry; I've given up trying to argue with you" [1:36:02]), Revenge of the Sith (C-3PO tells Padmé, "Don't worry; I'm sure he'll be alright," referring to Anakin [1:24:00], and a clone trooper tells Bail Organa, "Don't worry; the situation is under control [1:24:35]), A New Hope (Obi-Wan tells R2-D2, "Oh, don't worry; he'll be alright," referring to Luke [30:17]; Han tells Chewbacca, "Don't worry, Chewie; I think I know what he [Luke] has in mind" [1:12:12]; and Han tells Leia, "Don't worry; she'll hold together," referring to the Millennium Falcon [1:34:57]), The Empire Strikes Back (C-3PO tells R2, "Don't worry about Master Luke; I'm sure he'll be alright" [12:45], and Han tells Leia, "Don't worry" [1:20:04]), and Return of the Jedi (Lando, referring to Han, tells Nien Nunb, "Don't worry; my friend's down there; he'll have that shield down on time" [1:27:18]).

17:55 - Stormtrooper (to Chopper):  "Hey, where do you think you're going?"  In A New Hope, Luke also asks R2 this after he goes off to find Obi-Wan:  "Hey, whoa, just where do you think you're going?" [28:12]

19:31 - As the Imperial shuttle that the Rebels stole flies past the bridge, Slavin is standing in the same pose as Vader is on his Star Destroyer in The Empire Strikes Back [20:27]:
