Rebels - S4E10 - "Jedi Night"

19:40 - Hera (to Kanan):  "I love you."  Padmé says this to Anakin in Revenge of the Sith [1:46:02]; Leia says it to Han in The Empire Strikes Back [1:35:54]; and Han says it to Leia in Return of the Jedi [1:48:03].

Rebels - S4E9 - "Rebel Assault"

0:24 - The general composition of this shot matches a shot near the end of A New Hope [1:45:14]:

0:45 - Hera:  "Lock S-foils in attack position."  Red Leader gives the same instruction in A New Hope ("Lock S-foils in attack position" [1:45:38]), and so does Wedge in Return of the Jedi ("Lock S-foils in attack positions" [1:34:20]).

6:32 - Once again, Thrawn is standing in the same position and in the same posture as Vader in The Empire Strikes Back [20:27]:

8:13 - Ruhk (after Thrawn tells him to capture the Rebel pilots alive if possible):  "It will be done, Grand Admiral."  The similar line "It will be done, my lord" appears three times in Revenge of the Sith, all directed to Sidious/Palpatine:  General Grievous agrees to move the Separatist leaders to Mustafar [28:43] and a clone pilot and Commander Gree acknowledge Order 66 [1:22:18 and 1:23:01, respectively].

8:35 - Ezra (referring to Hera):  "We will find her, Kanan; I promise."  In The Phantom Menace, Obi-Wan tells Anakin, "You will be a Jedi; I promise" [2:07:43], and in Revenge of the Sith, Padmé tells Anakin, "I'm not gonna die in childbirth, Ani; I promise you," and he replies, "No, I promise you" [53:46].  Later, Anakin also tells her, "Things will be different; I promise" [1:29:13].

 

11:13 - Governor Pryce (referring to one of the Rebel pilots):  "Take him away for interrogation."  In The Phantom Menace, Nute Gunray commands, "Take him away," to a pair of battle droids, referring to Sio Bibble [1:18:19], and in Attack of the Clone, Jango Fett says, "Take him away" to battle droids, referring to Anakin [1:42:30].

11:19 - Stormtrooper:  "Governor Pryce, found the flight leader's ship in the eastern district, but there's no sign of the pilot or astromech."  Luke also uses this expression during the Battle of Yavin at the end of A New Hope; after Red Ten asks Luke if he sees any fighters, Luke replies, "No sign of any- wait, comin' in point three five" [1:51:59].

16:31 - Kanan (to the Lothwolf):  "I don't have time for this!"  In The Phantom Menace, Padmé says, "We don't have time for this, Captain" to Panaka while exchanging fire with battle droids [1:52:54].

21:02 - Kanan:  "It's alright, Mart.  There's nothing you could have done."  In A New Hope, Obi-Wan tells Luke the same thing after he finds his aunt and uncle dead:  "There's nothing you could have done, Luke, had you been there" [42:02].

Rebels - S4E8 - "Crawler Commandeers"

1:59 - General Dodonna:  "Based upon data provided by Captain Syndulla, the TIE Defender Elite possesses speed, weapons, and shields superior to any fighter in our fleet."  There's some similarity between this and what he says about the Death Star during the briefing in A New Hope:  "An analysis of the plans provided by Princess Leia has demonstrated a weakness in the battle station" [1:40:01].

4:44 - Ezra:  "Hello there!"

Captain Seevor:  "Pirate scum!"

"Hello, there" is also Obi-Wan's greeting to General Grievous in Revenge of the Sith [57:30] and to R2-D2 in A New Hope [30:07], and insults involving scum also appear in The Phantom Menace (before the podrace, Sebulba tells Anakin in Huttese, "You won't walk away from this one, you slave scum" [57:20]), Revenge of the Sith (General Grievous calls Anakin "Jedi scum" [19:12]), The Empire Strikes Back (Admiral Piett remarks, "Bounty hunters!?  We don't need their scum." [1:05:52]), and Return of the Jedi (an Imperial officer says, "You rebel scum" [1:33:51]).

6:13 - Mining Guild HQ:  "Is this operator 94-34?"  The number 94 also appears in A New Hope; after making an agreement with Obi-Wan, Han tells him, "We'll leave as soon as you're ready.  Docking bay 94." [49:17].

12:46 - Ezra (upon finding Vizago):  "Vizago?  I don't believe it."  Luke also says, "I don't, I don't believe it" in The Empire Strikes Back, after Yoda uses the Force to get his X-wing out of the swamp [1:13:10].

14:14 - Vizago (posing as the captain of the crawler):  "This is the captain, uh, 93-94."  See above, 6:13.

14:25 - Vizago:  "Eh, we're having a maintenance issue and, uh, lost our security codes, uh, but everything is under control."  In Revenge of the Sith, a clone trooper tells Senator Organa, "Don't worry; the situation is under control" [1:24:35], and in A New Hope, Han makes the same claim twice, once to an Imperial officer ("Uh, everything's under control, situation normal" [1:15:18]) and once to Leia ("I had everything under control till you led us down here" [1:19:37]).

15:10 - Vizago (to a stormtrooper):  "I told you everything was under control."  See above, 14:25.

17:12 - Captain Seevor (to the Rebels):  "Patch me through to the Empire, or I will destroy this crawler, you pirate scum."  See above, 4:44.

17:55 - Kanan (to the comlink to Sabine):  "Ugh, I can't cut through [the refinery doors] either; they're magnetically sealed."  In A New Hope, Luke makes nearly the same comment about the egress in the trash compactor:  "It's magnetically sealed" [1:19:31].

21:02 - Sabine:  "We're receiving a transmission."  In The Phantom Menace, a Naboo crewman tells Captain Panaka nearly the same thing via comlink, "Receiving a message from home" [37:23], and in Revenge of the Sith, Captain Colton tells Senator Organa, "We're receiving a message from the Chancellor's office, sir" [1:31:44].

Rebels - S4E7 - "Kindred"

4:17 - Ezra (referring to Ruhk):  "Blast it!"

Jai Kell:  "I'm trying!  I'm trying!"

There are two similarities to the original trilogy here.  First, Luke also yells "Blast it!" to Han in A New Hope (referring to the dianoga in the trash compactor):  "Blast it, will you!?" [1:20:38].  Second, Leia gives the same response to Han in the trash compactor in A New Hope [1:23:41]; Han says, "Get on top of it," and Leia replies, "I'm trying!"  In Return of the Jedi, Han also says, "I'm trying" in exasperation while trying to lower a spear for Lando to grab [34:21].

7:09 - Hera (to Kanan):  "Getting this TIE Defender data to the Rebellion is vital."  Leia says something similar about the Death Star plans in her message to Obi-Wan in A New Hope:  "I have placed information vital to the survival of the rebellion into the memory systems of this R2 unit" [35:21].

9:40 - Jai (to Ezra):  "Good luck."

and

9:49 - Sabine (to Hera):  "Good luck."

In The Empire Strikes Back, an unidentified Rebel pilot wishes Luke good luck [36:02] and Luke wishes Lando good luck [2:00:09], and in Return of the Jedi, Han and Lando wish each other good luck [Han to Lando at 50:33 and Lando to Han at 52:21].

10:56 - Zeb:  "We won't stand long against those tanks."  In Return of the Jedi, Admiral Ackbar uses nearly the same expression after Lando says to engage the Star Destroyers point blank:  "At that close range, we won't last long against those Star Destroyers" [1:43:58].

17:22 - Zeb:  "Where in blazes are we?"  Obi-Wan uses the same expression in Attack of the Clones:  "What in the blazes is he [Anakin] doing there [on Tatooine]?" [1:22:27].
