That funny, sly little smile Obi Wan gives to Vader in A New Hope before he lets Vader kill him might tell the whole story about the Obi Wan character.

“I didn’t give in to evil. Not now. Not ever. And you only win now because I let you win.”

*Then Vader ends up confusedly kicking some empty clothes around, like it’s laundry day, and wondering what the hell happened. He is so utterly perplexed and unsatisfied.*

Master vs. Student. But Obi Wan always owned Anakin’s ass at the end, didn’t he?

I’ve said before: I do, frankly, love the
fact that Obi-Wan’s death scene is one gigantic mind game: 

• Hey Anakin, I was
  still alive after all; 
• I’m here for
  reasons you don’t totally understand and I won’t disclose;
• I’m facing off
  with you for some reason when surely I know I can’t beat you now;
• Oh BTW, this
  kid you’ve never seen before, who has Force Waves radiating off of him, came
  here with me;
• I’m not gonna
  tell you who the kid is;
• I’m not gonna
  tell you what I meant when I told you that killing me would only make me
  stronger;
• I’m gonna cap
  this all off with physically becoming the
  Force right in front of you, which is something you maybe had no idea was even possible;
• Well, have fun trying to figure all this out, Anakin! Sure
  looks to me like I might still have
  the high ground after all. CHECKMATE, MY
  VERY YOUNG APPRENTICE. KENOBI OUT.

Fking Kenobi.

Still a fav

Christ, did he own him. In every possible way.

Eternally has the high ground.
