Owen Lars Never Paints the Ceiling

In Star Wars: Attack of the Clones (2002), Owen Lars tells his wife he will paint the ceiling tomorrow. 22 years later, in a New Hope, he still hasn't painted it.

Owen Lars sits with his family in the same home across two Star Wars films, while the ceiling remains unfinished. The joke points out the continuity gag that he promised to paint it in Attack of the Clones but still had not done so 22 years later in A New Hope, making this a reaction to procrastination and broken promises.
