Why did Luke dress the way he did in Jabba's palace? The black tunic and pants are pretty straight forward but his tabbards and obi puzzle me. They look sort of improvised. Was he trying to convey the image of a Jedi to Jabba? Is there some practical use for his attire? Is there any "real" explanation for how he dressed (ie canon)?

Real Answer; Lucas' idea of what a Jedi Should Wear was probably still "Less raggedy than Obi-Wan".

In Canon Answer: Luke is still technically a padawan at this point. He's completed his lightsaber construction (Generally the final step in Jedi Knighthood) but he's yet to face and conquer all of his trials. That being said, he's also trying to teach himself the Jedi Ways through cobbled together historical accounts - kinda like how we try and understand what the culture and religious beliefs of ancient civilizations were through little more than pottery and some stone slabs we *think* were altars of some kind - so he doesn't have a full and complete grasp of Jedi culture as he would later on in life (after finding Calista and a few other remaining Jedi from the Purges, plus more intact historical records).

Also I'm pretty sure he didn't have help in putting his obi and tabbards on, which I would assume a few Jedi in their hayday may have had Tongue

they used the Force to help them get dressed Tongue

each and everytime I iron my Jedi costume I wonder how big the laundry workforce within the temple would have to be to cope Tongue and I get this funny image of a padawan grumbling as he irons his uniform straight. Maybe they just press the creases out with the Force as well lol

I don't know why he dressed the way he did, but he apparently missed the memo about not wearing dark colors in hot environments.  Those twin suns must have been murder.  You would think he would know better having grown up on Tatooine.

I felt a great disturbance in the force as if millions of nerds cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

Integrity can accommodate the inadvertent error and the honest difference of opinion; it cannot accommodate deceit or subordination of principle.

I actually wear dark colors in the sunlight all the time. Growing up in a hot place (The low desert of Southern Cali), I actually don't notice large amounts of heat for the most part. Could be the same thing for Luke.

Along those lines, and I don't read the Star Wars Insider magazine like I used to, but years ago before they developed the Clone Wars cartoons they discussed the possibility of a live action TV series.  Now CW has runs its course and the new Rebels series is coming out, but has anyone heard anything else about a live action series, or did this idea get scrapped when they began to develop the new movies?

I believe that the live action TV series had about 50 hours of scripted material, but if I had to guess, they're likely going to poach the best bits for the movies.

I had a friend who was following the development and production of the Live Action Series pretty closely.  As an Star Trek TV series fan, he was super excited to see what Star Wars what would look like in the same Live Action, Episodic format.  The last he knew the Live Action series would being put on hold due to the sale to Disney and due to the expenses involved in the CGI part of production.

He had told me Lucas was looking for ways to reduce the expenses of CGI so he could have theatrical quality CGI in every episode of a 26 episode season.  In essence get the cost of CGI from ~50 million+ for CGI production in a film down to ~5 million per film.  That is a HUGE reduction in cost and almost an impossible goal.
