Why though, what story does obi wan on tattooine need to tell? Don't get me wrong it's probably the best movie idea but what story are they gonna tell?

Just because he was on Tattooine at the end of Ep 3 and the start of Ep 4 doesn't mean he was only there the entire time in between.  A lot can happen in that roughly 17 years.

I know they tossed out a lot of the canon.. but I thought Obi-Wan basically watched over Luke that entire time. I don't think he left Tatooine. I may be wrong.

Obi Wan was hiding out on tattooine with the sole purpose of watching over luke. I doubt he left the planet much plus he couldn't draw too much attention to himself , obviously that's open to interpretation now since we have little material aside from a few comics and books.

Here's an interview Ewan McGregor did a while back about an obi-wan movie. Pretty intresting read.

Its nice that Ewan can come back without worrying about looking aged because the film will almost certainly take place after E1 and before E4.

On another note, the amount of CG it will take to create a Yoda film makes it almost certainly DOA for me.

I suppose a Boba Fet movie may have potential but the way they handled his character in E1-3 makes me hate him irrationally.

I really hate the idea of a Yoda solo movie unless it took place approximately 100-200 years before the prequel trilogy.  When he's a Master Jedi who has overcome all obstacles to being a true Jedi Master, there's not much of a character arc he could go through.  Beyond reproach, true master... Don't like the idea.  I hate prequels in general, but I could get on board with Obi Wan and Han Solo just because I love those characters.  Yoda?  Eh....

The only way I want a Boba Fett solo movie is if he secretly survived the Sarlac.

We have no confirmation on the timeline yet. With Ewan Mcgregor not confirmed they can tell many stories including before he met Anakin.

If anything, it needs to be either while he was watching over Luke as Old Ben and coming to terms with his death which im sure he foresaw. Or a younger more inexperienced Obi-Wan learning under Qui Gonn. Although I don't think that would work. Because I refuse to accept anyone other then Liam Neeson as Qui Gonn. And I doubt he reprises that role. 

Him being Old Ben sounds like it can be so much more colorful then anything else they can come up with. Kinda like a Logan approach where he is nearing the end of his life but has things he has to accomplish before he can fullfil his destiny to confront Vader.
