Of course the third sister lives and the badass bad guy is killed.
She’s cringe. He was awesome

How would Owen know that Darth Vader is Anakin?
Aunt Beru : Where are you going?
Luke : Looks like I'm going nowhere. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go finish cleaning those droids.
Aunt Beru : [after Luke leaves] Owen, he can't stay here forever, most of his friends have gone. It means so much to him.
Uncle Owen : I'll make it up to him next year; I promise.
Aunt Beru : Luke's just not a farmer, Owen. He has too much of his father in him.
Uncle Owen : That's what I'm afraid of.

This is just because he knew Anakin as a dick.

The Grand Inquisitor is alive later in the timeline so:
either he didn't die (my guess)
he is a clone
or the later GI is another Jedi Temple guard that also happened to be a Pau'an

I’m very much sure that Owen did NOT know Anakin was alive and was now an evil lord of the sith. I’m sure he loved Luke in his own way and protected him but Obi Wan would have had to care for Luke if he had been honest with Owen and told him the truth. Knowing the truth probably would have affected the way Owen treated Luke but opened up the possibility that Owen never took him in at all.
Obi Wan probably told Owen a similar version to what he told Luke about Vader killing Anakin. This would ensure that there would be SOME danger but not enough to not take Luke in.

We don't know for sure as it has never been explicitly stated.
My guess is Obi-Wan told Owen a version of the truth that Owen would understand such as "Anakin turned against us, so I had to kill him. Here is his kid."
Obi-Wan did believe Obi-Wan to be dead when he gave Luke to Owen.
The less interesting truth of the matter is just that George Lucas wrote Owen's dialogue about Anakin in 1977 before the overall plot was as fleshed out as it was today. Anakin's limited interaction with Aunt Beru and Uncle Owen in Episode II really isn't enough to justify Owen's words about Anakin even with whatever Obi-Wan may have said taken into account
The whole line of dialogue in Episode IV where Obi Wan talks to Luke and is all like, "Uncle Owen thought that Anakin should have stayed here and not gotten involved" is probably the crux of the issue and in my opinion makes even less sense. It does, I think, explain, in part Beru's words to Owen.
She was saying that Anakin was headstrong and always looked to the stars just like Luke, not that Luke is going to kill children if he joins the Imperial Academy.
Owen's response was along the lines of "Well, it got him killed."
Anakin's characterization is pretty consistent but his backstory (if there was one) in 1977 is just not consistent with the Anakin Skywalker we got in the prequels and subsequent media.
It's just one of those things that you have to hand wave away or make up your own headcanon.

We've also seen in the Kenobi trailer Obi and Owen speaking...
Obi: "When the time comes he must be trained"
Owen: "Like you trained his father"
So Owen clearly knows Luke's father was Anakin/Vader

No we don't
That could very easily mean, "You trained him to become a Jedi, and he ended up dead."

Y’all liked this lololololol?!??
I’m usually pretty whatever with most of the liberal stuff, but Leia’s monologues about her cousin and Obi Wan, saying things a 20 year old wouldn’t say, let alone a 10 year old, holy cringe.
And don’t get me started on the dudes running after her. They were waddling back and forth when they were supposed to be chasing her like they had to take a shite. It was horrific.

I enjoyed the inquisitors.

Third Sister sucked. She seems to be a perfectly adequate actress, just wrong for the role. I’m used to Star Wars bad guys being English theater actors (who also played all the Nazis in old war movies) or freaky aliens. This chick sounds like she just walked out of a bar in LA after a bad date. Not the vibe I want from an Inquisitor enthralled to the dark side.

Agree, which makes less sense for Star Wars fans to bitch about “canon” when George fricked it up already

I am a little confused at Obiwan seeming so over the Jedi and it’s ways, seeming determined it’s not only over but very over for him personally yet he also seems bent on training Luke at a later date

He's not over it, he is HIDING. He is advising others to HIDE.
until the right time.

It wasn't widely known what Vader was doing. He ran a lot of things from Mustafar. Check A New Hope where he isn't exactly talked to with respect

Kinda laughed at the fact that they felt the need to put a recap of Episodes 1,2,3 at the beginning

Why can’t Obi Wan/ Bounty hunters chase down a 7 year old?
