Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.
Technical note: if you're coming from another star system and are getting a "Subscription pending" message when trying to dock, that's just the console being slow to display the right message. The connection is already established. (Probably.)

IMPORTANT
Do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

Special days!
Friday and weekends: Caption contest. An image will be pinned, and we shall make captions for it and post them in the comments.
Wednesday: Theme day. We have Droids day, EU day, poem day, aliens day... Let the pinned post guide you. Memes with the theme are preferred.

Other universes to visit:
Separatist systems:
Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):
==========
Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.
The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:
-
This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.
-
We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.
-
As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!
-
Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.
-
Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).
-
Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.
-
Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

TIL people actually quote the sequels. The PT was a hot mess with tons of issues but at least they are infinitely memeworthy; ST is just so incredibly forgettable and unmemorable..
"The garbage will do"
Rey Skywalker
I literally don't know if this is a real quote and don't even have a guess what the context was. After Han's snippy remark about a trash compactor maybe? Idk
When Rey and Finn are running to find a ship off of Jakku and Rey calls the Millennium Falcon garbage, then the ship they wanted gets blown up so she says the above quote.
Not true, I distinctly remember my hatred of the entire plot and progression of The Last Jedi and the ending of Rise of Skywalker.
The rest of it I don't know anything about but that's more likely because I've only seen each one once and never subbed to r/sequelmemes and have only played The Complete Saga LEGO Star Wars games.
Heh, I too vividly remember my disgust, confusion, disappointment, etc. But the movies themselves, I can barely remember anything. The structure was just so nonexistent, the plot so weak, the whole thing felt like a series of B plot vignettes duct taped together into one frankensteinian trilogy of nonsense.
Ok, I just remembered them riding horses on the hull of a star destroyer in orbit! Not sure how to meme that but there's something. And freeing those horses at the monte carlo casino (briefly before they got recaptured obviously)..oh and the part where the totally fucking ruined everything about space battles by telling us we could just be ramming capital ships and death stars with small objects going lightspeed.
Godamnit now I'm all freshly pissed off again, fuck I hate those movies so much lol
I decided to watch Rise of Skywalker, just so I could finish Star Wars and be done with. Halfway through I realised that I've already seen it but had forgotten. Just think, the culmination of Star Wars was so bad, that I couldn't remember watching it. I still can't remember anything about the film.
