Star Wars Memes
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.
Ooh ah ooh ooh ah
Stop it please
Close. The actual line is:
Hm ha, hm-hm-hm ha-hm hm ha, hm-hm-hm hm-ha hm ha, hm-hm-hm hm hm-hm ha!
Hey man quit that banging
"Stop it, please!"
"Don't hit me!"
"Please!"
"Don't hit me!"
And now I have this song in my head
Haha beat me to posting that link. Definitely the best one they made.
"mine. Mine! MINE! - or I will help you not."
When R2 gives up and lets go, his final little punctuated whack to shut R2's tool hatch...that might be my favorite character beat in the entire series. Like, "That's right, fucker!"
Old Yoda is insane! I have no idea what happened between Prequel and Sequel.
Well, he's ancient, so there's probably a touch of senility, a dash of insanity from extended isolation, and a good amount of pretending to be some crazy hermit to get an unfiltered view of Luke's personality. He also seems to have done a lot of reflection on how the Order screwed itself, first during his exile, and then after his death.
Plus whatever he's been eating in that swamp.
Yoda is the best.
Wise and crazy is always the most real combo.
Unlike Mace Windu who is just badass, or Obi Wan that is always british.
Well, Yoda was always a huge troll.
What is hard to explain is why R2D2 acted like that.
The relationship between R2D2 and Anakin makes no sense in the old movies.
Like, Darth Vader just ignores it???
Like, especially in clone wars, R2D2 is the biggest badass of all, saved Anakins life so often.
"Aah, Artoo, nice to see you again, it is. Mess with Luke, we will, yes? Mm-hm-hm-hm-hm!"
