Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

Separatist systems:
Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):

Please do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

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.

Be careful not to choke on your aspirations, freamon

Something's happening freamon. I'm not the Jedi I should be. I want more. And I know I shouldn't.

I know, freamon, but the way you said it was all wrong.
somehow palpatine returned?
You have to have a very high IQ to understand the star wars sequels freamon.
The subtext is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of the extended universe most of the references will go over a typical viewer’s head.
There’s also Luke’s nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Kilji Illumine literature, for instance.
The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of this allegory, to realise that they’re not just worldbuilding- they say something deep about LIFE.
As a consequence people who dislike the sequels truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn’t appreciate, for instance, the humour in Rey’s famous line 'Somehow palpatine returned' which itself is a cryptic reference to how palpatine’s force spirit possessed the clones of himself he had prepared in advance.
I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as J. J. Abrams’s genius wit unfolds itself on the cinema screens.
What fools … how I pity them

One day, freamon, I will become the greatest Jedi EVER. I will even learn how to stop people from dying.
Cool
