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.

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:

  1. 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.

  2. We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.

  3. 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!

  4. 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.

  5. 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).

  6. 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.

  7. Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

Honestly, I like the prequel universe more. The movies are just a bit weird sometimes

I liked that they (the prequels) expanded the world of star wars and felt fun and fantastical (as I imagine the original triology felt when it came out). The Sequels tried to be too dark and moody in my opinion.

That's why I hated empire strikes back. It was trying too hard to be edgy.

Says the edgy comment...

Can you expand on that ? What exactly did being too edgy look like in 1980 ?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 months ago

It was edgy in the same way a Zack Snyder film is.

. . . that's what life is, it's a series of down endings.

Return of the Jedi was better. It brought the series back to a whimsical nature.

No one hates Star Wars half as much as Star Wars fans.

I love start wars

You know what would really suck though?

If they made any Matrix or Highlander sequels.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

yeah, glad that these sequel fuckers didn't think about mad max or the terminator either. there can be only one.

You've gone two steps too far, my friend.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 months ago

It's my pile of sand, and I'm keeping my head deep down within it. Now "temple of doom", that was going too far. And dont get me started on the godfather

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 months ago

I have memories of literally asking this to my dad when I was a child and he telling me that they would never ever make more star wars movies
