Star Wars Memes

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

==========

Other universes to visit:

!lotrmemes@midwest.social

!tenforward@lemmy.world

Separatist systems:

!prequelmemes@lemmy.world

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

!star_wars@lemmy.world

!starwars@lemmy.ml

!starwarstelevision@lemmy.world

==========

IMPORTANT

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:

  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.

might have even been force controlling her to be in love with him from the start depending on which fan theories you subscribe to.

Man, that is a hilarious idea for explaining away the stiff dialog and delivery. Do you have any links handy? I really hope there's more to that theory than that.

Idk if there's any actual evidence for it. Just theory brought up by EU storylines. Like force connections where two people are connected through the force in a way that they can influence each other.

It's the same power used in the theory of Padme's death. The theory is that Anakin stole her energy through the force without realizing and killed her to save himself. So if they were already connected to the point Anakin could subconsciously push her into loving him he could just push that a step further and steal her life energy.

It’s theorized that palps the one that did it, iirc in EU he steals other people’s life force to stay alive already.

Cant recall the sith Holocron it came from, but there’s definitely past sith who abused it.

If it's legends material it could have deffo been Nihilus, man eats entire planets to sustain himself

Stang, it was Bane, not Palps.

I’m reading the entire legends/EU series chronologically, about 1/3 the way through right now, on The Cestus Deception. Which is during the Clone Wars.

I've heard both theories
