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.

To the ketamine cave, I go.

He was fine until Luke got there and started asking too many questions. Like any parent.

He farted and fucking died?

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

He bore down too much and farted something out that's supposed to stay in. Fucking ketamine.

A 2001 Honda Civic, I must steal.

Disappointed in me, Allah is.

Yoda: Won, you did? Dead, Anakin is? Thought not, you hypocrite. Don't talk to me again unless you're dead.

Force Ghost Organa after Alderaan blows up: "I'm haunting you until you die you little green asshole lol."

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago (2 children)

He doesn't get to be a force ghost because he isn't a Jedi.

[–] approxamatrix@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

He becomes one anyways out of spite

He's Jimmy Smits, he gets to do whatever he wants.

I know this is a meme, but I always considered Yoda as winning the fight, but without enough left to fight off any reinforcements, being thus unable to finish the job. Winning the battle but losing the war, etc.

[–] polonius-rex@kbin.run 34 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (2 children)

killing palpatine there would've been winning the war, even if yoda perished as a consequence

i feel like yoda would've been "enlightened" enough to sacrifice himself for the sake of the galaxy if that was an option on the cards for him

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 18 points 5 months ago

Who would guard the ketamine cave then

[–] mryessir@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Wtf guys. Yoda literally found the way to cheat death and preserve knowledge. That is the entire plot twist I believed up until now?!

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 9 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (2 children)

Qui-Gon did that, and taught it to Obi-Wan with ghost powers.

I think? Or did Qui-Gon teach it to Yoda with Ghost Powers, and then Yoda just taught it normally...

[–] TheFool@infosec.pub 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yoda learns from Qui-Gon in the Clone Wars but how the others learn isn’t clear as far as I know

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

He tells Obi-Wan at the end of RotS and gives him homework.

Honestly, even before the prequels I thought Alec Guinness looking up into the air every now and then in ANH was him listening to some spirit or the Force or so.

[–] assassin_aragorn@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

I think it is actually canon now that he sometimes talked with Qui Gon. Before he leaves Tatooine to go save Leia, Qui Gon says something like "see you soon", and Obi Wan goes "huh that was weird for him say"

[–] mryessir@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 5 months ago

I believed that both have been teached by yoda.

Plus, a Sith - someday kills his master. With yoda already knowing whos about to emerge... Ouh man, the predisney saga was awesomeee

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 25 points 5 months ago

He got thrown to the floor then crawled away. I don't consider that winning.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Winning the battle but losing the war, etc.

That was a theme of the prequel series, so it certainly fits. But I feel like its too cheeky by half. Like Lucas felt as though he had something to prove by making all the original named Jedi nigh unstoppable juggernauts, right up until the end. Palpatine's a badass dude. It's okay for him to be a bit scarier than Dooku.

Probably the most missed opportunity in that final movie was Anakin just stabbing Mace Windu in the back, rather than going full Darth Vader Ultra-Instinct mode and overpowering him with his Sith hate. That last fight with Obi-Wan really missed a beat, too. Imagine Anakin using his unleashed Force powers to summon a massive lava wave direct at Obi, only for him to dodge and Anakin to be peppered with globs of lava splatter in the backwash. Also would have been a great opportunity to end Padme, with Obi-Wan caught between rescuing the lava-splattered love-struck innocent Senator or his wicked apprentice, only to lose them both.

So many quality dramatic scenes squandered. sigh

Like Grover, do I sound!

Ketamine high fading, mine is. Retreat to dealer, I must.
