Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.
==========
Other universes to visit:
Separatist systems:
Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):
!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:
-
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.

I'm not going to blame the performances on the actors here because...look at the material they were given. Obi Wan's character was "also there tagging along." It really should have been Qui Gon sitting on the ship, meditating, being wise and occasionally offering advice to Obi Wan, a somewhat headstrong young man who has very nearly completed his apprenticeship and will soon test for the rank of Knight. Instead of...sitting on the ship doing mostly nothing while the old gummer goes on all the adventures. In Ep 1 especially, Padme has basically no personality. In the Queen makeup, she's monotone and officious, out of makeup she...is like 14.7% stuck up, 9% a girl, 76.3% staring into space. What was Natalie Portman supposed to DO with this role? We're told she's "young and naive" but she does basically nothing of her own volition that demonstrates naivete.
