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

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.

cute, i chuckled.
TLJ is second only to ESB in the saga.
Interesting perspective. Can’t tell if that makes you a fan of the last Jedi or have a low opinion of Star Wars in general.
In the near decade since TLJ premiered I’ve litigated my problems with it countless times but it’s probably the best movie in the sequel trilogy. Personally I’d rank The Force Awakens as the better Star Wars movie. Despite it being a basic rehash of the high points of various parts of ANH and the saga, it at least wasn’t a tonal miss like TLJ or a series killing stinker like Rise of Skywalker.
My rankings go ESB > RotJ > RotS > ANH > TPM > TFA > AotC > TLJ > RoS
obvi i disagree on the tonal miss, but we can all come together to lament TRoS.
for me, TFA is a better movie than both TPM and AotC, but as you said, it is completely a rehash. JJ's ST movies completely fail in originality compared to the PT. only TLJ actually tried to spin out something new for the universe.
If the authors followed the rejection of the entire main story-line by rejecting the main characters and making something really different, it would be better. (Keeping Yoda was fine, though.)
I didn't want something different. I like Star Wars. I wanted more Star Wars building on the universe. If you don't like Star Wars watch something else. The entire sequel trilogy sucks ass. They had a fuckton of EU material to draw on and we got shit.
