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.

ah...you are taking this as an attack. thats why you think I'm upset. It's all stupid fun dude. Pointing out stupid shit is just part of the fun. I like the movies as much as most of the people here.
But my original point stands. Lucas always just kinda....said things. Then the fans come along and (mostly in the books that don't count anymore) worked within what he said to flesh shit out for real. Then of course the prequel trilogy came out and he made up more shit to fit with what he said before. Some neat, like making the clone wars tie into the storm troopers....some we do not speak of.
It's not an attack on your fandom and nobody is upset :)
People who just say he didn’t think of x y or z back than, kinda miss the point, he thought ahead enough to leave it open to interpretation. So yeah it kinda is an attack, when you miss the authors intentions and inject your own…
Ah....well if you take it as an attack on your fandom I'm sorry my man. Maybe just try not to take these things so seriously? It was all stupid fun that you are trying to turn serious.
Lmfao, your first comment was a literal attack on the fandom and the creator… of course you would claim that now since your knowledge was called out. Especially given something as simple as clone vs storm troopers… fucking hell…
it was a lighthearted attack. and more importantly a light hearted insult at Lucas where I praised the fandom for fixing things he did. Yet...you right now are saying you took that as an attack at the entire fandom.
Dude...seriously. Lighten up. Please? Shit, go look at ten forward. 99% of the posts we make are jokes about the worst shit like Sub Rosa. nobody freaks out. Its all just dumb fun. Hell just yesterday I made a twitter (then abandoned it because i started feeling dirty) because I thought it would be funny to @ Gates McFadden all the sub rosa memes. I was upvoted for doing this.
You can talk shit about something in a light hearted way without it being a true attack dude.
and now we wait for him to respond from the right account again lol
This person has indicated (to me) that they're not interested in continuing this debate, so please don't re-engage with them. I've also asked them to resolve issues around suspected alt accounts.
lol I didn't even want this 'debate' in the first place. no worries my man.
