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.

In Empire Strikes Back, a guy shows up on camera for maybe a second or two carrying what appears to be an ice cream maker. He now has his own backstory as Willrow Hood and it turns out it was a computer memory core that he was hiding away for the Rebel Alliance. Any character, no matter how small in any of the films had to have an elaborate backstory added, because people were so desperate for new Star Wars stuff in the time between the OT and the Prequels.

oh would i love to see a Willrow Hood movie with like a Terry Crews running around Cloud City with an ice cream maker because of a misunderstanding with Lando, written by Larry David. And the sound track would have a baseline that would make Kaja Googoo blush.

OMG! If I owned a studio I would geen light that in a heartbeat. Unfortunately, all I own is 1978 Ford Econoline van with shag carpet and captain seats. I might be willing to trade it for the right studio, though. My DMs are open for any offers.

A new 8 part series, exclusive to Disney+.

Christ I hope the Rick and Morty writers don't read this.

"After the Rebels' victory, Hood decided to take it easy."

I love it.
