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

Separatist systems:
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.

I feel the same way, but the Clone Wars animated series really changed my opinion on what Lucas was going for with Anakin's fall. The movies didn't execute on the idea all that well, but when you add in the extra background the Clone Wars added, I think it made a lot more sense.
Nah the movies didn't magically become good just because Lucas gave us homework.
I never argued the movies were good
The novelization of the third movie is also great and does a lot more to show anakins internal dilemma and psychological state.
Like, the guy was having prophetic nightmares of his wife dying night after night and one of his closest mentors (number 2 behind obiwan) offers a way to ensure those terrible visions never come to pass.
and he was fighting in a brutal war for years and was basically not sleeping at all for days when palps really started making serious moves on him. sleep depravation is serious shit and jedi or not Anakin is a human
