Star Wars Memes

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

Technical note: if you're coming from another star system and are getting a "Subscription pending" message when trying to dock, that's just the console being slow to display the right message. The connection is already established. (Probably.)

==========

IMPORTANT

Do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

==========

Special days!

Friday and weekends: Caption contest. An image will be pinned, and we shall make captions for it and post them in the comments.

Wednesday: Theme day. We have Droids day, EU day, poem day, aliens day... Let the pinned post guide you. Memes with the theme are preferred.

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.

How about Captain Luke Skywalker of the USS Falcon?

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago

I'd watch this. I imagine he'd be like a more spiritual Picard

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Make it so!

Captain Skywalker: "Lay in a course for Toshi Station, Lieu-"

Admiral Beru: "Belay that order!"

The slow photon pierces the deflectors.

Dang, now we know why we live in the worst timeline... No Patrick Stewart Jedi... We could have had Patrick Steward in Star Wars...!!!

May the earl grey be with you

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Maybe it was down-voted because it's "AI art"?

[–] [email protected] -4 points 1 year ago

Ah, people still pissy about AI art. I hope that passes. It's a cool way for the artistically bankrupt like me to make things we imagine.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 year ago (3 children)

At least they got the bulge right.

He was staring at the blue alien women

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Remember that time, Spock built a lightsaber?

And then Kirk stole it like a lil bitch, because he wanted one too?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

He didn't steal it. He took it to give to Spock's son, who Kirk took to be raised by Spock's family on the desert world of Vulcan for safekeeping ... High ground!

Risa would love this shit.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

If by "Trekkies" they mean all the uptight people that migrated from r/startrek, it makes perfect sense.

Risa (on either site) is much more accepting.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Whoa, Risa was on Reddit? For how long? I can't believe I didn't ever come across it there.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I posted it there but it got removed and downvoted, guess cause of the AI thing

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Well that’s fair. That’s content moderation, not trekkies hating your meme.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Risa doesn't allow AI images.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This was the only normal one, he kept coming up with a light Sabre dick.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Fucking love this crossover, Master Kirk would be an ally of Qui Gon for sure lol

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

I'm a Trekkie, and I'd kiss that man.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago
[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I like that it's actually a morph of Shatner and Pine, rather than either.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Is Risa leaking?

I hope so!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Kevin would love this shit man, this is the shit

Someone get Kevin in here

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Kevin would be a Sith Lord.

Set phasers to Sabe!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

They look more badass then they ever did, I'll tell you that.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

You know you can pick the image without hand errors. They exist.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Looks pretty fucking awesome to me 🤷‍♂️

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I love it, it's like something from one of Roddenberry's rejected sci-fi pitches before he landed on Star Trek.

"May the force be... with you."
