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

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 mean at least pick a real flaw. There's not exactly a shortage (lemmy.world)

I think what everyone is honestly mad about is that we had stories in Legends that people were attached to for many years before the movies. I think the biggest offense the movies had was bringing Palps back, which was also unpopular in the comics. My only other gripe is the end. I wanted Ben and Rey standing together, and to see them finally standing together. But that didn't happen. Other than that it was pretty classic Star Wars stuff. People are just gonna be pissed with big IPs, can't please everyone.

I was a non-Legends SW fan who did very much dislike the sequels. I think they were very wasteful with the characters. Instead of developing them and allowing them to organically create the plot, a lot of the plot was forced and the underdeveloped characters had to react to it. The Last Jedi actually did try to do some character development, but it only developed half of them while practically executing the other half. Holdo, Rose, and especially Hux were all victims
