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.

Hold up. I never thought about it until just now, but aren't Sith Lords basically supervillain caliber ninjas, in addition to being space wizards? How was Vader able to just pick him up and yeet him down that shaft? Couldn't the Emperor have done like a double backflip with a triple gainer and then been like "AHA! Nice try, but foolish." *Lightning bolts in your eyeballs! "Muahaha!". Seriously? Why did he act like a helpless old man during that scene other than plot armor?
i mean wasn't he like 90 by that time? all that force zapping at that age really takes it out of ya probably
And yet he somehow returned. Like 20 years later.
My head canon is that Palps shocked himself too when Vader “crossed the streams” by picking him up.
Plus he knew the Star Wars truth that falling down into a hole is a sure fire way to survive.
