Star Wars Memes

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

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:

  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.

Your breaking up with me aren't you?

Why would you say that?

because you're dressing like that

Oh Anakin I forgot you have a Clown fetish, let me dress in something more sexy.

The queen mindset is so ingrained in her that she makes time to switch clothes six times a day. With appropriate clothes for every occasion.

or it's the director's mindset that women should behave this way

Fisher explained that Lucas informed her, “In space you get weightless, and so your flesh expands.” In this scenario, he was convinced that a bra wouldn’t expand along with the skin. So, in the end, a woman like Leia could wind up being strangled by her own brassiere.

I'm sorry George, but what made you think that? That's not even considering that all the ships in Star Wars seem to have artificial gravity anyway...

I 100% clicked on that link expecting it to be a TVTropes rabbit hole... I'm actually a little disappointed.

peculiar, what difference would it even make?

There would be fewer VHS copies of Star Wars which mysteriously wore out at the trash compactor scene.

George Lucas was notoriously ambivalent and dismissive towards the EU. The one character he was super stoked to get into his version of the sequels?

Darth Talon. IYKYK, otherwise do a quick search once you're not at the office.

My man has some issues to sort out, or maybe he already has, and he has some specific kinks he wants to evangelize.

Nerds being horny? Unheard

He also quite famously told Carrie Fisher that she couldn’t wear a bra…

Well, then there's the Indiana Jones brainstorming session with Steven Spielberg and Lawrence Kasdan.

G — He’s thirty-five, and he knew her ten years ago when he was twenty-five and she was only twelve.

G — It would be amusing to make her slightly young at the time. S — And promiscuous. She came onto him.

G — Fifteen is right on the edge. I know it’s an outrageous idea, but it is interesting. Once she’s sixteen or seventeen it’s not interesting anymore. But if she was fifteen and he was twenty-five and they actually had an affair the last time they met. And she was madly in love with him and he…

I guess by the time the movie gets made, between script changes and casting decisions, nothing is certain and 17-22 is probably most likely, but George is a product of his time and place, and not exclusively in good ways.

At the end of Episode 2 Padmé gets more and more revealing clothes. First she loses her poncho and then her jumpsuit gets torn to reveal her midriff.

At the time I thought it was a clever reference to the same happening to Sigourney Weaver in Galaxy Quest. Now I'm not so sure.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 day ago

Pretty sure Galaxy Quest was poking fun at the trope while Star Wars was more just doing the trope unironically.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Woah. She's like a female version of Darth Maul, but without any clothes on.

Kinda badass, NGL

Scrolling around on her Wookieepedia article I'm most entertained by the fact that they designed this comic book character to go around mostly naked in horny fanservice poses while giving her elaborate full-body tattoos that no two artists would ever be able to draw the same.

"So my vision for the series is that it's just a fun kid's show. Also Leia in a tiny metal bikini."

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

"Also very important for family entertainment reasons that the slave lady Leia replaces had her boobs literally out of her skimpy costume and flopping around when she got murdered."

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

To be fair, I guess I did pause that scene a bunch as a child.

Gawd-Dayum!
