You Star Wars fans sure are a contentious people.
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):
!starwarstelevision@lemmy.world

IMPORTANT
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.
You're not a star wars fan until you HATE star wars.
(Although we finally got something good. Andor)
i hate the parts of star wars disney ruined. there's a clear difference for me. pre- and post-disney star wars are completely different in terms of cohesiveness, even if the original lore was flimsy.
Episodes 7-9 were just a dumpster fire. No cohesion, no real plot. I blame everything on kathleen kenedy... holy hell i wish disney would replace her.
You just made an enemy for life!
Every Fandom has its cringe.
Some people take it way too seriously and end up alienating potential audiences.
Just look at Rick and morty. It's a decent comedy if you're into crass humor. I'll admit I have seen most seasons. But you'll never see me wearing merch because I simply don't want to be associated with the crowd who scream at fast food employees over meme sauce. I happily wear my live long and prosper shirt or the Mando shorts my wife bought me though.
Some fandoms just take a little more digging to find the super shitty people.
WUBBA LUBBA DUB DUB!!!
same with MHA. liked the show, but the fandom is on another level of cringe. i do recommend it to people, but i won't make it obvious that i really like it and have also read the manga.
Star Wars fans did not ruin Star Wars. George Lucas' complete lack of people who could say no to him ruined Star Wars.
No. Both.
People complain about Rise of Skywalker, quite rightly, but only half of that is the studios fault. The other half falls squarely on the fans for responding with such intense burning hatred, and no positivity, to everything that came before that the studio had no idea what the fuck to do. They messed up catastrophically, and didn't always make good decisions, but the fans are equally responsible for being so insanely hateful and toxic.
Greed and Hubris!
What I think is ironic is that Star wars also has the silliest lore (which I like, I think it allows it to be more fun and creative), so when the fandom fights about it it's over totally ridiculous stuff.
I love having this username on this instance. I punch myself regularly.
I assume they're also a regular on c/mycology but I don't want to check because I'd be super disappointed if they're not.
But I'm a fan of Star Wars, LotR, and Harry Potter.
Have you considered you hate yourself?
I do
Speaking as a star trek fan, fight me.
Wait... Oh no
I will never not dump Auralnauts..
Star Wars Saga: Ep. 1 - Jedi Party
Star Wars: Bass Wars Obi vs DJango
Dirk Lasermaster: The Last Laser Master
Fresh drop!
I love Auralnauts so much! Aside from the Star Wars stuff, I really like Fictional Fight Commentary and the infomercial stuff.
"Oh my! Some kind of green gas is coming out of the shell, and it's like kryptonite on Superman!"
But mostly, I am such a massive fan (MASSIVE FAN) of their music. Their mixing is sublime, and their music sounds like what I've tried producing my whole life. I'm old, I saw Daft Punk in 97 on a small stage, Prodigy were my last Laser Masters, but Auralnauts fill that void now. There is not a single tune of theirs that don't get me beatboxing and start dancing.... :) <3

Star wars ruined star wars
To adapt an asian proverb:
Me against Star Trek fans, me and Star Trek fans against LOTR fans, me and Star Trek fans and LOTR fans against the world.
I'm not even into star wars but star wars fans ruined star wars for me. Ahmed best is my liiiiiiiiiiiife.
