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

Other universes to visit:
Separatist systems:
Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):
!starwarstelevision@lemmy.world

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.

Holdo was a supporting character in Poe's character arch meant to play against his off the cuff tendencies. The sacrifice was meant to be a jumping point for expected growth in the final act. That isn't a plot thread cut.
It was both epic, had it's reason and thanks to force ghosts was never meant to be the end of Luke's plot.
I'm not gonna defend the Canto Bight plot as I obviously have issues with it. I would argue though that it's ultimately a plot thread that was pointless rather than one cut before its end.
Snoke was the emperor stand in from The Force Awakens, which had no original ideas of it's own. Snoke needed to die in order to tell an original story. Ben Solo was an infinitely more interesting and complexe villain to focus on. Why would any fan be upset at Snoke's death, the story was set up to be better and different until "somehow the emperor returned".
