Is that the one who has seven wives or whatever even though that's supposed to be not allowed?
You can see him struggling with the "they touch you, but not the other way around" rule 😅
Yes it is. Ki Adi Mundi. Possibly the worst person in the entire Jedi Order.
The deal with him having wives and kids is that Cerean males are so rare that to remove one from the gene pool would be wildly irresponsible. They make an exception, basically, so that he can attend to what is seen as a vital contribution to the survival of his people.
Unfortunately, he takes the whole "no attachments" thing very literally. He doesn't actually give a single shit about anyone in his family. To the point where they all get killed and the only way anybody even finds out it happened is when he gives Anakin a "you don't hear me crying about it, do you?" speech emphasizing how little the deaths of dozens of wives and daughters affected him.
He's an absolute trashbag of a person, but somehow he qualifies as a Master. What a fuckin' joke.
It's nice to reflect on how as a little kid I went and saw episodes 2 and 3 in theaters and thought the Jedi were so freaking cool man - then coming back to the series 20 years later having developed politics and realize the Jedi are pretty blatantly a corrupt, listless, doomed-by-its-own-inadequacy organization starting at the top.
Palpatine/fascism are the bad guys but the Jedi are certainly not the good guys, in a way that went ten miles over my head at the time lol. These movies deserve more credit imo
"Starting at the top" is especially true. I would argue that most if not all of the failures of the late-Republic Jedi can be laid entirely at Yoda's feet.
The whol “no attachments” thing. Ironically the whole concept of the force is being attached, to everything.
I dont get it.
This doesn't happen in the movie, but the joke is about a version where Anakin takes the seat that's already occupied by a hologram. It's as if he's sitting in his lap. It's just silly.
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.
