Maaaaaan this brought me back. The original animation for this was from 2000.
The original animation in case anyone who hasn't seen it is curious.
Wow, I don't think I've ever seen the original before I thought I had linked the original
I remember these when they came out and were getting passed around on flash sites. It was maybe a couple years later that they remade the animation- my brother and a couple of our friends were so excited we all gathered around a computer to watch it together and we were all floored!
I think the one you linked is, by far, the more recognized one.
I guess it depends how old we were when these things came out. I missed out on the sharing videos from flash sites and really got on the internet and using it regularly when youtube was already a thing.
Jeez louise there's a blast from the past.
"Fett's Vette" by MC Chris is much better IMO, might even be as old?
That's a song I've not heard in a long time...
Nostaaaaaaaaalgia!
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):

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.
