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

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.

There's a subreddit called "Watch it for the plot," but the plot refers to the woman's .... huge tracts of land.
Yes, I know the joke isn't original but my wife commented on her butt and then I saw this theme so
"The plot thickens..."
*watch it for the pilot
The ahem big ace.
What do you call booty shorts but for your head booty?
But why do all Twi'lek in the new Disney shows have such short and rigid lekku, compared to the movies?
Mostly practical reasons probably. In the movies, Twi‘lek were background characters. Visible for a few scenes each with not much to do.
Now you have characters who are on screen and therefore on set for a lot longer and have to do more action scenes. Having long and wobbly lekku would be pretty exhausting for the actors and in the worst case they‘d get in the way so much that they would have to reshoot scenes until they behave as expected.
Costuming department couldn't be arsed. Same reason Ahsoka still has the montrals of a 14-year-old even though adult Togruta are supposed to have them, like, down to their knees or something.
...
Maybe I should watch the series.
Cake!
