After TFA, I was really expecting Snoke to be a Yoda sized character. Then I watched The Last Jedi and realized I should have no more expectations for the movies, which was supported by watching The Rise of Skywalker.
Yoda burning down that library was one of the best things to happen in all of Star Wars canon... Too bad it had the rest of The Last Jedi around it.
He didn't burn down the library, he burned down the tree so that Luke wouldn't find out that Rey had taken the library.
And it opened the whole plot hole of "if force ghosts can do that, why aren't they hitting Vader and Palpatine with lighting until the problem is solved?" Hell, even before it was shown that they could interact with more than just talking, why weren't they acting as the perfect spies for the ones they wanted to help instead of just showing up randomly to trickle out a tiny bit of information, argue with a master, or stare approvingly after victory?
Kinda like the whole "so this whole time, ftl jumps could have been used as a weapon? Why only that one time?"
And wtf @ light skipping? Sure, it makes for a cool looking chase scene, but just doesn't make sense on several levels. Maybe it would work if it was a force sensitive pilot who could sense the direction and timing, but even if they had done that, they went from Tatooine to Aldaran taking hours to suddenly they can almost instantly jump between a large variety of biomes all during one short chase scene.
Those movies would have been ok as their own thing IMO but were just bad star wars movie with lazy writing.
they ruined any mystique snoke had with having his origin being god damn palpypoopoo.
Maarva got it, too
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.
