    Honestly the original scene was real shit. Obi-Wan is Qui-Gon’s apprentice, he’s not about to point out how Qui-Gon’s plan is just bad.

    Would then being Jedi mean they could sense when the cards are about to change values?

    Qui-Gon: Credits will do fine. [while attempting a mind trick]

    Watto: No, they won’t.

    Qui-Gon: Credits WILL do fine.

    Watto: No, they won’t.

    Qui-Gon: [Walks down street to money exchanger] Trade me these credits for Hutt bucks [Does mind trick]

    Money Exchanger: Okay!

    [Qui-Gon returns to Watto]

    Qui-Gon: Here’s a pile of Hutt bucks. Sell me a functional hyperdrive.

    Watto: Okay!

    [Roll credits]

      The thing with the Jedi mind trick is that only Jedi’s think it works.

      Everyone else just see a scary lightsaber guy asking them to repeat a sentence and are more than happy to comply if it means they get left alone.

      There’s a limit to how much you can pretend though.

      • Letting an old man and a kid drive through a checkpoint? Fine, someone else’s problem.

      • Handing over all your life savings for a bad deal? Uh, no actually.

    Yes, because the Hutts would be totally cool with a couple of Jedi rolling up to their gambling dens and blatantly cheating for several hours. Screwing over one random used car salesman on a single bet is much easier to get away with.

    Not to mention the whole “he could be the chosen one” angle, at which point freeing Anakin was just as important to Qui-Gon as getting off-planet.

    …Me? Overthinking a silly meme? Noooo…

      Qui-Gon is gambling at much higher stakes, placing the fate of the entire future of the galaxy into the hands of that boy, who Yoda had strongly recommended against being trained. So it’s not that Qui-Gon was against Obi-Wan wanting to gamble, he just wanted him to significantly up his game:-).

    On a scale of 1 to 10, how much space-weed do you reckon Qui-Gon Jinn smokes in a given day?

            I believe he could be the stoner of legend, that he is the one who will finally bring balance to the clouds with the perfect THC/CBD ratio.

    Child endangerment is the Jedi way.

    That’s why they are given laser swords that can cut through anything at age six!

      You want those younglings to be defenseless against the Jedi that kill them with their laser sword?

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:

  1. 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.

  2. We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.

  3. 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!

  4. 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.

  5. 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).

  6. 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.

  7. Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.
