Goddamnit. They killed a decent big guy, he coulda become Bane, he burnt out. A bright star.
Best part of the movie, tho
It was never a 'meme'. It was meant for Facebook normies.
>>64263739

It feels so good when a "/tv/ meme" (not really) is co-opted by the larger public, god seeing these dumb memey fucks cringe when they realize they share the same opinions with the rest of twitter and tumblr is just so tasty.
/TV/ ON SUICIDE WATCH

TRAITOR
He didn't say enough or do anything weird enough to produce a quality meme
The meme isn't dead, it's bigger than ever now that the normies have it
It'll almost certainly lead to him being in the next movie or getting a spin off in the new EU
Great job /tv/, you played right into JJ's hand again
>>64264221
>implying that "normie" wasnt a /tv/ poster
If there's a material in SW that repels lasers, why the fuck won't they cover literally everything in it? Cover TIE-fighters in this shit, your move Resistance

props to the guy for doing choreography in full suit and not just the helmet.
>>64264633
>make sure to only go for wide swings with a weapon that does not require any momentum to be effective
Logically lightsabers should be fought with as rapiers
>>64264669
>being this ignorant about lightsaber physics
>not knowing activated lightsabers are heavy as fuck
Way to embarrass yourself fuckstick, go crawl back to /k/.
>>64264738
Not that guy but can you provide a source? I'm remember hearing about that way back but can't find a source.
>>64264738
Yeah, don't give me that stupid EU shit. In OT Luke swings that crap like its weightless, messing imperial walkers, both Vader and Kylo Ren mostly one-hand it, there's absolutely no advantage in swinging.

>Bringing the lightsaber to life in the Star Wars films was an organic process. Originally, Lucas's vision was that a lightsaber should be an extremely heavy weapon, at least 40 or 50 pounds, that required two-hands to lift. This is why all of the lightsaber duels in Star Wars are two-handed affairs. Over time, though, Lucas realized that he needed a way to show that Luke Skywalker was getting to be more proficient as a sword fighter, so the lightsabers became conceptually lighter, capable of being wielded with one hand.

Not sure that's the best source but yeah. They started off as two-handers and then developed into bastard swords. Prequels use wishy-washy weightless swords though.
/fmg/ - failed memes general
>>64264996
Thanks for the clarification
>>64264669
in a new hope they do seem to fight like like they're weightless. then in empire and return of the jedi luke swings it like a baseball bat.
>>64264924
Even if they do have weight, what does it change? You only need to touch the enemy to hurt them, and thrusting attacks are considerably harder to block compared to swings
>>64265219
if it's so easy, why don't you become a jedi?
>>64265219
thrusting can leave you vulnerable in some situations
>>64264924
So the tiny-ass hilt was supposed to weigh 40-50 lbs? BRAVO LUCAS
>>64265368
no, the blade
star wars is literally 90% space magic what the heck is so hard to understand about this
>>64264669
They're space katanas.

No idea if it's canon or not, but an interesting read.

Most forced meme of 2015
>>64263739
started off good, but then Reddit happened
>never see pepe or other "normie shit" on Facebook ever
>already see someone post a TR-8R link
Shit sucks, I liked this meme too.
>>64263794
This, basically. I really wanted to love this and see it take off, but it's really nothing there. It was stillborn.
Yep
>>64263739
Is that a cordless Dyson?
>>64264738
Even if they are for some reason heavy as fuck doesnt mean you need to do wide swings with them you neckbearded autist.
