The Force Is Strong In These Funny Star Wars Memes

Let's be honest: Every line or frame in Starwars can be memed. Darth Vader and Boba Fett have always shared a certain bond in the hearts and minds of Star Wars fans. The Phantom Menace is one of the Star Wars films that you either loved or despised. It's May 4, which means it's the perfect time to create a Yoda-approved meme to commemorate Stars Wars Day.

If you haven't seen Star Wars VII yet, I suggest you get right to it before the movie is ruined for you with social media's outpouring of May the 4th Be With You memes. Star Wars movies have a lot of flaws. There's really no end in sight to the Star Wars prequel memes that have taken over Reddit.

Breaking meme episodes started in 2010. Seemingly fans felt this was a betrayal to the character and Jedis. And as the world continues to freak out about the latest Star Wars film released last year, along with its undying love for the original films, it makes this May 4 even more special.

In an interview in the book Star Wars and the History of Transmedia Storytelling, Will Brooker, Meme a writer of multiple books on Star Wars, reflects on the disappointing quality of the prequels, and suggests that prequel memes offer, and encourage, an ‘affectionate, ironic look back at those flawed movies'.

No matter which film or sequence of films is your favorite, Star Wars has made its mark on pop culture, from its video games to its Lego set and following video games Starting off in 1977 the original Star Wars movie, now renamed Episode IV: A New Hope has a rich collection of pop culture references, which of course generated a large number of memes.

So, a scene depicting a heartbroken Kenobi who turns off a security hologram of his pupil Anakin killing children, transforms into an annoyed Kenobi turning off a screening of The Last Jedi (2017), the Star Wars film most daring in its condemnation of Star Wars' own problematic themes, and therefore the most notorious in prequel meme circles.
