History Memes / RevengeOfTheSith

** Did you ever hear the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise? [[labelnote:Explanation]]The entire monologue is making the rounds of the internet to mock some of the more ridiculous Snoke theories, especially ones like Snoke being Plagueis, Vader, or Jar Jar. However,
it has since evolved into a general copypasta.[[/labelnote]]

** "Ah, General [insert word that rhymes with "Kenobi"].

* "I have seen a security hologram of him ... ''killing younglings!''" [[labelnote:Explanation]] Supposedly, Ewan [=McGregor=] can be seen visibly [[{{Corpsing}} trying not to laugh]] when he says that line, [[{{Narm}} even though it's supposed to be one of the most dramatic moments]] in ''Revenge of the Sith''. Because of that, the quote became unexpectedly popular, and it's often cited by fans as the point when even Ewan [=McGregor=] -- widely considered to have given one of the best performances in the Prequel Trilogy -- couldn't take Lucas' dialogue seriously anymore.[[/labelnote]]

[[caption-width-right:350:Hi Senate, how are you?]]

* * Very much every line spoken by Palpatine in this movie becomes memes of varying popularity

* Vader's [[BigNo "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"]] has since been used as a way (mostly in jest) to show great disapproval over things on forums and message boards.
** The NO part also spawned a different famous meme thanks to a [[JustForFun/BackStrokeOfTheWest cheap Chinese bootleg of the movie]] having horribly translated subtitles in English. During the scene the "no" was translated as "Do not want!" which quickly became a reaction comment towards unwanted things or gross images.
* Anakin's PreAssKickingOneLiner in the opening battle: "This is where the fun begins." Also a CallForward to Han Solo saying the same thing in the original.
* At one point during the duel with Dooku, Palpatine nonsensically yells something like, "GET-" as though he's [[BadBadActing (badly)]] pretending to cheer on the Jedi.
* When Anakin has Count Dooku at his mercy, Palpatine implores Anakin to kill him in a very forceful way, specifically using the phrase "DO IT!" fiercely. After WebVideo/GameGrumps made fun of the scene (showcased [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AX7AIvIhiZ0 through]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Em1E1KSVeyw these]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7k6ERdzWsc4 videos]]), it's hard for one to take it seriously.
* General Grievous's boast, "Your lightsabers will make a ''fine'' addition to my collection." Followed by him opening his cloak to reveal only ''one'' lightsaber, making him look like rather a novice collector.
* Just about anything Obi Wan says

** Obi-Wan's one-liner after crashing Grievous's ship: "Another happy landing."
** Obi Wan's line "Oh, I don't think so."

* "Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?" If you follow ''any'' Star Wars-themed pages on Facebook, you will have heard it a thousand times by now.

* When Windu tells Palpatine that he is to be taken before the Senate, Palpatine retorts, "I ''am'' the Senate!" Which led to jokes about Palpatine's first name being "the Senate."

* "You were the chosen one!", usually in rage comics to show betrayal but full variations of the quotation have been [[http://i.qkme.me/35mk3y.jpg made]].
* "I HATE YOU! GIVE MY LIGHTSABER TO MY SON AND TELL HIM DARTH VADER KILLED ME!"[[note]]In ''Film/ANewHope'', Obi-Wan tells Luke ({{from a certain point of view}}) that Darth Vader killed his father. He also gives Anakin's Lightsaber to Luke, claiming that Anakin wanted Luke to have it. ''Nothing'' in this movie suggests any such thing, and Anakin's last words to Obi-Wan are nothing but "I hate you!" And of course, by the time of ''A New Hope'', Anakin and Vader were meant to be separated persons until it was {{retcon}}ned.[[/note]]

**

* Obi-Wan's one-liner after crashing Grievous's ship: "Another happy landing."
* "Chancellor, Sith Lords are our specialty." *proceeds to get KO'd only minutes into a fight with said Sith Lord*

* "It's over, Anakin. I have the high ground." ItMakesSenseInContext, but it sounds silly anyway.
** Also because some like to note that it's odd for Obi-Wan of all people to say this, since he himself overcame this disadvantage against Darth Maul in ''The Phantom Menace''. Though, to be fair, Obi-Wan was smart enough to exploit his advantage, whereas Maul wasn't.
** Anakin's reply: [[EvilIsHammy "YOU UNDERESTIMATE MY POWER!!"]]

* "Chancellor, Sith Lords are our specialty." *proceeds to get KO'd only minuets into a fight with said Sith Lord*

* "Chancellor, Sith Lords are our specialty." *proceeds to get KO'd only minuets in the fight by one.(

* Obi-Wan's one-liner after crashing Grievous's ship: "Another happy landing."

* Palpatine follows this up with the line, [[PreAssKickingOneLiner "It's treason, then."]] Followed by him screeching (or gargling) as he leaps over his desk towards the Jedi, sounding rather like he has heartburn.

* "From my point of view, SAND IS THE EVIL!"[[note]][[NeverLiveItDown Anakin hates]] [[Film/AttackOfTheClones sand.]][[/note]]

In general, ''Revenge of the Sith'' is likely ''the'' memeiest of all ''Star Wars'' films, especially after the massive surge the memes had in early 2017, to the point that an [[https://www.reddit.com/r/PrequelMemes/ entire subreddit]] was created just for them.

* "''I am the senate!''" Which led to jokes about Palpatine's first name being "the Senate."
* "It's treason then." Followed by him screeching as he leaps towards the Jedi, sounding rather like he has heartburn.

* The NO part also spawned a different famous meme thanks to a [[JustForFun/BackStrokeOfTheWest cheap Chinese bootleg of the movie]] having horribly translated subtitles in English. During the scene the "no" was translated as "Do not want!" which quickly became a reaction comment towards unwanted things or gross images.
* "Only a Sith deals in absolutes." Ignoring the fact that this very line ''is'' an absolute. "Only a Sith is so extremist," the less incoherent variation used in the European Spanish dub, was used for a long time in Spain in lighthearted political debates to point out a sign of ideological zealotry.
* "You were the chosen one!", usually in rage comics to show betrayal but full variations of the quotation have been [[http://i.qkme.me/35mk3y.jpg made]].
* "It's over, Anakin. I have the high ground." ItMakesSenseInContext, but it sounds silly anyway.

** "You underestimate my power!!!"
* Palpatine's NewEraSpeech establishing TheEmpire, of a sort. Go on any Website/YouTube video of it. [[DrinkingGame Take a shot for every comment comparing some politician/speech to Palpatine/the speech]]. You'll develop alcohol poisoning before the night's out.
* "Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?" If you follow ''any'' Star Wars-themed pages on Facebook, you will have heard it a thousand times by now.
* '''[[EvilIsHammy Palpatine]]''': POOOOOWWWWWAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH! UUNNNLIMITEDDDD POOOOOOOOWWWWWWWAAAHHH!

* "Anakin... you're breaking my heart!"

* "I HATE YOU! GIVE MY LIGHTSABER TO MY SON AND TELL HIM DARTH VADER KILLED ME!"[[note]]In ''Film/ANewHope'', Obi-Wan tells Luke ({{from a certain point of view}}) that Darth Vader killed his father.
