** ''"Hello."''/''"Goodbye."'' [[labelnote:Explanation (SPOILERS)]] When the Grand Inquisitor comes to Vader's aid in Part V, he greets Reva with this line rather condescendingly. He and Vader then leave Reva to her fate, parting with an equally mocking "goodbye" in return. The way in which it's framed almost makes it look like a GameOver screen in a ''[[VideoGame/BatmanArkhamAsylum Batman: Arkham]]'' games, so it's little wonder why people got attached to it rather quickly.

* Obi-Wan became an [[WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender Earthbender]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]One of Obi-Wan's attacks in "Part VI"'s final duel consists of him levitating several rocks and hurling them at Darth Vader. ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'' comparisons were immediately made.[[/labelnote]]

* Wade, the Path member who gets killed in "Part IV", has had many fans jokingly mourning him and claiming he was their favourite character due to his lack of characterisation and blatant RedShirt status.

* "[[ArmorPiercingQuestion Like you trained his father?]]"[[labelnote:Explanation]]The second trailer had Owen demand Obi-Wan stay away from Luke. The Jedi Master retorts that Luke would need to be trained [[Film/ANewHope when the time comes]], but Owen says this line that makes Obi-Wan take pause. Cue the internet making numerous jokes about how Owen had dissed Kenobi in a cruel, but [[JerkassHasAPoint not entirely untrue]] way.[[/labelnote]] This meme has additionally evolved into Owen similarly roasting other characters. For example:

* The fact that Obi-Wan still looks [[OlderThanTheyLook quite a bit younger than his age]] despite being only ten years away from the first film where he is completely white-haired has caused some to joke that dealing with Anakin again will cause him to age drastically over the course of the series. A variation is now having to deal with [[AdorablyPrecociousChild Leia]], who has [[LikeFatherLikeSon the traits of Padmé and Anakin]] that stressed him out, is what will do it.

* No need to watch the Prequels now.[[labelnote:Explanation]]The first episode of the show gives a 4-minute recap of the three prequel films. Given their divisive nature, quite a few watchers have joked that no one has to watch the prequels now, they can just watch the recap.[[/labelnote]]
* ''VideoGame/MetalGear Kenobi''.[[labelnote:Explanation]]Part IV had Obi-Wan infiltrating and sneaking around Fortress Inquisitorius in a manner that reminded several people of the ''Metal Gear'' games. He even enters the Fortress by way of swimming, much like how Solid Snake entered Shadow Moses the same way in the intro to ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid''.[[/labelnote]]

* As the hype for the series built up, there was a resurgence of [[Film/RevengeOfTheSith "Hello there!"]]. [[spoiler:Obi-Wan himself says exactly that during Part VI when greeting a young Luke.]]
