It's normal to see memes coming out of popular streaming TV shows like The Mandalorian, or huge movies like Avengers: Endgame. It's not as usual to see memes about serious black-and-white historical dramas. Why, then, has Netflix's new movie Mank become so popular online? There are two clear reasons. One is its subject matter, telling the story of how a Hollywood legend became a crucial part in creating Citizen Kane, frequently called the greatest movie ever made and one of the oldest meme formats for source material.

The other reason? "Mank" is a funny word, and it gets funnier every time you say it. A Mank meme is only one letter away from a dank meme, after all, and that takes it the rest of the way. Enjoy the dankest, Mankest memes we have below.
