The 10 Biggest 'Star Wars' Prequel Memes And Their Meanings

Prequel memes have been a staple of online humor for years. There's something about the Star Wars prequels that we find hilarious compared to the other movies in the franchise, most likely due to the drama-filled plot lines and dialogue that feels a little too overly-formal, yet off-putting. That's not to say the prequels are bad movies, especially compared to the later ones in the series, it just means there's a lot to quote online and make great memes about.

The level of influence of prequel memes is unlike any other fandom-oriented group of memes out there. We even have prequel memes about prequel memes, like the popular format "For the better, right?" which was not directly taken from the movies. And now, we've gathered some of the most popular memes from the prequels and ranked them, along with some fun facts about their origins and influence on the fans of Star Wars. Let's take a look.

10. Ah Yes. The Negotiator
