About
Space Movie 1992 refers to a series of Don't Google memes ironically encouraging and discouraging people from searching for "space movie 1992" or "what space movie came out in 1992," with the top search result being the IMDB page for the movie Gayniggers from Outer Space. The memes, mostly consisting of image macros discouraging people from searching the term, first started to spread in October 2020, continuing to spread throughout 2021 and beyond.
Origin
Searching "space movie 1992" and related terms results in a number of websites, including the IMDB[2] page, for the 1992 blaxploitation short film Gayniggers from Outer Space, a sci-fi parody movie about a group of gay Black men from the planet Anus who go to earth to liberate men from the oppression of women with the goal of spreading homosexuality to all the men of earth (trailer shown below).
On October 19th, 2020, Instagram[1] page mecchaa.memes posted a meme using the Walter White Breaks Down format captioned, "Me after looking up the name of the space movie made in the year 1992," gaining over 11,500 likes in just over a year (shown below).
Spread
The meme inspired variations over the course of the following days, increasing over the next several months. For example, on October 20th, 2020, Instagram[3] page the.obvious.commenter posted a staring cat meme with a similar caption, gaining over 1,000 likes in just over a year (shown below).
The meme persisted throughout 2021. On April 5th, 2021, Instagram[4] page sheenflextevez posted a version of the meme, gaining over 2,200 likes in a year (shown below, left).
