12 'Star Wars' Memes To Prove The Sequels May Have Some Redeeming Qualities After All
Everyone loves prequel memes, so much so that sequel memes rarely get the love they deserve. Sure, many of us didn't like the Star Wars sequels as much as we wanted to (and some fans truly despise them). We could debate the successes and failures of the sequels for hours, but that doesn't mean they deserve to be shunned from the canon just because many people didn't like them.
They still had their fun, quotable lines that make great memes, and even though the plots may have basically been the same as the original trilogy (please don't fight me in the comments) there were plenty of moments beyond just the sacred texts that deserved to become meme formats, as well as some great new ones from the beloved series The Mandalorian, which is also considered a sequel. Here are some of the best memes to prove everything following the original trilogy belongs in meme culture as well.

I mean I personally thought it was blatantly obvious that porgs ate fish, what with their seal faces and all.

And those teeth don't sharpen themselves.

I was including those canine teeth under "seal faces", since irl seals are essentially heavily modified weasels.

"As good as the prequels."

I'm waiting for a documentary to be released to finally show exactly what went wrong with the sequels. So far I've liked Rogue One, Solo, and what I've seen of the Mandolorian but these movies seem cursed.
ConspiracyNut
Such a revelation would feel too much like a character assassination against Kathleen Kennedy, not that I say that as a bad thing.

I've got no love for her either but at the same time it's not like everything under her has been universally bad, mainly these three films. I have a hunch it was a mix of criteria set by suits(Kathleen included, but not alone) such as female protag, reversion back to empire vs rebels, Death Star 3.0, who has to live/die, etc combined with not giving a crap about the actual writing.
