A new Star Wars movie means a few things: Merchandise, fan speculation and memes. If there's a new image or video that hints at anything involving a galaxy far, far away, you don't need the force to tell you that fans will be meme-ing.

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is no exception. Earlier this week, at Disney's D23 expo, J.J. Abrams and his marketing wizards released a flood of new materials in the form of a new trailer and poster for the upcoming film. While some fans dove into the appearance of Dark Rey and Red Eyed C-3PO, others focused on the film's new colorful poster, which got a round of parodies much like the last time this happened.


Meme-ready fans don't need any more excuses to dunk on a Star Wars movie, but the inclusion of Emperor Palpatine aka The Senate aka the teller of The Tragedy of Darth Plagueis The Wise, makes it a certainty.

They didn't disappoint. Check out some of the best memes based on the new Rise of Skywalker posters:

In a vacuum, that's poster is really visually striking. I dont hate it to the extent I think I'm expected to.

To return to the larger topic, bringing back the Emperor is a transparently fucking desperate move and this movie is totally gonna suck shit. At this point our best quasi realistic odds are if it follows RLM's "fuck it" theory and completely loses it's mind.
