The Best Examples Of The Star Wars Attack Of The Clones Memes Taking Over The Internet Lately

Star Wars II: Attack of the Clones was released in the spring of 2002, but like all things Star Wars, the fandom is constantly engaged with the franchise. That's why it should come as no surprise that Star Wars movies from two decades ago, as well as those from the original trilogy, continue to inspire the meme community.

Recently, you may have noticed a new meme template from Attack of the Clones popping up literally everywhere. The four-panel meme features Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala in a field, before they became lovers, discussing politics—an iconic scene that foreshadows Anakin's future transformation into Darth Vader.

Here's a little memory refresher of what inspired the latest meme trend.
