The Star Wars original trilogy gave us characters with whom we share a connection. Yoda, a short green goblin, speaks irregularly and in short fragments. In the Empire Strike Back, Yoda said: “Wars not make one great” instead of "wars do not make one great." Yoda's sentences are often short and challenging to understand, but are filled with wisdom. Apparently, he is also meme-worthy.
It was brilliant of Disney to include Yoda in the recently released Star Wars: The Last Jedi. The Last Jedi contained more action sequences than its predecessor and a scene with Yoda which had a dramatic effect on the story. Beware of one meme description on this list. It reveals a small Star Wars: The Last Jedi spoiler. Before the section where the spoiler appears, it says "Spoiler Alert," so you won't accidentally read it. Hopefully, by now, everyone has seen Star Wars: The Last Jedi; it is a worthy addition to Star Wars.
Yoda is one of the most influential characters in Star Wars because of his Jedi mastery, battle meditation, and vital foresight. Luke Skywalker would never have become a Jedi and would likely have turned to the dark side if it weren't for Yoda. The memes you are about to read can be filled with wisdom, satire, and even be cheesy at times. We compiled a list of some of the funniest Yoda memes on the internet. We hope you enjoy reading 25 Hilarious Yoda Memes You Never Saw Coming!
25 What Is The Millenium Falcon?
It's not surprising why this meme made this list containing the most hilarious Yoda memes. Without a doubt, if Yoda appeared on Jeopardy, we would finally figure out if Yoda has a speech impediment or if he chooses to speak in riddles. Alex Trebek is strict in regards to Jeopardy rules, and Yoda wouldn't last on the show.
This light freighter "made the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs."
While on the Jedi Council and speaking to other Jedi in private conversations we can hear Yoda speaking some jargon that is supposedly English. Yoda is intelligent, we know this, but he is not gifted in the English language. Maybe if Yoda used the force, he would be able to summon the power of proper grammar.
24 Yoda Finds A Kindred Spirit
The similarities between Yoda's speech patterns and sentences contained in Dr. Seuss' books are uncanny. A line of Dr. Seuss' Green Eggs and Ham says: "You do not like them. So you say. Try them! Try them! And you may. Try them and you may, I say.” Lines such as these are interchangeable as Yoda dialogue. Both Yoda and Dr. Seuss speaking in a fragmented English language that has whimsical qualities.
Would Yoda be a more effective character if he was given proper English language dialogue? Most likely not. By giving Yoda a unique style of speaking, we think more about what he is saying, and his words seem to have more magnitude. Also, who didn't notice that Yoda is a splitting resemblance of the Grinch? Yoda and the Grinch steal Star Wars Day? We never did find out about Yoda's origins.
23 Only A Sith Would Reveal Star Wars Spoilers
Is there anything worse than revealing Star Wars spoilers? Common internet etiquette dictates that any page or video that contains movie spoilers should be tagged with the word "spoilers" in several places. An internet page or video can never go overboard on spoiler warning tags because even if they save one person from viewing spoilers, they've done a noble service.
Revealing Star Wars spoilers is a path to the dark side.
Having Yoda as a friend would be an honor. Why would anyone want to reveal spoilers to our little green friend? No matter where you are in the galaxy, revealing spoilers is never okay. People wait years to see a Star Wars movie and often see them multiple times in theatres. Hilarious meme, and we agree with everything it stands for.
22 These Are The Things Yoda Wonders About On Dagobah
It was an epic defining moment in Star Wars when Luke Skywalker was assailed by a wampa ice creature on the icy planet of Hoth. The weather Luke encountered was far too extreme for even a Jedi to be caught in.
Weak with the jokes, Yoda is.
This meme makes a joke about how Han Solo sliced a Tauntaun with Luke's lightsaber then put Luke inside to keep him warm. "Inside a tauntaun, how warm is it?" Yoda asks. "Lukewarm," he explains. Yoda makes a pun that describes how warm it is inside a tauntaun, but also references that Luke Skywalker was inside the tauntaun. Very funny Yoda. It's not like we haven't heard this joke before!
21 Strong With The Force Yoda Is. Gigantic He Is Not
Marvel's Hulk meets Yoda in this morphing meme. The creator of this meme couldn't have chosen two more unlike characters. Jedi are selfless and are compassionate, peaceful beings. Hulk will smash anything in his way and is fueled by enormous anger. If Yoda and Hulk had a love child someone needs to tell us because we are already mind-boggled.
The best lightsaber duelist Yoda is not, very green he is.
Yoda deciding to go into Hulk mode would right away make him a Sith. With an oversized lightsaber in his hand, Hulk Yoda is capable of destruction we wouldn't dream of. Hulk Yoda would be like General Grievous except larger, faster, and more green!
20 Ignorance Is Bliss
The satirical nature of this meme makes it perfectly fitting for this Yoda meme list. Has Yoda ever made a comment this wise before? Yes, he has... several times. This anecdote was spot on with its message and nailed it as a meme. Yoda is wise beyond his years even if he is over 900 years old.
Beware your ex's Facebook page. Not even the force can save you if you do.
If you didn't already know, this meme is based on a Star Wars scene in which Yoda warns Obi-Wan Kenobi no to look into the security recordings because there, he will only find pain. Obi-Wan Kenobi did not heed Yoda's warning and found the recording that showed Anakin Skywalker slaying younglings. It was a heartbreaking moment in Star Wars.
19 Somehow We Believe This Is What Yoda Actually Thinks
Finally, this meme creator gets straight to the point and says what we all want to hear. While an average person would say "You shouldn't speak if you're stupid," Yoda has an interesting dialect that contains sentences like "If stupid you are, speak you should not."
Although Yoda is one of the wisest members of the Jedi Council, we've never seen him act out arrogantly and make crude comments. We know Yoda is one of the most knowledgeable Jedi Masters on the council and that he is far wiser than other Jedi Masters such as Mace Windu and Obi-Wan Kenobi. We all know Yoda is smarter than everyone and he doesn't have much to prove. This is a funny meme. Nevertheless, Yoda wouldn't say this.
18 No Pun Intended...
We hope this Yoda joke of the day was the last of the year. Yoda is an unusual little green creature, but never has he been known to tell cheap Jedi jokes. The joke that is said in this meme sounds more like something zany that Jar Jar Binks would say. Why you do this Yoda???!!
"I’m lovin’ Cloud City my head’s in the sky. I’m solo, I’m Han Solo" - "I'm Han Solo," Kinect Star Wars
"What do you call a Jedi with one arm? Hand Solo." Now that we've dissected almost everything wrong with this meme, we have to admire its ingenuity. Yoda is a galaxy class warrior and apparently a galaxy class comedian. Who's looking forward to Jabba the Hutt's comedy night?
17 Very Old Yoda Is. Use CGI They Did Not...
It is astounding to see the transformation of Yoda's appearance that took place from the original Star Wars Yoda to the prequel Star Wars trilogy. Just from looking at this picture we see how weathered Yoda's appearance is. Compared to the CGI version in the prequel trilogy, Yoda appears much older and less realistic. The CGI version gave Yoda more of a personality and is easily the better version of the two.
This meme is another attempt at painting Yoda as a gay character in Star Wars. He was trapped on Dagobah for years without contact with anyone, so maybe its true. It is also possible that Yoda is expressing his bro feelings and wants to give his friend a massage.
16 Friday, Friday Gettin' Down Jedi Style On Friday
Who doesn't want to enjoy the weekend? Maybe it's not Rebecca Black's rendition of Friday, but almost everyone lives for the weekend. This meme is entertaining because of its bizarreness. Typically we hear Yoda say a statement that is wise and profound, but in this case, he is telling people to enjoy the weekend.
Star Wars is held in a distant galaxy with thousands and possibly millions of planets. Their days are likely not standardized, so it is probably incorrect to say there is a Friday in the Star Wars galaxy. Perhaps there is a universally standardized time? We are not sure, but this meme is quite funny because Yoda is providing golden satire.
15 A Lightsaber Can Also Be A Kitchen Knife
During Yoda's isolated years in the swampy world of Dagobah, he apparently learned how to be a cook. Not only is he a Master Jedi, but also a Master Chef. This idea of Yoda cooking reminds us of the '80 television show Alf. Like Yoda, Alf was an Alien who interacted with human beings. In an episode of Alf, Alf was cooking a meal but accidentally left the gas running. As a result, he exploded out of the kitchen.
"That's not a knife. This is a knife."
Lightsabers would cut through any food like butter. They are the ultimate kitchen tool. Yes, Yoda doesn't speak how most cooks would, and his recipes would be difficult to read, but if talking funnily helps him to remember recipes then all the power to him.
14 #NewYodaMixtape
Strangely, Star Wars takes place in a galaxy far, far away and a long, long time ago, but the inhabitants of this galaxy possess divine technology that we won't receive for centuries if ever. As we could imagine, during Yoda's time being stranded on Dagobah while in exile, somehow he had to stay busy. Since we know that people in Star Wars can record hologram messages and store them onto devices, it is likely mixtapes exist in the Star Wars universe.
Wouldn't it have been just perfect for Yoda to have become a music artist after retiring from being a Master Jedi? Our suggestions for names Yoda could go by are DJ Master Yoda, Young Green Solo, The Dagobah Chimer, and DJ JazzyGreen. If Yoda became a DJ or music artist what name would you give him? Let us know on Facebook!
13 All Hope Is Lost. Pain You Will Find
At least Yoda is honest. From what we've seen in Star Wars movies and books, Yoda is never afraid to give harsh truth. Qui-Gon Jinn was a Jedi Master who saw no problem in sheltering young Ani Skywalker and training him as a Jedi without consideration from the Jedi Council. Qui-Gon Jinn rarely provided harsh truths and was more of an optimist in situations.
Just give up hope. The dark side is going to win anyway.
Yoda's strident speaking is beneficial on the battlefield and for making tough decisions on the Jedi Council. With that said, this meme doesn't seem to capture a moment on the battlefield or Jedi Council, so it is odd Yoda would say this.
12 Serene As A Jedi, Yoda Is Not...
Who would have thought Yoda took offense so easily. We know he is wise with the force and he is much experience in training Jedi padawans, yet shouldn't he have a bit of a more relaxed attitude? Yoda has been around for over 900 years; he probably wouldn't make a statement so abrupt as this. Yoda may be one with the force, but he is apparently also a jerk.
In actuality, the meme creator made this meme to display Yoda's power that is beckoned by his calm stature. Yoda is not the Phantom Menace, but he is a wickedly powerful sorcerer who would lead nearly any enemy to be defeated. Yoda is a destructive force in the series and was the leading force behind the survival of countless Wookies.
11 The Mountain Dew Is Strong With This One
Whoever created this meme evidently has a passion for all things good in life. Mountain Dew, Star Wars, and Major League Gaming is enough for this meme to stand out.
"If no mistake have you made, yet losing you are ... a different game you should play." -Yoda, Shatterpoint
Perhaps you noticed subtle aspects of this meme such as Yoda's golden chain, his meme shades, high crown hat, and a small Illuminati symbol at the tip of Yoda's left ear. Why the meme designer added an Illuminati symbol is unknown, but it could mean that there is more than meets the eye to this meme and that there is a higher conspiracy at play. We are confused about what this meme implies, and it does have a lot of advertising, but we're going to go out on a limb here and say we like this meme.
10 My Grandmother, The Super Jedi
Who wasn't amazed during Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones when we finally witnessed Yoda engage in a lightsaber battle for the first time. Yoda slowly sauntered into the room and first demonstrated his force powers against Count Dooku. We only gained a short glimpse of Yoda's lightsaber prowess at this time, yet clearly, he knew how to wield one. The transition from Yoda walking like a grandmother to become an adept lightsaber duelist was surprising to say the least.
It is quite remarkable how Yoda's race can live to ages over 900 years. Yoda was 933 years of age when he perished, and his body was deteriorating before that. This little green ninja surprised viewers, and it's not every day we see something so peculiar as this.
9 Yoda The Latent Casanova
Luke Skywalker must have force jumped out of this situation once he heard Yoda exclaim those dire words. In this meme, Luke Skywalker came to the planet of Dagobah for Jedi training but instead was met with an unfortunate surprise that will probably scar him for the rest of his life. We know Dagobah is a lonely planet, nevertheless, Yoda went too far. This statement by Yoda is against the Jedi code and also, against humanities implied code.
"Lightsaber in my pocket, it is not." These words are cringey enough to make any meme reader either laugh or be utterly disgusted. We don't know for sure what is in Yoda's pocket because the meme doesn't say. We can assume, however, that he is referring to his parts.
8 An Evil Entity More Powerful Than The Sith
This meme forms an opinion that says that Disney is ruining Star Wars and not improving the franchise like most are hoping Disney will. It depends who you ask, but the majority of people would agree that the prequel trilogy was an utter mess due to its excessive CGI, dull plotlines, and depthless characters such as Jar Jar Binks.
We have our hopes and dreams in the hands of Disney.
Disney's Star Wars movies have been well received by critics and have been huge hits at the box office. Some of the moves Disney has made, such as killing off several major Star Wars characters, could set up Star Wars Episode IX for a complete disaster. To The Last Jedi's credit, it did manage to have some epic action scenes, yet somehow we are wary of Star Wars' future because of the lack of heroes and villains still alive.
7 Wtv, Says Master Yoda
This meme creator has good taste because they chose a photo that fits well with this caption. The stern look on Yoda's face is much like a dictator's and highlights Yoda's stern side. Anakin Skywalker was often frustrated with the Jedi Council, and we're sure Yoda has his dissatisfactions with the council as well.
This meme is bold, defined, and adamant. There are a plethora of Jedi Yoda may have directed this statement towards. Anakin Skywalker is a strong possibility, Qui-Gon Jinn was also known to be defiant towards the council, and Yoda may have even said this quote to Emperor Palpatine or a different member of the Jedi Council.
6 Don't Mess With His Shows
Two of the most successful franchises in the entertainment industry clash in this unordinary meme in which Yoda tells the audience to keep their mouths shut when he is watching The Walking Dead. The Walking Dead and Star Wars have both become significant parts of our entertainment lives. Even though each show has been in existence for years, their writers are continually finding new ways to develop their stories and surprise fans.
“That is why you fail.” -The Empire Strikes Back
Yoda most likely doesn't have Netflix, so he must have a high-tech satellite dish that is capable of reaching the far depths of space and is one that would allow him to watch The Walking Dead. Did this Yoda meme top the list? Find out on the next episode of Yoda memes.
