In the age of the internet, movies don’t have to stop at being movies. Often, they find new life as reaction GIFs, image macros, TikTok remixes, and so much more. But what movies have actually become part of the universal meme canon?

Here are 32 movies that have spawned iconic internet memes.

Under the Skin

During production in 2012, paparazzi following Johansson on set in Scotland caught the actress taking a scripted stumble on the sidewalk. We’ve all hit the pavement before, but not all of us are famous actors who’ve played Marvel superheroes. The image of Johansson preparing to eat concrete inspired countless Photoshop memes that recycled her into MMA fights, playing bongo drums, riding dolphins, or throwing it down as an EDM DJ.

28. Confused Travolta – Pulp Fiction (1994)

Pulp Fiction

Given Pulp Fiction’s enduring reputation in mainstream pop culture, it’s no surprise it found instant meme status after it was posted on Reddit circa November 2012, according to Know Your Meme. Since then, “Confused Travolta” has represented how we all feel when we’re unsure about what to do and where to go – and frankly, isn’t that us all the time?

24. Conspiracy Keanu – Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure (1989)

Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure

An early internet meme, “Conspiracy Keanu” comes from Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure, one of Keanu Reeves' earliest hit movies. The young Keanu co-stars with Alex Winter in the movie, playing California teenagers who go on a bodacious ride through human history to save their own butts from flunking out of high school. At one point in the movie, Keanu’s Ted has a shocked look on his face. It’s not over conspiracies that have just dawned on him, however, but a gang of knights that are hot on their tail. Likely due to Reeves' associations with The Matrix, “Conspiracy Keanu” combines both The Matrix and Reeves generally being very funny-looking when he’s stunned to synthesize into “Conspiracy Keanu.”

23. Willem Dafoe Looking Up – At Eternity’s Gate (2018)

22. I Love Video Games/Me Too – (500) Days of Summer (2009)

(Image credit: Fox Searchlight Pictures)

(500) Days of Summer

Buckle up, because this meme requires some explanation. The 2009 rom-com (500) Days of Summer stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel as twenty-somethings in L.A. who go through an emotional situationship. One of the most pivotal moments in the movie is when Tom (Gordon-Levitt) and Summer (Deschanel) are seen shopping at a vintage record store. In 2024, the movie found renewed life as a meme, illustrating the contrasts between boy/girl couples and their interests. The most popular example, and the one that started the meme, shows Tom claiming to “love video games” and Summer reply she does too, only for Tom to mean video games like Elden Ring while Summer means Lana Del Rey’s “Video Games.” This specific exchange does not happen in the movie – Lana Del Rey’s song came out a few years after the movie – but that’s the internet for ya.

21. #PrattKeeping – Jurassic World (2015)

20. The Rock Driving – Race to Witch Mountain (2009)

Race to Witch Mountain

Before Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson enjoyed a career resurgence in 2011’s Fast Five, he was in a slew of family-friendly movies including 2009’s Race to Witch Mountain. The Rock stars in the movie as a Las Vegas cab driver who ends up having to drive two alien teenagers to safety. An early scene sees The Rock meet the kids after they’ve stowed away in his cab; this scene has since lived on as a wildly popular meme where The Rock makes a statement and the girl Sara (AnnaSophia Rob) says something shocking that makes him turn around speechless. The actual scene in the movie plays outwaydifferently, however.

19. Captain America PSA – Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)

(Image credit: Sony Pictures)

Spider-Man: Homecoming

So, you don’t know where this meme is from? One of the best gags in Spider-Man: Homecoming features cameos of Chris Evans, as Captain America, inextremelycorny PSAs for public high school students. The joke peaks halfway through the movie when Peter Parker (Tom Holland) winds up in detention and is subjected to another whack-as-heck video about owning up to one’s mistakes, with Captain America radiating youth pastor vibes. Note the hilarious way he spins around and sits on a backwards chair. You know, like acoolsuperhero. At the peak of the MCU’s popularity, Marvel fans ran wild with the joke, using Cap to make their own ironic PSAs.

15. Laughing Ray Liotta – Goodfellas (1990)

Goodfellas

Ray Liotta’s laugh in Martin Scorsese’s 1990 classic Goodfellas is so funny, so weird, so emblematic of his character’s genuine unease as he becomes a solidified man in the Italian mob, that it’s become iconic including as a meme. While screenshots of the scene are mostly used as a reaction image to show outsized laughter, compilations of Liotta’s laughter in Goodfellas are also quite popular on YouTube. Liotta’s laugh was iconic enough that it warranted the actor to do it again years later for a different character in the 2019 film The Many Saints of Newark, the cinematic prequel to HBO’s The Sopranos.

12. “First Time?” – The Ballad of Buster Scruggs (2018)

(Image credit: Netflix)

The Ballad of Buster Scruggs

For some people, they’re having the worst day of their lives. For others, it’s a Tuesday. In the Coen Brothers' anthology Western film The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, one segment features James Franco as a nameless bandit (officially credited as “Cowboy”) who is eventually arrested and sentenced to hang. Unfazed, he looks over to another elderly man who is weeping. He simply quips, “First time?” Well, for everyone here, it’s their last. The scene has spun off into a popular meme, with Franco’s casually spoken line serving as a punchline to common but grave misfortunes.

9. “For the Better, Right?” – Star Wars Episode 2: Attack of the Clones (2002)

Star Wars: Attack of the Clones

One of the most romantic scenes in the whole Star Wars franchise remains Anakin (Hayden Christensen) and Padme’s (Natalie Portman) “Across the Stars” sequence from 2002’s Attack of the Clones. But their moment of bliss is briefly soured when the two express opposing opinions on the right way to practice politics. Anakin’s potential for the Dark Side is vaguely felt in his insistence that force ought to be used to carry out law and order, which concerns Padme. So it’s no surprise that Anakin and Padme’s conflict of perspectives have won meme status, becoming a series of images in which Padme realizes Anakin’s darker intentions. The scene doesn’t play out exactly as the meme does, but the Force is strong in it nonetheless.

7. “I’m Something of a Scientist Myself” – Spider-Man (2002)

(Image credit: Sony Pictures)

Spider-Man

Next to Leonardo DiCaprio and Denzel Washington, Willem Dafoe may be one of the most memed actors in Hollywood. In 2002, Dafoe co-starred in Spider-Man as billionaire CEO Norman Osborn, who later transforms into the villain Green Goblin. The tragedy of his descent into madness is that he initially starts out a surrogate, pseudo father figure to Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire), much to the chagrin of his own real son Harry (James Franco). Early in the movie Norman and Peter meet for the first time and immediately bond over a shared love of science. Hence the line, “You know, I’m something of a scientist myself.” Removed from context, the line is strange and funny enough on its own. Around 2017, it wound up a meme on 4chan, and is now used to denote when people ironically try to make themselves a peer to someone (or something) smarter. In 2021, Dafoe hilariously recited the line in Spider-Man: No Way Home.

6. “You Don’t Say?” – Vampire’s Kiss (1998)

(Image credit: MGM)

Vampire’s Kiss

As usual, the memers got it slightly wrong. In the madcap 1998 supernatural comedy Vampire’s Kiss, esteemed thespian Nicholas Cage plays a literary agent who falls in love with a vampire (Jennifer Beals). A pivotal scene in the movie, where Cage’s character mockingly and cruelly puts down his secretary (María Conchita Alonso) features some of Cage’s most outlandish face acting of his career. Around 2009, a webcomic recycling Cage’s face from the movie went viral on YouTube, leading to its spread elsewhere on places like Funnyjunk, Reddit, and 4chan. Notably, Cage doesn’t actually say “You don’t say,” (you don’t say?) but somehow we can all hear him do so in his whispery, raspy voice.

5. Angry Hitler – Downfall (2004)

4. Patrick Bateman Listens to Music – American Psycho (2000)

American Psycho

We’ve all been there. Monday morning. Walking into the office, full of people we may or may not despise. So you put on happy music just to get through the agony. In American Psycho, Christian Bale’s cold and cruel yuppie (who is also possibly a serial killer) walks into another day at his office listening to “Walking on Sunshine” in his headphones while putting on a detached, don’t-bother-me expression. The movie’s enduring popularity and resonance with young men have made the whole movie a meme, but this scene specifically has enjoyed endless remixes on TikTok and YouTube. Whether it’s anime J-pop or WWE wrestler entrance themes, there’s always something playing in Patrick Bateman’s ears.

3. Epic Handshake – Predator (1987)

(Image credit: 20th Century Studios)

Predator

The 1987 action-thriller Predator has spawned dozens of memes. While “Get To Da Choppa” was an early internet favorite, “Epic Handshake” has easily eclipsed it through sheer awesomeness alone. Occurring early in the movie (as in, before all the death and destruction happens), Arnold Schwarzenegger and Carl Weathers' characters reunite as old war buddies in a sweaty South American bar and greet each other with a handshake turned impromptu armwrestling match. The scene inspired an oil painting, which has become a meme to depict a union or agreement of two equally strong forces.
