"These Are Not the Droids You Are Looking For" is a catchphrase often used humorously to suggest that something doesn't represent what it appears to. The phrase evolved into a template 'These Aren't the X You're Looking For,' allowing for versatile applications in various meme contexts.

OriginWho did it first?

The phrase originated from the 1977 film 'Star Wars,' delivered by the character Obi-Wan Kenobi, played by Alec Guinness. It occurs during a scene where Obi-Wan, along with his companions, is stopped by Stormtroopers while searching for the smuggler Han Solo in Mos Eisley. Watching the scene on YouTube highlights how Obi-Wan uses the phrase to manipulate the Stormtroopers with his Jedi mind powers, leading to the memorable quote.^[1]
