"The Goal" was an objective set by the admins of Darthmemeus on May 7th, 2018. Announced in an Instagram post shortly after Star Wars day, The Goal expressed a commitment to meme every line of the Star Wars Prequel Trilogy.

Origin
The idea for The Goal was formulated by Darthmemeus Admins 1 and 2 as a driving force for their account. With The Goal driving them to post, they found themselves with a steady supply of formats to meme, which was beneficial to them as neither of them were creative enough to make memes consistently without it.

Announcement
In a post on May 7th, 2018, Dathmemeus expressed their goal of memeing every line of the prequels, stating "From the first wors of The Phantom Menace to the last of ROTS. All will be memed." As of March 2021, the post has garnered nearly 10 likes.

Notable Entries
Over the course of memeing every line of the prequels, many notable and iconic memes have been created. These range from low quality edits like that found in Line 2 to iconic masterpieces like Line 39. The full collection of Every Line post can be found alongside the other memes on the Darthmemeus Instagram Page.

Outsourcing
In march of 2019, as a way of giving back to the community, Darthmemeus announced to the Memetroopers that they would now be asking for some help from their followers, stating "In order to meme every line of the prequels, we'll need your help." While this idea was met with enthusiasm by fans, certain critics felt the move was lazy, and an attempt to shy away from putting in work. However, Darthmemeus stated "We will still be contributing our own ideas alongside your ideas."

Setbacks
""Bruh this is literally one of the easiest lines to make a meme for, there are practically infinite opportunities with this line, and you go for another boss nass meme? Disgraceful""

In September of 2019, shortly after the posting of Line 93 B, Amazon Prime Video, the source of the Every Line screenshots, changed its privacy policy and began preventing screenshots. During this time, Darthmemeus took a break from posting every line, unsure of how to proceed. In September of 2019 however, an opportunity presented itself, in the form of a USB drive known as "The Sacred Texts," which was provided by Outpost_Beta 2. Using The Sacred Texts, which possessed every Star Wars movie out at the time, Admin 2 was able to screenshot the memeable frames of the films and write the subtitles in himself. For the first meme produced in this way, Line 94, Admin 2 put care into ensuring that the text still appeared liked the previous memes, however this proved tedious, and as a result, the later lines are made to a much lower standard of quality. This method, which required a PC to function, was a major setback for The Goal, and led to a fast decline in meme production. As of March 2021, only 117 lines had been memed.

Hiatus and Future Plans
After the decline in Every Line memes, overall Darthmemeus production slowed to a halt. Darthmemeus announced that they would be on hiatus. However, the Admins of Darthmemeus have begun to plan a comeback, in which they will meet up and meme every line of the prequels, and then phase them out over the next decade. Currently on hold due to COVID-19 procedures, this plan will inevitably come to fruition and the world will once again be blessed by the light of Darthmemeus memes.

Cultural Impact
The cultural impact of The Goal has been major. Since Darthmemeus's announcement, various other accounts on various platforms have made similar goals. In addition, the Every Line process has led to the creation of many meta memes, generally by Admin 3. Specific lines have also become the subject of many jokes, such as Line 39, and Line 4.

Controversy
The process of memeing every line of the prequels regrettably produced various memes that have been interpreted as controversial or offensive. Many of these memes have since been taken down in an effort to maintain the homey nature of the Darthmemeus Instagram page. Notable examples include Line 48, which was never posted, and Line 60, which was taken down.

Trivia

 * The announcement of The Goal includes a typo, a misspelling of the word "word" as "wors." When pointed out, Admin 2 expressed a desire to leave it in, calling it "iconic" and "a part of history."
 * Admin 2.5 is the only Darthmemeus admin not to have made an Every Line meme.
 * Despite Darthmemeus stating that a certain number of lines have been memed, the real number is slightly lower than the stated value for each meme, as certain lines have been skipped for various reasons.
 * Admin 2 once approached a friend to determine whether or not Line 48 was appropriate, but then decided not to post it anyways.
 * Admin 3 named his car "Our Plans" as a reference to Line 39.
 * Due to internal errors, Darthmemeus posted two memes labeled “Line 93,” referred to on this Wiki as "Line 93 A" and "Line 93 B."
 * Lines 200 and 201 were posted in the wrong order.
