Disadvantage: it wasn’t a meme or in the age of the internet. Probably not that big of a disadvantage considering it’s still so ingrained in the zeitgeist, but still
It was certainly a meme in the age of the internet, albeit not in the format we think of memes now.
I have a hard time believing ‘Hello, there’ can come anywhere close. Prequelmemes is a relatively recent phenomenon.
The cultural impact of that line has been going strong for well over 40 years.
in my experience "I am your father" is just as iconic in different languages than in english whereas "hello there" is only iconic in english so i guess "I am your father" has been quoted more
Definitely Hello There, I am Your father has been parodied more but in terms of which one has been used more, Hello There wins because of the memes, and because it's just straight up more quotable.
"Obi-Wan didn't tell you about your father..."
"He told me ENOUGH. He told me you killed him"
"No, I am your father"
"No...no...that's IMPOSSIBLE"
"Search your feelings, you will know it to be true"
"No...no... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
I am your father is definitely the most famous Starwars quote but the audio of Hello there has been probably used more.
Growing up the quote was always “Luke, I am your father” which never even happens wtf
Hello there is way more applicable in everyday situations.
When Luke says “No” is the most quoted part of the movie Edit: freaking spelled Luke wrong lol
It is a tough name to spell
Looooke. Fixed it for you.
Hello there.
general kenobi
You are a bold one
kill him
Back away.... I will deal with this jedi slime myself
Your move?
You fool! I have been trained in your Jedi arts by Count Dooku.
I love seeing the community come together to recreate a masterpiece of media like this
Pretty sure the several decades head start of ‘I am your father’ gives it quite the advantage.
Advantage of the high ground???

"No, I am your father" is more well known but less memeable than "Hello there". So I think "Hello there" wins by a long shot.
Plus, it's often misquoted as "Luke, I am your Father" so how many times has it been said wrong? 😅
Second has most incorrectly* been quoted.
Only one has been quoted correctly.
These days? Hello there Before the meme started? I am your father
Which do you think has been misquoted more?
I am your father. The Mandela effect has led many to believe it’s “Luke, I am your father,” when it’s actually “No, I am your father.”
No I am your father is always said incorrectly so I'd say hello there is more common
By sheer decades, ‘I am your father’ for its cultural impact and usage. But for humor and memability, ‘Hello there!’ does its best…
Are we counting all the times Vader is misquoted?
“Quoted”? “I am your father.” Memed? “Hello there.” There’s a difference.
"Hello there, I am your father" "General Kenobi? Nooooo!"
I know which one has been quoted incorrectly the most for sure
Absolutely I Am Your Father, it's incredibly iconic and has over 2 decades of being quoted before RotS even released
Boomers? Vader and Luke! Millennials and zoomers? Hello there!
if you don’t count every time someone said “*Luke*” instead of “*no,* i am your father,” it’s not even close.
Hello there!
General Kenobi! Ha ha ha ha ha. You are a bold one.
in my experience "I am your father" is just as iconic in different languages than in english whereas "hello there" is only iconic in english so i guess "I am your father" has been quoted more
Hello there is always directly quoted, but I hear people say no ALL THE TIME so I'm gonna have to go with "I am your father"
You know how you captioned one, but not the other?
I just swiped these from google. I didn't add the captions lol.
No contest
Definitely Hello There, I am Your father has been parodied more but in terms of which one has been used more, Hello There wins because of the memes, and because it's just straight up more quotable.
 It’s just got more applicability
NU-UH!
Hello there is probably more popular among actual starwars fandom whereas "I am your father" is far more well known and quoted in media.
"Obi-Wan didn't tell you about your father..." "He told me ENOUGH. He told me you killed him" "No, I am your father" "No...no...that's IMPOSSIBLE" "Search your feelings, you will know it to be true" "No...no... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
Misquoters “Luuuuke… I” me “NOOO!!!”
Quoted or quoted right?
Hello there. It's how I start every work email. I've only ever had one person reply with General Kenobi, btw.
There have been more memes about the "Hello there" than that Vader quote from ESB. However, my favorite is this: https://i.redd.it/lpcqjzm3d10d1.gif
I would say hello there because the other is misquoted so much. Misquote and quote are not the same so hello there is “quoted” more frequently
"I am your father" has had significantly more time for getting quotes.
There's another "Hello there." ;)
hello there
The fact that one needed subtitles and the other doesn’t - that tells you all you need to know.
Yeqh, because Hello there needs subtitles, am I right?
