I have been educated by a few Star Wars fans who have visited the social media outposts for my novel, “High Ground” that, in fact, “I have the High Ground” is a catchphrase which reached meme status within the legions of fans for the classic sci-fi film franchise. And I let them know about the 1980’s Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) that forms the backstory of my novel. Who knew?
Hey, See that? We both learned something there!
“I Have the High Ground” is a catchphrase based on a line said by Obi-Wan Kenobi in the 2005 film Star Wars: Episode III — Revenge of the Sith. Online, the phrase is often used in Prequel Memes, i.e. jokes regarding Star Wars: Episodes I, II and III.
