Why this one

Bad Lip Reading has 8 million subscribers and their typical content draws around 300,000 views — a devoted audience for exactly one format: replacing film dialogue with nonsense that somehow sounds correct. The Last Jedi was the most divisive Star Wars film in decades, which meant its entire fanbase had strong opinions and needed somewhere to put them. Bad Lip Reading's version gave them a Kylo Ren whose main concern was retrieving his stick, and 41 million people watched it — roughly 137 times the channel's baseline. The mechanism was the same one that powers every great parody: the source material has to be famous enough that the joke lands on people who have never clicked on a Bad Lip Reading video before.
