9 of the best ‘but it came out in 2007’ memes taking over the Internet

Prepare for Linkin Park’s “What I’ve Done” to get stuck in your head.

August is a pretty brutal time for moviegoers.

Summer blockbuster season is all but over. The likes of Top Gun: Maverick and Thor: Love & Thunder are getting ready to exit theaters and there isn’t much to get excited for until the holidays roll around.

Fortunately, the Internet has found a hilariously brilliant way to make new content out of old films—by editing Linkin Park’s “What I’ve Done” over scenes and cutting straight to the credits.

The “[Insert Movie], but it came out in 2007” meme quickly caught on and, oh man, is there some good content out there.

Funny enough, even though the song came out in 2007, it was first used to take a movie’s final scene into the end credits by Michael Bay’s Transformers in 2009. It set the bar pretty high.

Let’s see how the Internet stacks up against the original.

LeBron James and daughter Zhuri get in workout while watching ‘The Godfather’

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James was already back in the gym on Friday and his daughter Zhuri, watching one of his favorite movies.

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James has been away from the basketball court for less than a week after winning the 2020 NBA Championship and he’s already back in the gym. He also has a new workout partner, who has been a popular presence on his Instagram Story after returning home from the bubble: his daughter Zhuri. LeBron was also watching one of favorite movies while getting the workout in, The Godfather.

James shared the workout scene with his daughter on Friday afternoon. James had the movie on while also listening to Benny The Butcher’s new album, “Burden of Proof,” which just released on Friday.

LeBron continuing to put in the work only a few days after winning the championship also shows why the Lakers are still considered the championship favorites for the 2021 NBA Championship. Although there will likely be some turnover, there’s a very real chance the Lakers come back even better in their quest to defend the title.
