See https://pluralistic.net/2024/03/13/hey-look-over-there/#lets-you-and-he-fight @writing A scene from "Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi" features Admiral Ackbar, an amphibious humanoid character with a large, fish-like head, inside a spaceship. He exclaims, "It's a trap," as depicted by the yellow text at the bottom of the image. The background shows a starry outer space view through the ship's window. This moment is iconic in pop culture, often used to signify an impending danger or deception.
