Saruman was created by J R R Tolkien and appears in The Lord of the Rings as a powerful wizard who falls under Sauron's influence. In Peter Jackson's film trilogy, he was played by Christopher Lee, whose deep voice made the character especially quotable. Clips of his most serious lines are often reused online out of context, joining other dramatic villain lines in meme edits. Hold me now spread in that style, taking a stern fantasy figure and using his voice for comedy, sympathy and exaggerated emotional reactions.
