Melizza Minger Urquilla, a graduate student from UC Riverside, was inspired by the explosion of Leonardo DiCaprio memes around 2015. Although she hadn’t seen all of his films, she was fascinated by how the internet transformed him from a revered actor, who we all hoped would FINALLY win an Oscar, into the iconic pop culture meme. 

Amused by the endless supply of memes surrounding Leonardo DiCaprio, she incorporated references to them and some of DiCaprio’s most well-known movies: The Great Gatsby, Titanic, Catch Me If You Can, Inception, and more. She was also fascinated by this “rule” the Internet created about DiCaprio not being able to date anyone older than 25. People created a graph tracking his age alongside that of his girlfriends and realized none of them were older than 25. Well, that is, until now, with his current girlfriend being just 26-years old and him being 50. Progress, right?

These references are woven into the spells made by three witches, inspired by Shakespeare’s Macbeth. Taking the form of the classic play's adaptation of Greek Mythology's three fates, which often portray oracles. The most common presentation of this Greek mythology in pop culture would be the three fates in Disney's Hercules! These three witches use their magic and prophesying to get whatever they please into their witchy fingers!

See how many references you can find, and after the show, look up the DiCaprio memes—and that graph—for even more laughs!
