The 'Saruman Magically Summoning' meme is derived from Peter Jackson's The Fellowship of the Ring, specifically the moment Saruman stands atop the tower of Orthanc to summon a snowstorm on the pass of Caradhras to impede the Fellowship. Featuring the legendary Christopher Lee, the image captures a moment of intense, malevolent power. In digital culture, it is used to represent a person dramatically 'summoning' or manifesting something—ranging from minor social chaos and technical difficulties to a sudden burst of motivation. Its popularity stems from the hilarious contrast between Saruman's epic high-fantasy wizardry and the often trivial or relatable modern situations users apply it to.
