"I wasn't one of the kids smoking dope behind the dumpster, but I was hanging out with kids who were, and when the cops came they took us all to jail. I totally got caught in a Yankee Sweep!"

Currently used to describe a 2022 movie seeing a massive amount of success commerically and critically, jokingly or seriously. The best 2 examples are for Morbius, which is jokingly seen as raising quadrillions of dollars (or 'Morbillion') (#MorbiusSweep) and Sonic the Hedgehog 2 The Movie, which is SERIOUSLY seen as a massive critical and commericla success, sometimes even more so than Morbius because of the movie actually being good, unlike Morbius which is a bad movie if we're being serious. (sorry for being a partypooper) A much less popular examples is a Sweep for The Bad Guys, which I honestly havent seen much of unlike the previous 2 I mentioned.

'WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU'RE NOT EXCITED FOR MORBIUS #LETOSWEEP #MORBIUSSWEEP'
'Me when people ask me why people arent excited for Sonic The Hedgehog 2 (in theaters April 8, 2022) #Sonic2Sweep #Sonic2Film'
