I remember in Revenge of the Sith, when the actor playing Vader yells "nooooooooo", at what is supposed to be the emotional climax of the trilogy, the theater roared in laughter.

Do you have other examples?

Not in the theatre but watching Kill Bill. Very tense moment when Uma Thurmam confronted the other woman (at 30 seconds https://youtu.be/sPfjd2bayVs). It zooms in on her eyes, plays the music, and I fucking lost it.

They used to do that in Bruce Lee movies and I was not expecting that in a Hollywood blockbuster. QT was inspired though.

yes, though mostly parodied in videos and not that prevalent. couldn't find it on KnowYourMeme

I remember it mostly being in various late 00's–early 10's youtube poops, and probably at least one in GMod Idiot Box
