Melmoth: “Good evening, I’m your host Melmoth Melmothson. Tonight on The Big Question, we’re asking ‘The Sith, are they really all bad?‘. So let’s ask our panel of guests to discuss, The Big Question. Zoso Zerberus…”
Zoso: “Yes.”
Melmoth: “Zombie Clement Attlee?”
Zombie Clement Attlee: “Yeeeeeeeesss.”
Melmoth: “Mmm. Mmm. Drunk Hobo Who Hasn’t Heard of Star Wars?”
Drunk Hobo Who Hasn’t Heard of Star Wars: “Yesh.”
Melmoth: “Good point. George Lucas?”
George Lucas: “No.”
Melmoth: “Ah, interesting, we have at least one dissenter it seems. George Lucas, tell us why you think the Sith aren’t entirely the evil fascist world-destroying group of megalomaniacs that were portrayed in the films.”
George Lucas: “I never said they weren’t evil.”
Melmoth: “Yes you did. Just then.”
George Lucas: “No I didn’t, I’ve always maintained that they’re evil. I haven’t changed my mind. You can ask the pointless comedy CGI robot that’s just been added to the show.”
Melmoth: “Pointless Comedy CGI robot, do you corroborate George Lucas’ opinion?”
<Pointless Comedy CGI Robot’s head falls off and a giant spring wobbles about on top of its neck>
Melmoth: “I’m sorry, we seem to be having technical difficulties with Pointless Comedy CGI Robot. Darth Vader, what do you have to say to these allegations, are the Sith evil?”
Darth Vader: “Well, Mel, as a representative of the Sith Empire, I can only say this: I tried to kill my own children, I destroyed planets, killed millions with my bare force powers, and planned to dominate the galaxy all at the behest of a pervy old wrinkly guy in a bath robe.”
Melmoth: “Interesting, I suppose that’s a yes. Darth Malak?”
Darth Malak: “No question, Melmoth, we’re all evil. I mean, I have a tattooed bald head.”
Melmoth: “They don’t come much more evil than that. Darth Sidious?”
Darth Sidious: “My name evokes the word ‘insidious’, what do you think?”
Melmoth: “A yes from Sidious. Darth Maul?”
Darth Maul: “Uh, hello? Bald spiked head? Red and black outfit? Yellow contact lenses?”
Melmoth: “Fair enough so. Darth Dick Cheney?”
Darth Dick Cheney: “I was vice president to George W. Bush you know.”
Melmoth: “Ok, ok. No need to show off, a simple ‘yes’ would have sufficed. So there we have it folks, I think we’ve shown conclusively what everyone already knew anyway. Next week on The Big Question – The Samaritans: Are They Actually Evil Vainglorious Bastards, From A Certain Point Of View?”
Pointless Comedy CGI Robot, what would the movies be without you?
Bah Do-Gooder propaganda!
We Sith are benevolent, extending the rule of order throughout the galaxy and combating the evil of dodgy Jedi haircuts.
If it weren’t for us the Qi Gon ponytail would still be in style.
My antispam word is flange. Flange as in Sith, those masters of the improbable comeback. (“Let me see: there are only two of them and we’ve killed two so does that mean…. nah…)
We all know the sentient capcha generator is the real intelligence behind this site and on behalf of Sith everywhere I’d like to thank it for its support.
