The Rules

I try not to be that guy, but the song is called The Imperial March, and that name makes it so much funnier historically.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 weeks ago

yes. but the mains all had their themes and the Imperial March was Vader's.

Also. i'm with Dream_Weasel. best them in the franchise.

and anyone who disagrees should watch this short. (though probably start at the beginning.)

Hehehehehehe that's actually pretty funny.

I can't wait for them to come up with another joke.

I think they should make a tour. They should definitely stop by Poland!

The Bundes Committee on Humor is not set to meet for another biennium cycle. Until then, no proposals for next joke shall be heard.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 4 weeks ago

It really is the best theme in the franchise IMO.

Next up - snazzy gray officers uniforms and bundeswehr storm troopers.

Wait a sec...
