Lucius Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 "Why is one of my captains weeping in what should be an hour of triumph?" asked the black clad one. The captain in question blinked away tears and snapped to attention to say "Sir, I....I have been to Nibiru. I....Sir, I know some of the people who just died." "Then some response is understandable" said the man in black in a soothing voice, "still, it seems odd for an officer if your known loyalty and discipline to lose military bearing so far as to shed tears before superior officers. Come, let me escort you to the infirmary and we will have your health checked." The captain's eyes went wide as she protested "No sir, I am sure that I am alright...." "Trust me" said the black clad one, "there are many ailments and imbalances of the blood that can strike those who venture into space. Trust me and come to the infirmary for some blood tests, just to be sure all is in harmony." His eyes blazed as he said for a third time "Trust me.' "I....trust you" said the captain, and in a seeming daze allowed herself to be led like a child towards the infirmary. As soon as they had left, one colonel no longer hid his disgust and said to the general "Isn't it disgraceful for a commander to seduce one of his subordinate officers into a romantic liaison - and right in front of us all!" "Careful what you say" said the general, "I am as disturbed as you, in fact, if you are thinking in terms of romance, you do not appreciate the full horror of the situation. There is a reason he wants to be sure her blood is healthy." The colonel blinked. "Surely he merely wants to protect himself from any possible venereal ailment.....?" The general took the colonel be the arm and drew him into an adjacent conference room and shut the door. "The reason he cares about her blood is that he means to drink it!" The colonel looked startled. "I have heard him called bloodthirsty but that is a common metaphor...." "Speak to me of metaphors when I am writing that captain's family her death letter" said the general grimly. "You NEVER heard this from me, but you should know what half the command knows already - Count Dracula is a vampire!"

Pariah Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 With Buttercup lost, who is to be Westley's Princess? Another blonde-haired blue-eyed beauty, a trifle simple, perhaps, and helpless? Eh, screw that. Westley needs a Princess as badass as he is. May I present Zeetha, Daughter of Chump (yes, she knows what it means in your language), lost Princess of the Lost City of Skifander.

I am afraid that Cancer has made a bit of a boo boo with his choice. If he means the two repair men who are subjected to the prank in the clip he means Spoor and Dowser played by Bob Hoskins and Derrick O'Connor.

Herr Draftmeister Hermit, I'll confirm DT's correction and edit my post to reflect my intention (which DT has correct) rather than my misreading of the film characters' information. Because I am busy today, that won't happen until tomorrow, I think. 2 hours ago, Psybolt said: The Token Alien Sidekick: Marvin the Martian (Looney Tunes) Yet more snipage!

Cancer Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 For our Big Bad, we draft the most successful, scariest, black-clad swordsman ever to appear as the title character of a series on prime-time US TV. Then we'll turn him to the Dark Side and replace his Spanish steel rapier with a red lightsaber. Hint: He's from Los Angeles. From his late-1950s TV series, we draft ... Picture, with sidekick Zorro!

Cancer Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 So ... who's the scariest entity in the first Star Wars movie? It's not Vader. Even Vader is scared of ... the Emperor. So here we pick, as an Option, our Emperor. Actually, Empress. Empress Porkpietime, Mistress of the Galaxy. Her Sith name is Trichinosis, which as foreshadowed above, is an anagram for "Histrionics", which makes so much overwhelming sense obviously the Force has been at work here. Darth Trichinosis. Empress Porkpietime. ... Miss Piggy. (For supporting evidence for why this just makes so much sense, just google "miss piggy in black". Beware: the goggles will do nothing to protect you.)
