You’ve probably noticed that Burger King stores were selling Star Wars toys when Star Wars Episode III appeared in theaters. Burger King also had a “newsletter” about Star Wars, and I have a few… complaints, the first of which I will be discussing here.
On the back of the newsletter, they have an activity where you specify if a certain Star Wars character is on the Light or Dark Side. I have determined that the basic rule is: if it’s not on the Light Side, it’s automatically on the Dark Side. Now that is what I call sterotyping. (I suppose it could also be called oversimplification.)
According to Burger King, Watto is on the Dark Side (oh, come on people!). Jabba the Hutt is classified as being on the Dark Side also. I thought Jabba was just a fat ugly gangster, not a Sith! All I know is that he certainly would not be dexterous with a lightsaber.
