In fact Darth Vader is so cool, the emperor makes him do that Noooooo scene so that his cool factor is crippled and remain more powerful than Vader, just in case he decides to kill him.

Hence the Sith guys having the coolest outfits, lightsabers. Note that none of them are that tall headed multi eyed gimp or a small green frog. No they are black helmet cyberman, Crazy double sabre red spiky head dude and the nasty general.... Cool.

Thats why Han Solo has to not believe in the force, because he'd have to be sith...... or he'd drop dead, and this is why he has kids with leia. They can never be as cool as their dad, so can never become sith jedi....

Luke is so not cool, even when trying. Presumably Mace Windu wasn't cool until the film got rolling, and thats how he became weak enough to be dispatched. Yoda, so uncool, he's powerful enough to survive all the Jedi.

See the undoing of the jedi is that excellently cool scene in the Clone Wars where they do that Droid fight. thats why so many of them die, because their cool ratings rose.

Notice how darth vader died so quickly after we saw his gimpy face.... uber loss of cool. More than the Noooooo scene (which rendered him incapable of sorting out the jedi for 20 odd years - even though the senete is only abolished at the start of Episode 4.....).

Infact the only reason Count Ducky lasts as long as he does is because its Christopher Lee. Having been Dracula, Sauraman and now a sith, he's triumvate cool.

That's the best explanation ever.
