Anakin Skywalker's alter ego. Kills his wife, cuts off his son's hand, injects his daughter with galactic heroin, and throws his boss into a reactor trench.
Also killed countless random henchmen.

Melodic death metal

A musical sub genre of death metal, which in turn is also a sub genre of metal as a whole. It started during the early 90's, and began to really take off by the mid 90's, when many pioneering bands of the style would release some of their best work. Many credit Carcass as the band that invented this style, and various bands from Sweden (In Flames, Dark Tranquility, At the Gates) would be credited as pioneers of the "Gothenberg sound", which came to be dominant in the genre later on.

Melodic death metal can best be described as a mixture of the melody/progression from NWOBHM and thrash metal bands, and the sheer brutality of traditional death metal. Vocals are usually growled/shrieked, but clean vocals are used as well. Lots of guitar harmonies are used, along with aggressive riffs and drumming. There is even use of acoustic guitar as well. Sheer ass-kickery at it's finest!

In the early 2000's and more recent years, this style would greatly influence many American metalcore bands. The style has continued to develop in Europe as well.

In Flames, Dark Tranquility, At the Gates, Arch Enemy, Kalmah - all great melodic death metal bands!

Moths of Death

Moths of death is the equivalent to having nervous butterflies with the exception that the situation giving you moths of death is terrible and hurtful and in no way good.

Hayden: What's wrong Andrew?

Andrew: I have to go see Jamie after she tried to cut me out of her life.

Hayden: How are you feeling about talking to her.

Andrew: I have moths of death in my stomach.

The tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise

A story the Jedi would not tell you It's a sith Legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life... He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful... the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. It's ironic he could save others from death, but not himself.

The Senate: Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?

Anakin: No

Death Note

An amazing anime about a high school genius named Light, and an equally smart detective named L.

Also, it focuses a lot on snacks. Dramatically.

Typical Scene from Death Note:

Light: Just watch me L, I'll solve equations with my right hand and write names with my left...I'll take a potato chip...AND EAT IT! *potato chip sparkles*
