The most popular evil of all galaxies is a magnet to advertise all kinds of products and services. Doubting his mediatic pull "is annoying", how would he say.
Together with the bloodthirsty Hannibal Lecter, he is one of the most evil characters in cinema. We speak of the supreme commander of the Imperial Fleet, Darth Vader, who has become a world icon based on torturing princesses, executing rebels and destroying entire planets.
His black mask, breathy breath and penetrating voice are recognized in any corner of the planet (although not a single frame of the famous saga has been seen). His black silhouette is more popular even than the disheveled hair of Chewbacca or the laser sword of his son Luke Skywalker.

And of course, eating has to eat. And if you eat at a fast food restaurant like McDonald's you have the advantage that you do not have to wait for a tray of food to find a place in these almost always crowded places. Surely La Fuerza lends a hand

What's more, Quick, a French fast food chain, did not hesitate to launch a hamburger in his honor, the "Dark Vador Burguer", where the dark color was predominant. The truth is that very good looking does not have ..

For that, do not underestimate for a moment the power of advertising and less the Dark Side of the Force. Warned are left. Thank you
