Sorta looks like Dark Helmet, doesn’t it?

This is my daughter’s favorite jelly fish at the moment. Her main complaint about the latest Star Wars movie was that there was no hint of what she calls the real Darth Vader in it (she doesn’t like his creepy Anakin Skywalker form).

They just show that wretched ruined helmet. I don’t think they WILL show the real Darth Vader anymore. He dun gawn and that’s pretty much it now. Oh well…
