Vader needs to regenerate, as can be clearly seen in Star
Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back.

isn't he sitting in some kind of regeneration chamber, all
plugged in when the Emperor calls him via holophone?

Uh, Drac has to regenerate too. That's what the coffin is
for.

I know.

but everybody seemed to have the idea that Vader doesn't
need sleep.

Oh yeah. There's still a man inside all that black
machinery...

Yeah, but that was before all the "enhancements". Then he
became the dark, sleek, admiral-choking, ladies' man we all
know and hate...

the bear vs. shark conundrum was not at all subjective. i
believe i solved that one once and for all. but, to
reiterate, they both would die from the enjuries they would
recieve.

this whole darth vs. dracula issue is a much more complex
question.

i find it hard to believe that dracula would have much of an
interest in the blood of darth vadar, unless he was very
hard up. but, simply for the sake of argument i'll
consider this quandry whilst i sleep tonight.

no doubt the answer will come to me.

i bid you good evening.

it's a tough call - the force is strong, yes, but if the
vampire mythos are true, then you would need one of the
following to kill a vampire:

a)garlic
b)holy water
c)a crucifix
d)a wooden stake
e)a silver bullet (and no, it's not just werewolves)

it would be a hell of a fight.

Jesus, aren't you people listening? Once Dracula turns
Vader, Vader becomes his minion. It isn't because
he's thirsty or into large men in black plastic bodysuits.
Not that there's anything wrong with that.

actually, I think Vader being a father would be his weak
point - as it is his ultimate downfall and thereby his
salvation in the films.

his humanity kills him.

thing about Dracula is, he's already dead anyway. that MUST
give you an edge, even if only a dead psychological one.

Before you can have Vader and Dracula co-existing and then
fighting in the same universe, you have to reconcile how
each gets their powers to see if it can even work, not only
which will be superior.

Vader gets his powers from the force, the all powerful
energy field that binds all things. He uses the
dark side of the force, (which from my understanding
its not just that the user is evil and distorts an otherwise
good or neutral force, but that there is actually a dark
side to the force itself).

In the '92 film, Dracula becomes a vampire and gets his
power when he renounces the church and God in his anger, and
is cursed. The curse causes his vampirism and it is implied
that his powers come from his communion with hell. In the
novel, however, he is a sorcerer and necromancer before he
becomes a vampire. He uses his knowledge of the black arts
to cheat death by becoming undead. This is why he has
powers like shape shifting, turning into mist, causing
storms, etc. that other vampires do not. ref

The necromancer origin for Dracula would work much easier
than getting too far into something related to the church,
God, hell, the devil etc. because those ideas conflict with
the Force. Black magic, however, can be generalized.

I may have a short outline to follow.

The force became stupid when they pseudoscienced it with
'metachnorians'. Then again, which star wars element
didn't become stupid in the prequels? Really this
whole battle depends on which version of Darth Vader does
battle. If the retard prequel "Noooooooooooooo!" version,
then certainly Dracula would win. Vice versa if the late
1970's version. And the same results if you substitute
Dracula with Count Chocula.

pt 1
Following the dual with Obi 1 Kenobe on the first Death
Star, Darth Vader was intrigued by what he sensed had
happened in the Force when his old master suddenly
dematerialized as he was delivering the death blow. He was
able to sense that Obi 1 had absorbed himself into the
Force, and that he still had his identity. This was true,
of course, as old Ben had been preparing for this with the
ghost of his former mentor, Qui gon Jin.

As Darth Vader pondered this, his thoughts once again turned
to Padme, the wife whom he once thought he could save by
using the unnatural arts of the dark side. Even now, as a
master Sith lord he was no closer to having that knowledge
than he had been 20 years ago, and Padme had been gone so
long as well. Yet, if someone were able to maintain their
identity in the force, could not one's identity be reclaimed
from the force? Could my dear Padme yet be saved?

Mayhap this technique of the Jedi could be combined with the
teachings of the legendary Darth Plagueis to bring Padme
back from the force and also restore her life..

Since Dracula isn't real (he's a fictional character, check
it up), Darth would just be hitting air with his light
saber! Poor man.

Later, Darth Vader discovered a hidden library in the
Emperor's estate on Coruscant. In the library he discovered
a book labeled The Memoirs of Darth Plagueis the Wise.
Palpatine had always told him that no such writing existed,
yet it appeared he had lied. Vader spent the next several
weeks reading over the writings of this great Sith Lord,
much of which was focused on his obsession with cheating
death and even creating life. He eventually came to a
chapter where Plagueis spoke about a very powerful user of
the dark side who, in the future, was able to cheat death.

One night, while meditating in the dark side, I beheld a
vision of the distant future. I saw, in a place called
Transylvania, a being who is also a master of the dark side,
though he does not call it such. I saw that he was able to
cheat death, and gain immortality and great power while
becoming truly a unique being of the dark side. He is of
noble blood, and his name is Count Dracula.


Vader reads on to discover that Plagueis was trying to find
a way to use the force to commune with this Lord Dracula,
and learn his secret. This is where the book abruptly ends,
as Palpatine killed Plagueis at that time, out of fear that
this Dracula was to replace him as the apprentice.

So then Vader starts trying to figure this out, but you know
who comes along and kicks everyone's ass? Batman. Batman
does not have any powers, and he doesn't even need them. It
doesn't matter if you have powers either, because he will
still think of a way to kick your ass.

So, Batman is hanging out in the Batcave when Martian
Manhunter calls him up and tells him that the cosmos is off
balance and it's because Vader is trying to commune with
Dracula. Batman gets Green Lantern to give him a ride to
Coruscant where he immediately begins kicking Vader's ass.
Batman pwns Vader, then kicks the Emperors ass and ties them
both up and leaves them for Gordon. Then he reads the force
shit himself, and figures out how to teleport to
Transylvania where he immediately kicks Dracula's ass, ties
him up, and leaves him for Gordon.

He then puts the lightsaber and amulet in his utility belt
and fucks off the end.

Did he fuck off the end of the lightsaber, amulet or utility
belt? And if the lightsaber, which end; the glowing part or
the handle? Thnx.

Let's just say when Batman entered the room where the 3
vampire wives slept, all he had on was his mask and the
amulet, and he had some unruly plans for the lightsaber.

why can't vader just cripple him into a pretzel with his
mind powers, making dracula sniff his own willy before he
dies?

All dracula needs is some chicken and watermelon. James Earl
Jones will be so distracted that Darth Vader will lose his
power to control the force.

Now, Gmork vs. Darth Vader, that could be interesting. One
controls the force and one controls the nothing.

I can't believe that out of all the star wars movies, not
one person has been fucked with a light saber. That
material should really write itself.

its obvious, vader in his tie fighter v dracular in bat
form

bat has sonar so can seek out vader in the dark, vader
gets all confused smashes into lucas's house and chewie who
was having tea there runs over and helps beat the smell out
of vader for putting han in carbofreeze.

dracular in bat form wins

But sonar, not to mention wings or lungs, shouldn't work in
space due to the vacuum, which makes me wonder why tie
fighters always made a NNNEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHHH sound. Maybe the
bat could hold its breath and crawl to that vulnerable part
of the death star then gnaw the wiring while darth vader is
inside. That would result in a tie though. Actually given
the bats smaller body size, maybe it would incinerate and
die a microsecond quicker thus making Vader the technical
winner.
