Why is it in every bad, Grade-B movie or Grade B TV show (like *cough* "Charmed" *cough) those people who are "evil" always call themselves "evil." Like they'll say things like "we'll turn him to evil" or "evil will rise again" or "the forces of evil will finally beat back the forces of good!" And always said with maniacal laughing. Even in "Star Wars" the bad guys always talk about being on the "Dark Side" of the Force. Do evil people really consider themselves "evil"? Aren't most people who are "evil" still consider themselves on the forces of good, even if their idea of "good" is fairly twisted. You know, that whole denial thing. Especially considering that no matter where you are "evil" has bad connotation, wouldn't people who are "evil" not want to admit to themselves that they're evil? Like wouldn't Darth Vader say he's on the "Right Side" of the Force" instead of the "Dark Side" because "Dark Side" kind of sounds bad?

Do you really think Hitler and his henchman, while say planning the Blitzkreig on Poland, sat around and said things like "and if we take Poland, evil will be on the rise!" followed, of course, by maniacal laughing. Do you think Bin Laden, holed up in whatever villa somewhere in the South of France he's holed up in is sitting around with his cronies and saying things like "we will strike America and beat back the forces of good!" Again, said with lots of maniacal laughing. Or do they sit around and talk about trying to turn Musharref into "evil."

At least in the "Lord of the Rings" movies, they kind of play it off as some sort of Orc Liberation thing….
