Over the last few days I've been watching quite a few "action packed thrill rides", and one thing just doesn't sit right with me. Where do they get these henchmen from? Do they have to apply for these jobs? Like, did Oddjob have to give Goldfinger a resumé? How did he find out about the position? Was there an add in the newspaper?

Is that how these things work? What made them want to become henchmen anyway? When they were in school and the teacher asked them what they wanted to be when the grew up, they probabley didn't say, "I want to be a bodyguard for an evil warlord". These are just some of the things that kind of get me about the whole henchman thing.
What about the drones, like stormtroopers? What did the empire do for them when they died? I really don't think they had proper burials for them. Hell, they didn't even give Spock a proper burial they just shot him into space. Sure they said a few nice words about him, but do you really think that if that's all they did for Spock that they would do more for your average stormtrooper?
At this time I would probably inquire about who builds the hideouts, but if you want an answer to that question just watch Clerks. I could repeat the whole scene, but I really don't have that kind of time.
One last thing: do you think these guys have unions? There's enough of them, you'd think they'd at least try. These evil leaders have to have some kind of respect for their workers trying to stand up for their rights. I bet they at least have some kind of plan for glasses. It makes sense, because these evil leaders wouldn't want their workers to screw up some plan for world domination just because they couldn't tell the difference between a 3 and an 8. And besides these leaders must have some kind of compassion, it's not like they're Walmart or anything.
