I just now realized this man was doing the prequels and LOTR at the same time.. Respect

Ahhh a new lore complication for me to fall asleep to a suprise but a welcome one

Love Count Dooku as a Character. He is One of my favorite prequal era dark side users.

He is an amazing character who was so underutilized.

The tragedy of Dooku is almost as sad as the fall of Anakin Skywalker. If Dooku and Qui gon could have woke up the Jedi Council to their ignorance and fear, so much evil could have been averted. If Dooku had taken Yaddle up on her offer, the Sith could have been extinguished then and there. So many butterfly effects tied to one person.

Count dooku is one of my favorite star wars characters their is so much to know about dooku

4:09 - "The Jedi cannot help the slaves on Tatooine, but they can help the slave masters." That's a very valid criticism of the Jedi Council on Dooku's part. However, by choosing to become Sidious' useful idiot, he aligned himself with the very Evil that created slavery *in the first place.* So in the end he was no better than that which he professed to oppose.

Christopher Lee has that old school studio presence in every scene. Standing still, even his posture and expression say "I'm important ". It's hard to capture in the animation but they get it right from time to time

One of the few time the actor that portrays the character is probably even more bad ass than the character himself. Dooku was awesome but Christopher Lee was epic.

I have been taught so many life lessons through Star wars. The cycle of abuse is shown masterfully through this storyline. The force is the answer in all ways

I thank you very much for this video! Depression has been kickin my ass and this along with my Game of thrones universe are keeping me from being all fucked upside

Count Dookoo was so well written, Sifo Dias is also very interesting as nearly everything goes back to him somehow.

Thanks for the video, Dooku is my favorite character.

"it was this exact moment, where the Jedi decide to assassinate dooku, where they have gone beyond the point of no return". Nothing good comes from compromising in order to achieve victory. You are never fighting purely against flesh and blood. You are always combatting evil. When you choose to act in evil ways, you are letting the actual enemy inside the gates, giving them a seat at the table, and beginning to take their advice.

There you are!

I can't be mad at dooku. He knew the jedi were boned, and he wanted to gain his own life like quigon. Super smart, and was honestly so much of a stright shooter that he literally told obiwan the literal game plan, but it reminds me of jack sparrow trying to take the ship in the first movie telling the guards im here to take this ship and go pillage my filthy black heart out. Obiwan shouldve atleast looked into this even if he wasn't sure of it being true, all he had to do was spy on the chancellor for a couple weeks.

I just pulled into work. I was wondering what to listen to... And BAM!! THANK YOU!

3 hours of dooku!!! Oh stuppy you spoil us!! ❤❤❤❤

Of all of the Baneite Sith, Dooku is my fav.

Just shows how crazy the Jedi masters were. You have a child full of potential , but emotionally confused. Surely that’s when you need a master the most

I said Dooku went easy on Obi-Wan each time they fought. The first fight on Geonosis saw Dooku slice him to hinder him. I don't think Dooku was planning to kill him obviously. I think Dooku was contemplating as he twirled the blade before moving to come down on Kenobi but I do believe he would have stopped even if Anakin had blocked it. On the Invisible Hand, Dooku could have stabbed Kenobi in the chest or cut off his head when he broke his force shield and choked him mid air but he threw him and hindered him again. Dooku didn't try to kill him

Excellent video!! I especially love this deep dive lore to fall asleep to!

Awesome, love everything y'all do. Keep it going.

Nice, Ive been waiting for something like this, love Dooku

Oh!

Dooku was unable to kill Kenobi on the Invisible Hand due to the fact Kenobi is in parts IV, V, and VI. The part about Dooku maybe caring a little bit happens to fit in nicely however. 😂

Just wanted to say this video was a banger, thanks for making it

Thx bro good shit Keep it up

thanks, i didnt see the video in my notifications til tonight but i asked for dooku or qui gon lore a while back and here it is. so awesome im sure it wasnt just cause i asked but hey its nice to think it.

This compilation has been gleaning unto me so much more depth within The Phantom Menace story, and it's very much a shame that movies are only capable of telling fractions from these wonderful tales.

great job and information about Dooku)))

You know what’s wrong with this channel? it’s NEVER ENOUGH!! We NEED more E.V. in life!!

Favorite character lore video less gooo

Sir Christopher Lee was a total tough-guy and brilliant creative-intelligence in a gentlemanly, classy, and elevated way full of dignity and masculine-elegance: epic actor, champion-fencer, former special-forces, philanthropist-one of the ultimate expressions of manliness to ever grace the stage and screen. 😄🤺

Dooku also known as Tyrannus was much more fleshed out in Legends both with his powers, skills, intellect, potential, character, background, elegance, class, as well as accolades compared to his Canon half both as a Jedi And Sith as are most other Legends figures compared to there Canon versions oh yeah.

Star wars pre Disney was amazing

Hopefully this video goes a long way on educating the uninitiated with Dooku. Sad that so many people see him as a jobber for the Jedi & even his own peers. The only pure swordsman in Star Wars wasn't weak or anything like that, his only weakness was trusting the wrong man.

doku is one of my favorite characters he´s story is joust ART

2,000 views and 12,000 likes The dark side of the force leads to so unnatural abilities I guess

Topics for videos: 1. times that the Clones lost 2. times that the allies of the Jedis lost 3. Times that a lightsaber was damaged or lost

Ah, yes. Fine literature

I've never seen Dooku as a jedi, but I like how he was as a sith. To take on Yoda even.

Love a long lore video

2:41:47 This explains a lot. I always wondered why Dooku seemed distressed when both his hands were chopped off and he was about to be executed. It makes sense now.

Hey right before bed time. Enjoy My watch time while I sleep🥰

youre a legend

Great stuff

Yes, I did the Duku eps in Tales were my favorites!

Thanks for showing how tragic a character Count Dooku was and his overshadowed impact on the narrative of the Republic

Dooku is a great force user and the Jedi failed him like they failed the people

I really want there to be a "what if?" book series that goes over what events may have transpired had Qui-Gon not died. Dooku may have remained a Jedi, Anakin may not have fallen to the dark side; hell, they may have even discovered that Palpatine was Darth Sidious and stopped the Clone Wars (and thus Order 66) from happening. Once you learn more about the story beyond what you see at surface level in the movies, you really begin to learn just how pivotal Qui-Gon's death was to the fate of the galaxy, and just how many consequences can be tied back to it.

good video for a car ride

Much as it causes me real pain, credit must be given where due - _Tales of the Jedi_ is good to great. Why can't all Disney SW be like this? Dooku is certainly a much more morally complex character than Palpatine - who moves from spoiled rich kid to full on sociopath is one smooth leap. But he's still a villain. In many ways Herman Goering was an attractive personality. He still sold his soul to evil. Dooku ain't so different is he? A man who started off noble and quickly became one of the worst criminals ever seen; and the servant of criminal even greater than he was.

Almost 3 hours in and I just now realized that clip of Obi-Wan and Anikan fighting Dooku on Oba Diah had one clip of Anikan and Obi Wan clashing blades when they both miss Dooku and accidentally lock blades with each other.

He is both my favorite Sith and Jedi.

Darth Sidious was a Master manipulator. He decided he no longer needed to keep Count.

I look forward to when Tales of the Jedi comes out on Blu-ray

I need to find Duku Jedi Lost perhaps an audiobook at the library.

I honestly think dooku is must people represented to an extreme degree. We all wish to do good until it’s not possible and then we readjust and do what we must.

Dooku's record isn't squeaky clean, just squeaky.

He puts the Do in Dooku!

I felt the Kaiju in that roar 😳

It’d be great to see the young Sifo Dias and Dooku have some adventures together

Count Duooku🎃 was also #TDBank💳 card holder but everyone around him had no clue about his role😔... 🌎💘💰

Sideous had this sith trick going on when anakin had the blades to his neck to where even if he wanted to speak he couldnt

If Dooku would have gotten the perfect chance to betray Sidious it would had been before he decided to send a fleet to Coruscant due to His master being close to be detected by the Jedi. He showed at multiple occasions that he is capable of such a betrayal. Once Sidious is dead he can has nothing that holds him back to take over the Universe. Dooku lost so many valuable resources due to his Masters Game to play both sides.

So people thought Dooku tried to kill a Jedi Master. But in the films, the council (well Ki Ad Mundi) stated that “He’s a political idealist not a murderer”

“I’m sorry, *why* can’t you come into work today?”

anakin vs prime dooku wouldve been a fight to see

Like anything the right tool for the job , but surely all masters are required to know the basics of all forms. And specialise in one ☝️ Just use bits of what you need. Dooku and Vader are great examples of this. Also necessary to know other forms to fight against them. Boy the rule of two Sith did a number on the Jedi even effected the way they fight

Is their a video were qui-gon ghost visits dooku instead of yoda in the clone Wars?

No problem I’ll get back on it and see how I go lll Be back on it soon as I can I will let

So what's the back story of there being two Greyskull swords that came with HeMan & Skeletor, that would combine for some reason? Non of the shows ever explained

1:49:12 I think Sidious was in his early 60s come Attack of the Clones

Man, I wish everyone can hear the beauty of battle… there is a love like no other… I’m a short person and obviously with a short person attitude but, man to die in something not only with passion but in battle does not sound glorious but sounds right… at least to me considering I would be fighting for what I believe is right…. Much love to all vets…. Ps most people have lost there survival instincts… I refuse to forget what got us here long term… those men deserve love to.. excuse pls my illiteracy in English…

I also think Count Dooku and Sifo Dias were lovers

I'm sending you manly, sincere and non gay intended sympathy hugs. We had to stop the marathon after this episode when went thought it along with my beloved BF, may he rest in peace, cause I couldn't take it for a week. No spoilers intended. You think this is harsh and you hate Geoffrey Lannister? It gets deep dark into the hells deepest abyss WORSE. nevertheless here I am cause I admire you, Man. You are teaching your, Boy into a Men via Star Wars, and your Rebels reactions with him says a lot of how you are taking serious this job and your reaction to this one on GOT tells us why, how but most importantly that you indeed are doing the Homework. I'm a humble artist who happened to being asked to teach "theatre acting and arts appreciations" in a public school, both my area and my commitment to fulfill at least once in life at Public Service (this is my 6th public service paid with taxes tho, besides directing Mexican Christmas Plays at a Jail with a group of convicts who humbling granted me a scrambled eggs breakfast cooked by them as gratitude for my help and ears, and for a group of Juvenile Delinquency who was by entering the play being sent to a Juvenile Jail among other services). Dude, the apathy parents shows to what their kids watch, listen and read on both ways, the ones who are unrecognized Jewels and the ones who are exposing themselves to things that should at least be explained by an adult to them. Dude, I still rewatching the Red Wedding and thinking humans can be so much more cruel this can be actually a Fairy Tale. I decided not to have children, and my parenthood hurts my soul deep as I'm sure I did the right thing not bringing another life to this cause I would not have an honest logical way to explain this atrocities to a pure soul cause, but that's me being gay, dark skinned, infected with a virus of a pandemic no one cared enough about to yell for a cure as they did with covid before being old enough to vote or drink alcohol believing not everyone has to be a parent. You decided you are meant to and are being responsible for that decision. Courage Man, cause as I said this gets Insanely Forking Worse, but you have to continue and find a way to explain this in a way your Boy can learn to be a better man. At least you took the first step. You showed him you can cry and that's not bad and can be good. World needs parents like you who are attempting do things different, with a goal and best of intentions to keep up, and I'm here to tell you that as a hand extends a water bottle to the exhaust runner on a race. He needs you to don't give up. Fair enough, take a break. It might help you to rewatch the episode through one of those "Bar Reactions", repeat the experience along with others can be strangely satisfying for episodes like this when all you need is a bit of empathy to balance and maybe understand a bit better all that emotions tangled trying to come out and be expressed at same time that is so confussing and disorienting , something my therapist might be watching me with a clear face of "Really? Are you the one to give that advice? REALLY? but also is what I learn from one of my acting coaches who explained the difference of the "movie audience reaction" vs the "theatre audience reaction" and it's effect on both actors and audience. I had him to hold my hand and pamper my sobbing after this episode for at least half an hour and I'm the guy who cried loud in a full cinema with the sacrifice death at the end of Fast and Furious 5. And remember Professor Lupin's prescription for Harry after Dementors attack. Chocolate and your best memories. Sit to watch Legend of the Guardians with your son without videorecord the reaction, for your sake. That might act like a "Happy Memory" to complete the Patronus. You will need to be able to perform that Charm manytimes ahead.

Christopher Lee is also a decendent of Charlamange, who used a curved blade

I have seen the show now it was good but they did have morph not really showing his real face that you see from the original fox show of X-men. The first 2 episodes see his real face especially when jubilee shows his face then changes two senator Kelly and two other characters and you see his face when he was captured and was originally in mister sinister’s hands. But X-men 97 has morph showing him a neutral face almost a kin to the T-1000. In the credits you see morph’s profile card mentioning what what you did about them making him what you said on Twitter/X about morph. This changes his original character in the original show. I see this has changed the stuff we expected and know of X-men. Now that being said there was the issue of Cable’s parentage was changed by X-men97. My understanding is Cable’s parents were Jean Grey and Scott Summers. This had been changed by one of the villains . There some of the animations and they reduced Rogues silhouette ie her curves and the way that the female members looked in comparison to the original. I get that the original style of portraying women in a more curvy light so to speak in both animation and the comics.

Dooku and Maul could have posed a threat I think

2:01:30 Proverbs 16:18 "Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall." Its from the bible. Word for word.

Goood

Lom pike wasnt a jedi he was the leader of the pike cyndicate

great vid Id say Dooku is more of a dark jedi than a sith No other franchise captures the fall of heroes like star wars He was right about the jedis flaws but his solution was corrupted

😅

Dookus are like onions

With a beard of course

He would’ve made a great gray Jedi 😢

Maaan, the people DESERVE 1-3 movie-length “What-If?” story describing Star Wars events if Obi-Wan had fallen to Darth Mail _instead of_ Qui-Gon. This would add so much to the story. If the council denies Qui-Gon training Anakin _again_ it’s believed Qui-Gon would train Anakin himself in exile, and that would create a much more emotionally-healthy Anakin while adding an even stronger tie to Dooku. Dooku could almost replace the Obi-wan character to a degree, but I imagine Qui-gon would’ve been even more vigilant investigating the growing darkness in the universe. Plus, when it came to things like Anakin having nightmares about his mother, Anakin wouldn’t be shot down by Yoda, in fact Qui-gin would’ve likely been like “well, if that’s what the force is telling you, let’s make a visit to mom” allowing Anakin to arrive weeks if not months earlier and being able to save Shmi altogether. And that’s just if Qui-gon didn’t allow prior visits. You could have both Obi-wan & Qui-gon surviving the Mail fight, and if Qui-gon leaves to train Anakin, perhaps Mace Windu takes on the final training for Obi-Wan, and Obi-wan becomes a great Jedi with far more combat prowess than he does in the original story. This would either result in 2 guys(Anakin+Obi-Wan) being elite, progressive, Jedi able to bridge the old Jedi into a Grey Jedi style OR you get a new Malek & Revan, with Obi-Wan learning to access the dark side for combat like Windu and Anakin understanding light cannot exist without a shadow.

The obvious pattern has always been that naturally gifted padawans with strong personalities that think independently never feel like the jedi has enough to offer them!! They tend to feel like they're "better" then what they are being taught and crave more which leads them to the dark side.. if the jedi were able to teach padawans ALL aspects of the force without fear or trepidation. They would mitigate these young gifted padwans from going down that dark path WHILE still being able to teach them WHY some of these powers are so dangerous rather then trying to hide them away and keep then secret!! There is nothing more tempting to a intelligent kid then "forbidden" knowledge!! By taking away the forbidden aspect and openly teaching these things in a controlled manner then much less students would end up falling into the laps of sith lords or teachers with ill intend or hidden agendas!! Just imagine If the council let anakin read thru whatever he wanted to try and aid padme, he would have learned that there isn't some grand hidden route to immortality..he would have been greatly dissapointed about the lack of any true way to "save padme" but he also wouldn't think the jedi were hiding some secret magical fix all ability either. If they told him "look man, this is all that we know that could possibly help padme..all this other stuff over there is some of the crazy sith beliefs but when u read them u will come to realize most of it is crazy bullshit at best, and witchy evil craziness at worst! Either way now u know!".. anakin would have had no reason to go to sidious at that point..its not even because anakin would think the sith could or couldn't help him, rather anakin wouldn't have felt betrayed like the jedi order was actively trying to prevent him from helping his fucking wife!! THAT WAS THE REAL ISSUE!! the mutual distrust between the council and anakin!! It wasn't even about "good guys and bad guy" or "which side is most beneficial".. it was more of a "these fucking ppl I gave my entire life to don't trust me! They are literally roadblocking me from even ATTEMPTING to find a way to save the person I love!! The only person who is even pretending to listen to me is palapatine!"...so by the time he decides to join sidious, it's because he already is emotionally disconnected from the jedi order and in his mind they are leaving him with absolutely ONE fucking option on the table!! He is literally choosing the only option he sees in front of him..he already knows the council won't help him, he knows they don't trust him, he literally has no reason to be loyal!! He always has been a person that is loyal to "people" anyways.. he is loyal to ashoka, loyal to obiwan ect.. if he had to make a choice in saving ashoka or obiwan or the jedi order as a whole, he wouldlnt think twice about saving the individual ppl he cares about over a order that has always looked at his ass sideways!!.. so my point is, it's not just anakin or dooku, it's everyone! The padwans are better off being taught the force as a whole!! No light side or darkside just simply "the force" which at its core is both light AND dark!! If things were done that way from the start and gave the padawans ALL the tools and the TRUST to let them use them as they see fit!! The order would be better off, BALANCED!! as all things should be!

I thought about this yesterday and it came to me that dooku did not lose to anakin but to his age Same as how anakin never beat obi wan Kenobi he also lost because of his age Or because he wanted to

Dooku and Darth Bane have always been my two favorites.

Lom pyke wasn’t a Jedi he was the leader of the pyke syndicate before marg Krim proceeded him due to dooku executing him. Perhaps you where referring to syfo dyas

I have another suggestion Obi-Wan Kenobi

How would Revan and Malak fair vs Dooku and Sidious in just lightsaber combat?

Personally, I never accepted "Tyrannus as a Sith Lord" ... ... Count Dooku is a 'fallen jedi'

Don't care for the take on ordering Dooku's assassin. "Stoop so low"....Killing is how you win wars. As Tarkin corrected noted, the Jedi were terrible Generals because they couldn't do what is necessary to win a war. If the Jedi were supposed to be peaceful monks who swore no violence, there'd be no reason to use a light saber. Nothing but stupidity and self righteousness would think even the Jedi didn't need to kill on occasion. It's like saying that if there were Jedi on Earth and they could have killed Hitler to stop the Holocaust, that they shouldn't do it...just sit back and watch it all happen.

Didn't an old punk band do an album named after him?? *'Dookie'??*

I have a suggestion Luke Skywalker😂

Ive heard this guy explain dookus curved hilt a couple tjmes now and its clear he doesnt really know much about swordfighting or fencing, the single reason a curved hilt is used is for thrusting such as in fencing, all of the reasons yoda was mad still are basically the same though, as fencing and thrusting would have no other benifits aside from combating another lighrsaber wielder and as a thrust is almost strictly meant for killing, i can see why yoda and everyone else would be mad as in their eyes there arent any sith so why woukd you need to study to kill lightsaber wielders so hard and strictly, as the only other lightsaber wielders to them at this point were other jedi, and as everyone had already seen by this point dooku had a pention for unchecked passion and a willingness to duel and possibly even kill other jedi, so i can see why that chouce would raise suspicions... but the the point i was makjng is that the reason for a curved hilt is exclusively that it makes thrustjng as a fencer much easier and gives you more reach, nothing else and as simple as that
