Trials: Dooku vs Sidious

That is a good point, and I agree that scripts can be ridiculous. I was rather think there was extended footage that I haven't seen. (I haven't gotten the DVD yet.)

In any case, what else explains Sidious being disarmed? Unlike the AOTC script saying Dooku is crap (Which is clearly an exaggeration on the part of the script) Sidious went from having a lightsaber to... not having one.

Ah. But he -could- have simply ended the fighting, hung his saber on his belt or wherever the hell he keeps it, and decided range attacks would be better. 😛

Yeah, and it doesn't help that we don't know how Yoda fell from that pod.

In any case I wish there was one credible, unexaggerated source for all this, because arguing SW makes my head hurt.

Ianus, we must consult the all-knowing deity of Star Wars. No, not your false god, Artoo, but the true lord of knowledge. Darth Clumsy the Klutz.

What about Darth Hitler, the EEEEEVILEST name in the galaxy?

He got banned.

Damn. Hitlerities everywhere, sing a dirge for your fallen brother.

He was a sock of some noob moron from Brazil who always made threads like "1.000.000 battel droids versus Qui-Gon as a Jude".

I am not kidding on that one.

Artoo is not a false god. You have proven yourself as a false entity by saying this.

*zap!*

Where'd he go?

Qui-Gon as a Jude

BWAHAAHAHA!

*Blinks* Escape who?

YODA blocks the lightning and throws PALPATINE backwards off the podium.

The energy bolts begin to arc back on the Emperor. It looks as if the Dark Lord is doomed.

YODA unleashes a ferocious assault on PALPATINE, causing him to almost go over the edge. The Dark Lord drops his lightsaber

YODA uses the Force to throw DARTH SIDIOUS back, knocking him clear over his desk and onto the floor in a heap.

DARTH SIDIOUS flies through the air, cape flapping, heading toward the exit.

ROTS Script: Lines are NOT in Order

Sure, you can say Yoda defeated Dooku by the AOTC Script, but here's the question:

Can you say that about Sidious as well?

Sorgo, lol, don't bring the argument here. Just listen to Faunus's immensely coordinated advice. And, about the podium, we never saw that happen. Again. The scripts are only good if they reflect the movie.

So which is more canon? The scripts, written by Lucas, and his direct vision, or the movies?

Well, I'd say the movies. Because I'm looking at the script now, at IMSDB.com, and I'm seeing a lot of remarks as well that could be argued that Sidious is Yoda's equal.

The movies first, since they are set in stone if you will. Gl with a grain of salt. He's notoriously ambigious and for a reason. Scripts would be right after that.

Right... He only flew back forward after he had a grim expression on his face.

Hmm...

Sorgo, lol, just drop it. You won't like what happens when I bring the script into play on the Anakin vs Dooku topic. You might just regret bringing it up at all. I suggest you read the thread on that duel. 🙄

Oh, it's on now...

Not really. I was just messing, anyway. 😛 But that script is full of some tweaks. Read where Anakin fights Dooku.
