I think overall popularity wise it would go to Sean Connery big time mostly because he use to be James bond and those movies never have an ending. Christopher before the star wars movies wasn't as near as famous as Sean even through he was in alot more movies. Lee seemed to rise pretty quickly as count dooku in star wars attack of the clones and return of the sith, but Sean is known more by the older public way before lee was despite lee is eight years older. Lee didn't become famous until star wars, I have seen him in other movies before star wars but he wasn't the main character unlike Sean was but more of a mid-major character until now.
