well i watched The Clone Wars on dvds last night for the first time and found the last 15 mins very exiting which is something i never really got from the PT
i just find it typical of Lucas to put out two movies with a character who is in league with the major villian and not clarify that the character knows the villian has two sides
maybe he should have said something pre decapitation to clear it up
its a bit daft a villian risking the delivery of the Death Star plans with someone who nearly gets wasted by his own "grand army"
AOTC is an average movie and i dont know why Dooku didnt make a more discreet getaway on foot and hide out for a while instead of jumping on a speederbike which may as well have had a big sign saying LOOK ITS ME COUNT DOOKU then leading everyone to his hangar where his ship was.
Its a good job that Yoda was prepared to save the lives of 2 Jedi(yeah i know one of them was "the chosen one"but at that point it was still in doubt) thus putting the galaxy in jepoardy instead of defeating Dooku or else that would have been it for the third film in the movies formerly known as the STAR WARS prequels.

i just think AOTC and lose all sense of reason
understandable since most of it was time-wasting cgi filler and crappy dialogue with a couple of decent action scenes. i can honestly say that ill most likely never watch that movie again. its like that godzilla remake from 15 years ago. yeah the effects are cool, and its certainly worth watching once, but once you've seen it there really is no reason to revisit it...ever.

He needed to escape as quickly as possible, if he stayed longer, republic space forces could cut of the planet and quarantine it, then he would have no chance of escaping, this way he used the heat of battle as distraction to make his gateway.
Dooku could also strike Yoda when he was helping Anakin and
Obi-Wan.
In the case of 'not recognizing Palpy as Sids via hologram,' Palpatine was usually always very softspoken and kindly and so on, so nobody would suspect the old man to be a sinister killing machine who ordered the death of millions and so on. Plus, can't see under the hood, I suppose. At least, not with the flickery hologram stuff.

Why did he park his ship so far away anyway? Oh wait, then wouldn't have that wonderfully crappy CGI chase.
Yeah, that bothered me too, Gunray had his ship right there at the command center and escaped immediately, but no Dooku had to go to another hangar, just to have the lightsabers duels.

the voice is similar when Palpatine speaks loudly in the senate and that chin........dead giveaway
my old TPM Sideous figure is a dead cert for Palps in a hood n all its just a shame we didnt get a good look at him without the hologram in TPM to fully back up my comments........its not one of movie histories greatest disguises is it
its almost on a par with Clark Kent
i guess Maul knew he was Palps too then
