Ki-Adi-Mundi vs Darth maul

That's one of the reasons why I kind of laugh at Dooku. Despite how high a regard some people on this forum has for him, he is totally Sideous' lackey in every sense of the word. Totally devoted, totally afraid of him, totally worrisome.

Agreed. Dooku is very powerful but he's not really very threatening or imposing at all. He's old and Sidious' b*tch. As much as I loath TPM, but Maul is more effective as a villian than Dooku imo.

I don't think Dooku ever met Maul. I doubt very much that even if Palpatine had begun initiating Dooku prior to TPM, that he would be introducing his current apprentice to his intended(?) successor. Probably wouldn't have gone over well with Maul.

But given Obi-Wan's testimony on Maul, and Palpatone's own detailed knowledge, it's no wonder that Dooku would have formulated an opinion on him. And given his extreme speciesism in the RotS novel (where this musing takes place), his labeling of a mindless Zabrak apprentice as an "animal" is also no wonder. His enticing of this Clone Wars character to gain power is a no-brainer temptation, and his in-universe consistency would be even more incongruous calling his inferior "animal" predecessor "great" and meant it.

This was once the case in the EU. Now, it's a little different: He wants to overthrow Sidious and is actively seeking to do so, but he is afraid to try it on his own.

So... who did Dooku think Anakin was?

Based on what Lucas has said and the LoE and ROTS novelizations, Dooku was under the impression Sidious was willing to break the Rule of Two once supremacy was achieved.

And, Maul, who had even less individualism and self-esteem then Dooku, could not be lead to think similar?

i'll tell you who was pretty smart: Old Master Sidious. he was pretty smart indeed.

Maul's a bit of a contradiction. Canonically, Sidious goaded Maul into battle rage during his final test before he was officially knighted into the Sith order by threatening to replace him IIRC. But after that, Maul became an obedient tool with no ambition to overthrow him.

He probably wouldn't have given a shit if Palpatine wanted to get another apprentice, so long as Maul didn't have to forfeit his own status/life.

I remember his thoughts in Shadow Hunter were of pure devotion to Sidious.

Good old smart Master Sidious, that's who Maul was thinking about.

Who can blame him? He is rather dreamy.

Spoiler:
And I watched the review of your vaunted Atheist. He supported the notion that Palpatine was, in fact, the most compelling and interesting character in the prequels. This confirms his superiority over Dooku and, by extension, Mark A. Ragnos and Darth Nihilus. Kneel before my Master and swear your eternal allegiance to His Imperial Majesty.

Spoiler:
Kneel to Smart Old Master Sidious, even if Powerful Old Master Skywalker COULD kill him if he wanted.

I've been kneeling at his Highness', TheAmazingAtheist's feet, for some time now.

When given the choice between serving a political and strategic genius who reshaped the galaxy out of a narcissistic compulsion to rule and dominatean altruistic desire to see peace and justice restored to the former Republic and submitting yourself to a heathen, you choose the heathen?

Unbelievable. It's a wonder why His Imperial Majesty bothered to give you damn Canadians free will at all.

Amazing Atheist posts shit videos with shit arguments and is a fat tard.

Totally unwatchable.

No U.
