We've seen Christopher Lee and Sir Ian McKellan face off as Sauron and Gandalf in LOTR, but now let's see their alter-egos in action! Movie versions.

I take Magneto.

dunno

Dooku thanks to the Force

Dooku seem to be one powerful b!tch. But I dont know if he can beat Magneto, his lightsabers handle is metal and would be out of the fight. If he can use the force in defense of the power of magnetism then he might have a chance. If not Magneto should beat him.

Well for every object that Dooku struggles to hurl at Magneto, he will get it hoofed back at him faster than he can blink.

Magneto is powerful enough to deal with any Star Wars character, quite clearly. The force is overrated.

-AC Even the nonmetal objects?

Most likely now.

Seeing as he's dropped the Master of Magnetism moniker and just taken it to levels of controlling almost everything.

Well, not "him". More so his writer. Even older Magneto would win.

If you throw a big enough handful of plastic poker chips at Mags, he's toast.

Magneto can control the entire em spectrum and has influence with all the forces. He has always been able to levitate nonmetal objects. Force lightning is obviously ineffective. Telekinesis can possibly penetrate his force field but even so Magneto will be firing off high octane energy bolts at Dooku immediately. Dooku is extremely outclassed

remembering that this thread is about the movie Magneto, i think Dooku would win

Oh movie Magneto. I think he still scrapes a win what with the ability to stop the speeding to the ground Black Bird with little effort

If it's movie Magneto and Dooku, it doesn't belong on this board

hmmm...I'll take Magneto, even though I'm a bit of a Star Wars fanboy. It would be Magneto's magnetic stuff vs. Dooku's low-to-mid level telekinesis. I can't see Magneto losing this one.

Point of interest: Chistopher Lee has been in more staged sword fights (in live plays or movies) than anyone in history. Thought that was fun.

even more than Touche Turtle?

umm.... this is the verses section of the comic book MOVIES....

No it's not. This is the comics battles board.

you do reallize that this entire forum is about movies, right?

Yes but there's a comic book movie forum just around that there corner. I personally don't care what you use...I'm not a mod. But you can see above the confusion it can cause if you're going by movie versions and people are giving comic answers.

Another overrated Star Wars character who thanks his "reputation" on, let me think, ONE fight-scene ? A fight he almost lost lol.

(Christopher Lee rocks by the way.)

Magneto would take this. His powers are on a different scale really.

Yoda is arguably more powerful than Dooku, yet when the big metal cyclinder fell over, Yoda really had to put some effort in to levitate it.

Magento can lob around larger, heavier objects with less effort.

I'd say that Magneto would chop Dooku to bits with his own lightsabre...

Demi - Quit being so anal and just offer an opinion.

There was really no other forum to put this...aside from the 'Star Wars Versus' forum, and I don't think Magneto would have been welcomed there. Besides, since 'George Bush vs. etc.' and 'Osama vs. Saddam' threads seem copacetic, I don't see the problem with this one.

You can compare the two characters in the movies or comics, it doesn't matter to me.

Why do people seem to think the movie magneto is more powerful than comic book magneto?

Who said that?

comic is more poweful... comic controlls magnetism... movie controls metal... BIG difference

Dosnt magnetism control metal?

yes, but it also controls... say... everything that has both protons and electrons.... which is everything made of atoms... which is...hey, everything that is physical!

I didnt realize Magneto was so overpowered.

Movie Magneto controlls magnetism I'm sure. He's just retro styled. Back when all he used it for was controlling metal.
