How is it that Count Dooku in Revenge of the Sith have "evil glowing eyes" like Anakin and the Emporer? is it because he sucks!

Darth_Nefarus
I think it's because he's more committed to his own goals than the Sith goals. Anakin only has them when he's completely filled with the darkside, like when he kills the seperatists or when he screams at Obi-Wan.

darthvader_fan
yea kinda thinkin that to and i think that he sucks on ice too

Darth_Nefarus
He's one of the most badass Jedi of all time dude, he far from sucks. He's just more into his own ideals than serving the darkside.

darthvader_fan
you are so right. I dont like him but he is a good leader of the sepratists until anakin killed him. sliced his head right off. He and Grievous make a good bad ass assassin.

Wickerman
He was:

1. a strategic genius
2. A devious scheming man
3. An excellent user of the force, the only one in the PT AND OT to use lightning other than Sidious
4. An excellent duelist

and a few more

He most definitely didn't suck ass.

I liked him because he had a lot of style. Archaic fighting style, an arrogance about him, he was a sweet villain as far as I was concerned.

yep. And the reasons i posted earlier +

5. being a racist
6. being arrogant

etc. etc = an excellent tyrant. Which is why the name Darth Tyrannus i think suited him perfectly

I'd say it may sound that way to us. But to the SW Galaxy i bet Luke sounds like a really weird and freaky name.

It's true; doku (doe-coo) means poison in Japanese, but I doubt that's where Lucas got the character's name.

that's because he does things correctly. Cool and calculating, even though he's evil to the bone. Just like a strategic leader should be.

that actually sounds true










yea right i think that he was just too scared. His lightsaber is very cool though i can admit that

Dooku wasn't evil enough.

Captain REX
Dooku wasn't supposed to be mad, raging evil. He had his own niche carved out among the Sith. Maul and Palpatine were the evil, scary ones, Maul more scary and Palpatine more evil. Vader was tragic, yet powerful.

Dooku was the arrogant, charismatic one.

darthvader_fan
but maybe dooku wasnt evil enough to have the glowing red eyes, maybe palpatine didnt teach dooku enough of the force to do so

Travis Hicks
Because not all Sith Lords have those eyes.

Canadadude
I thought Dooku was one of the best characters in the PT. I thought it was a shame the Lucas did not use him more in the story. I thought they killed him off to quickly. Also seeing Dooku leave the council in TPM would have been cool.

Tangible God
Yeah he died a little too quickly, but to see CHRISTOPHER f*ckin LEE walking off the set in TPM, when nobody is supposed to even know about the character yet would be too much of a giveaway and letdown to fans about GL's penmenship.

mauler
I think Dooku was an old, knowledgeable Jedi Master and he had been corrupted by the power of the dark side but he hadn't experimented the dark side as Maul and Sidious, they seem much more deeply evil.

DarthLazious
I agree Dooku should have had Sith eyes in ROTS.

I think Lucas has just read this thread and thought "D'oh! Another continuity error! Never mind, I'll correct it when I release the special edition versions of the PT".

Perhaps for the same reason Supreme Chancellor Palpatine a.k.a Sith Lord didn't have Sith eyes until Mace came in.

JenR1215
Becuase he wasnt as RAGED as them 2.... i guess.
