AOTC Chapter 31: Dooku's Separatist Plot DISCUSSION

Tyranus the Hutt with a Harry Lime reference. I nod in approval to thee.

 

"In Italy for thirty years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo Da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love, they had five-hundred years of democracy and peace. And what did that produce? The cuckoo-clock!"

Regarding the chapter in question, I actually like the techno-union representative, and the very odd manner in which he adjusts that strange knob on his chest. I thought that Dooku was given a forceful, commanding presence by Christopher Lee, who lends considerable gravitas to scenes such as this that are (politically) quite dense; he speaks with such ease and authority. Obviously, the introduction of the Droid factory is key as later it factors into a major action scene.

Moleman - Why do you need more than one account on this website?

 

Yeah, I have to say, I REALLY liked the shot of Obi-Wan looking at the droid factory in this scene.

It looks like Obi-Wan is up on the "surface" of the earth, getting a glimpse into hell.

I thought Lucas should have left the droid factory at that, but that's a story for another time.

The Techno Army guy looks AND sounds like 'The Terrible Tedium' from 'The Phantom Tollbooth'.

 

Strike that, reverse; I mean the Banking Clan guy looks AND sounds like 'The Terrible Tedium' from the film 'The Phantom Tollbooth'.

Could there be a connection?

(edit: am i digging up dead threads or is here the right place to post this?)

 

An average scene with no real flaws or pros for me.
