[clears throat] Please excuse me for this thread that isn't really lit. related...

Well, I asked for the script of the scene where Obi-Wan overhears Dooku and the separatists talking while walking (not the 'table' scene) over at the AotC forum, but as you can see here I wasn't very successful.

So I wondered if my lit friends would be nicer and help me there.

Could you please let this thread open until I get an answer ?? That'd be nice, thanks.

Edit: You have your answer, so I'm going to lock this.

Okay.

Yay, what a big help I am.

Xizor: I can probably type up the novelization scene for you, if you want.

An intresting question about that actually. In the movie Poggle speaks in Basic when he gives the line about making the new droid armies. Why does he speak Geonosian at every other time?

Valyn : that'd be a good start, yes.

And actually, yes, I wondered that too Wedge. But I wasn't sure it was Poggle... I wondered if it wasn't Wat Tambor, but then it didn't make a lot of sense... Especially given the fact that Poggle's supposed to be a recognizable Marton Csokas (Sp?) speaking...

Salvatore says its Poggle speaking in the novelization. Valyn's offer made me remember that.

MJedi posted it at the AOTC board :

From the screenplay included in the Art of Star Wars: Episode II book:

Count Dooku: Now, we must persuade the Commerce Guild and the Corporate Alliance to sign the treaty.

Nute Gunray: What about the Senator from Naboo? Is she dead yet? I'm not signing your treaty until I have her head on my desk.

Count Dooku: I am a man of my word, Viceroy.

Poggle: With these new battle droids we've built for you, Viceroy, you'll have the finest army in the galaxy.

-END-

(In the movie it was the Techno Union representative that said the last line, not Poggle.)

So it seems that Poggle doesn't speak basic at all in the movie after all.

Xizor: So, I don't have to do all that typing now?
