Full Series "The Lost Missions" in Germany (SPOILERS!!!!!!!)

Many of which would be the contrived explanations and bridges I referenced earlier.

 

Angelina:

Your point is duly noted. Although it now seems to be possible that Sifo-Dyas was killed at a time when Palpatine was already chancellor, and Darth Tyranus Sidious' apprentice, it's apparently so that the original alliance/negotiations between Tyranus and the Pykes were at a time when Valorum was still in office, Darth Maul still 'alive' and Sidious' apprentice, Darth Plagueis still alive and Sidious' master, and Master Dooku still a respected member of the Jedi Order.

This makes it very likely that Dooku was actively pursuing his own shady agenda under the alias 'Tyranus' while he was still a member of the Jedi Order (as I've suggested earlier, but then in connection with the possible murder of Sifo-Dyas during the term of Valorum). It's easily imaginable that he entertained his own dark plans of galactic domination even before he joined Darth Sidious. In fact, it always seemed as if Darth Tyranus was more of a self-taught Sith than Sidious' apprentice. The way Luceno depicted Palpatine and Dooku's early conversations in DP strongly suggests that Dooku was a Sith in all but the name when he finally joined Sidious. They shared the same world view even before they became partners.
In that sense, it's not impossible - and would actually be very interesting - that Dooku killed Sifo-Dyas on his own rather than on Sidious' orders. He could have intended to usurp and use the clone army for his own purposes, which by then could have included 'the rescue' of the Republic on his terms and the (violent) reformation of the Jedi Order.

 

New TV ad from the latest episodes - quality isn't good, but it's better than nothing.

 

Just seen the episode involving Yoda visiting Dagobah:

This will contain spoilers

Way too much like Anakin's vision on Mortis; saw Jedi fighting Clones, Anakin (it seems) killing his fellow Jedi and the deleted scene in the Jedi Temple from RoTS (which Anakin kills Shaak Ti). Then the name "Sidious" is repeated several times, with his cloak faced appearing at the end. Mace Windu is also shown being killed by Darth Sidious.

Again, way too similar to Mortis.

 

Have the final episodes come out yet? Don't feel like reading through the whole thread. Because I have an interesting theory about how they could tie up Darth Maul's fate and the Yoda arc at once.

Spoiler

Assuming Yoda faces "Sidious", Palpatine can have Darth Maul pretend to be Sidious and have Yoda kill him.

 

Somehow I don't think when people often argued "why didn't the Jedi see it coming?" about ROTS, they meant it literally.

 

No Maul. Sorry.

 

Woah.
