The Official Count Dooku/Lord Tyranus Fanclub!!

May I please join this fanclub?

 

Welcome, prj.

 

Thanks Rilwen.


Count Dooku is my favorite Sith in the prequil trilogy.
His voice, combat style, and everything else about him set him apart from all other Sith.

 

His voice is what captured me the most. I absolutely love Christopher Lee's voice.

 

Arise.

I'm not sure what happend to this thread, but we should get some activity in it.

 

Me too.

 

Yes, I agree. We need a topic.

 

May I please have your attention?

I have done some user searching, and I have discovered some very disturbing results.
Veraden, the original creator of this fine club has not been on the JC since December of 2005. Cmdr_Gabe_E's last post in here, as well as on the JC Forums was May 29, 2006. I have received permission from Strilo to take over as the new leader of the club.
As of now, I am doing some back reading to learn what has been discussed previously. Please be patient. I will have a topic up soon.
Thank you.

Hello, fellow Count Dooku fans.

I have completed all of the back reading for this thread.
I am ready to hit the ignition and blast off, so brace yourselves. You have a blind person piloting the Count Dooku/Lord Tyranus spaceship.

Anyone wishing to assist me in running this fine club, please PM me.
That person would be Vice President.
Veraden will always be recognized as the founder of this club, and if and when he should return and wish to reclaim his position as President or leader of this club, I will step down immediately.
I have come up with an idea. How does everyone feel about having a Count Dooku story contest?
First, we need to get this place active again, but I thought that would be a good idea.

Your thoughts?
I would like to say that concerning the Dooku Verses Windu duel topic, I believe the Count would win.
I think Mace is highly overrated. I just thought I would put my 2 cents in.

 

Dooku rocks, but he couldn't take Mace IMO. If he could, why wouldn't he try and take out Sidious which Mace was very capable of doing?

 

Simple. If Dooku took out Sidious, the Sith (well, Dooku) would no longer have control of the Republic. A very dangerous situation at the least. The CIS was just an excuse for a war, and Dooku would have betrayed them later to join Sidious' new Empire. Then is when he would make his move and usurp power, in typical Sith fashion.

However, despite being a huge Dooku fan, I must admit that I'm not fully convinced he could take out Sidious, either. I think Sidious may have fought Mace half-heartedly anyway, and even Master Yoda could not best him.

 

Dooku had his own vision. He just got killed before he could put his plans to make that dream come true into action.
Everything has it's own time and place, and that was what the Count was waiting for.

I will post the roster soon.

 

I've not read any of the novels. How did his plan differ from what I posted? (If it's about that going on vacation thing, I don't buy that. )

 

I didn't mean that it was different from what you posted earlier.
I haven't read the novels either, but I plan to ASAP.
The library in the state where I live has lots of Star Wars books on tape.
I want to request "Dark Rendezvous" and "Labyrinth of Evil".


I have a busy day tomorrow, but I'll have us a new topic posted by Monday or Tuesday. I hope to have the roster posted Monday or Tuesday as well. RL calls tonight and tomorrow.

 

I know that wikipedia is not the best source for SW information, but I found something interesting over there while I was reading about the Count.

Count Dooku's lightsaber design is inspired by Filipino native weaponry, like the barong. I was in a hurry at the time, so I didn't take the time to study this weapon.
Btw, RL is calling once again.

 

I agree on both points. Sidious was using Dooku, yes, but the apprentice can also use the master in some ways. Dooku was smart enough to realize that he would need Sidious to finish out the plan before taking over. Problem is, Palpatine betrayed Dooku before he was finished taking over the Galaxy. Dooku didn't think that would happen.

I do think Mace vs. Dooku would be a good duel. If I had to guess who would win, I would say Dooku. Yes, I'll admit I like the Count better than Windu.

How does everyone feel about having a Count Dooku story contest?

I don't know if I have the time right now. (Finals next week) However, I have written a few Fan-fics and enjoy writing. It might be fun to write something about the Count.

 

Its says on the databank, Dooku was able to best Windu, i think in a one on one fight Dooku would win.

 

I completely understand, Palpy560. School is why I haven't posted a club roster yet. I'm studying for a test on Friday.
After that, There is no more school for me until after the holidays ar over. During those two weeks, I really want to work on my plans for this club.

BTW, I checked with the Mississippi State Library to see if they had "Yoda: Dark Rendezvous".
They said no.

 

Heheh, I was wasting time in Books-A-Million once, and floated to the Star Wars section. I was quite tempted to buy Dark Rendezvous, but decided to pass. I did sneak a tiny read of it, though. In case you'd want to avoid a possible spoiler, Yoda and Dooku talking, trying to turn each other to the other side, after Yoda sneaked his way into whereever Dooku was. Yoda asking how turning to the Dark Side would augment the power he already has in the form of leader of the Jedi Order, and Dooku noting how fearsome and near-omnipotent Yoda would become if he fell to the Dark Side.

 

Sounds exciting.
The thought just occured to me.
What if Count Dooku had turned back to the Light Side of the Force?
What do you think he would have been like?

Personally, I'm glad he didn't return to the Jedi. I think the Dark Side is the best place to be.

 

What if Count Dooku had turned back to the Light Side of the Force?
What do you think he would have been like?

I don't think he would have turned back. Unlike Anakin, there wasn't much that Dooku seemed to care about. (That we know of)

However, I think at one time, he was a great Jedi Master. One of the best in the order. I think Yoda was proud of him which might be why he was so angry/upset that Dooku fell to darkness.

That might be why Mace was so quick to deffend him in the opening scenes of Episode II. They were clearly well known to each other at one time as Dooku's "Master Windu." in the arena suggests.

But I think he always had a dark side. What's more, I think Yoda knew this but could never quite control young Dooku's anger. It's rather sad I think. Not quite as epic as Anakin's fall from grace, but along those same lines.

 

To add to what Palpy560 said, Dooku was simply too proud to turn back, even if he regretted turning. If anything, I think he would have become disillusioned with both the Sith and Jedi Orders, and maybe have gone away on a long, nice, vacation . . .

Okay, let's talk about Serenno, the Count's home world. What a beautiful place!.
Count Dooku's castle is there. However, I think that castle should have been a palace.Only the biggest and best for our top Sith, right?
