    I agree, Dunedain1. Do you wish to join this club? If so, just repost the roster and add your name to it.
    Excellent post.

    I do not believe that anyone else could have done a better job at playing the role of Count Dooku than Christopher Lee.
    GL picked the right person.

    True-spoken, prj.


    ...Arise, thread, arise...Count Dooku deserves better than obscurity...

    Indeed, he does. Dooku is one of the characters I'm looking forward to seeing more on in the 3-D CW cartoon coming up. He's almost always been presented (movies, books, comics, and cartoon) as being an intelligent character with wit in his speaking. Gotta love it.

    I completely agree with both of you. Let's get this thread going again.

    I am looking for a new Vice President to help with starting topics and keeping the roster updated. I think RL has greatly taken hold of the individual currently holding that position.
    If anyone is interested, please PM me.

    Thank you.

    Prj1, President

    I was trying to find information about the Count on the Star Wars Wiki, but it seems none is available.

    On the contrary, prj1, there's plenty of info. ;)
    There we go. ;)

    Thanks Rilwen. However, your link doesn't work for me.
    I wanted the info to get new ideas for topics to discuss in this club.

    There's plenty to discuss. Tyranus is my second favourite Prequel Sith, just below Sidious. A really intriguing character.

    How much of the EU do people know, around here? Because my favourite Tyranus moments are usually EU moments, like his participation in the Battle of Galidraan, or him duelling Mace Windu at Boz Pity.

    But the concept that he was Qui-Gon's Master seems to interest me a great deal. The 'master-apprentice' tree from Dooku to Darth Caedus is intriguing. Dooku is, in a way, a grandfather figure to the greatest Sith and Jedi in the history of the galaxy...

    Sinnre, hi there! Great to see you in here, my friend.
    I'm still catching up on EU events, so please, enlighten us. Feel free to present a topic for discussion.

    I was trying to remember what our great Count thought about using more than one lightsaber in battle, but I don't remember what he said.
    I remember reading it somewhere.
    Can someone help?

    :)

    I don't recall what he said, per se, but I do recall that he considered it inelegant, and beneath him to do so.

    Yes, Sinre, Dooku's linked to a lot of other Force-users. Via Qui-Gon, then Obi-Wan (And Yoda upon Qui-Gon teaching him to become a Force ghost), we get the training of Anakin, who becomes Vader and starts Lumiya's training, and Luke. And with Jacen/Caedus taught by Luke and Lumiya...
    Well, the line of descent is interesting.

    My favourite Dooku moments are in Dark Rendezvous, though I don't have it with me and thus can't quote some of the bits I like most.

    Thanks, Rilwen. I haven't read "Yoda: Dark Rendezvough" yet, but I plan to soon.

    I am looking for more information about Count Dooku as a Jedi. I find that interesting.

    :)

    Thanks for all of that great info via PM, Rilwen.

    Our favorite Count had an interesting life as a Jedi.
    One of the things that was especially interesting to me was the fact that Count Dooku never trusted anyone else after being betrayed.

    He had allies, but not close friends.
    It is understandable though.

    What is your favorite line from the films spoken by Count Dooku?

    I'm really enjoying Dooku/Tyranus in the new The Clone Wars TV series. :)

    So am I. Our favorite Count is behaving very Sithly in this SW series.

    Indeed, he is. Is it just me, or does Lord Tyranus look a heck of a lot cooler/scarier in this series than he does in the films?

    I think our Count is very Sithly and awesome in the Star Wars Clone Wars series and movie. The person voicing his character is excellent.

    I have no doubt he allowed himself to be captured by the Weequay's. No doubt.

    That's my assumption as well. It's only way I can make the episode make sense. :p

    I agree with you as well, Sinnre. That incident didn't just happen. Our favorite Count planned his capture.
