Dooku belonged to another time. In the Republics past his abilities and beliefs would've been heralded and couldve been the greatest of the Jedi. But he was born in a time were corruption was inescapable. Dookus story ultimately shows how even the nobilist of people can become twisted.
I've grown to absolutely adore Christopher but despite all of his great roles (Dracula, Summerisle, Sauramon, etc.) I still think Dooku is my favourite, he just pulls off such a unique and interesting take on the Sith.
It breaks my heart how little he showed remorse to his family friends and protégés. But all in all, Count Dooku was an awesome addition to the Star Wars franchise!
He's a lot more grey in the Legends continuity and displayed nobler traits, and he didn't fully fall to the Dark Side until the last year or so of the Clone Wars. Also Ventress was never a Dathomiri Night Sister, but a Rattataki who fell after her master died, and by the end of the war about half of her was reinforced with cybernetics and simply left the Core after Dooku betrayed her, and disappeared into the Outer Rim.
I don't think so. He was a pompous ass. He's the guy that gets super woke about the environment, joins Greenpeace, finds they're not perfect, starts burning down all their buildings and ships, and eventually donates the family fortune to frickin Palpatine here... He played at being a villain but he never really tried to fix the Jedi. He made a lot of accusations but couldn't follow a plan or provide one. He clearly dabbled in dark power but seems to have been playing some foppish game.
A man who, in his eyes, tried to do the right thing, held humanitarian values, but ultimately was left with no-one. Also, I don’t believe he was as much of a pawn of Sidious’ as people believe. For example, in Episode II, he revealed to Obi-Wan the senate was under the control of ‘a dark lord of the Sith.’ If only Obi-Wan had believed Dooku, perhaps Palpatine would have been exposed. Plus, Dooku trained his apprentices to a much higher standard than Sidious permitted him to, suggesting to me that Dooku had plans of his own. Either way, he is certainly an interesting character; the films of which do not do him justice.
He definitely deserves a series of his own since that is what they are doing now with certain characters. I believe him and Maul deserve series'! I hope to see the complicated lives of each.
Dooku and Tarkin together that’s strange, since originally the role of Wilhuff Tarkin was turned down by Christopher Lee. Little did Christopher know he would play Tyranus aka Count Dooku.
I think him killing his friend and sister is very out-of-character. He had always been a very collected and pragmatic person, there was absolutely no need for him to do that.
According to Wookieepedia, Jenza planned to reveal Dooku's secrets to the Republic and that sort of backed him into corner. As for Sifo-Dyas, my guess is Sidious ordered his death to both cover their tracks and also to test Dooku's loyalties. Considering how in deep Dooku was with the Dark Side by that point, it's not really too surprising.
@@ArcRogerr Legends Dooku hadn't even given in besides academic studies and usage. He didn't fall fully until the last half of the Clone Wars. Honestly I prefer this since you get to see him fall slowly over the course of the war, as it wears down his morals and gives Palpatine and the Dark Side the oppurtunity to corrupt him. It's actually pretty tragic since he had designs to betray Sidious and instate the Jedi as the governing body of a new government and bring peace and prosperity to the galaxy. The reason was so that they could be the police and reduce tragedies and calamities in the galaxy, and prevent them when they could. Is it good? No, but it's much more benevolent than what Palpatine had in mind. Though that would mean that it would be harder to rebel since most could see him as a benevolent ruler, whereas people in the Outer and some of the Mid Rim didn't really like Palpatine after he became Emperor. Is it bad that this reminds me of Batman if he became world dictator?
In all honesty I always thought that Dooku was the parallel of Anakin in growing up in a wealthy house where he had a relatively good life, I had no idea how cruel his early life was before. They also where patriots, which was a very interesting trait for both of them.
Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis The Wise? I thought not. It's not a story the Jedi would tell you. It's a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life… He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from death, but not himself. -Sheev "The Senate" Palpatine
@@kevinsmith8076 And Isildur's body and crown. Meaning he was pretty close to the Ring. That is called getting screwed. That said I now require Saruman wielding a lightsaber with his staff and blasting Gandalf with lightning.
It’s really sad..dude had great intentions and wanted to get rid of corruption… though through extreme measures, I mean, you’ve gotta crack a few eggs, right? However, Dooku’s demise was sure that of a tragedy as well as his upbringing. The man’s was misunderstood.
Dooku was born a comic book character, fought in the clone wars as a noncanon 2d cartoon then as a canon cgi cartoon and died as a real human, truly brilliant character development.
I think Dooku is such an interesting character he is not completely a Jedi but not a full sith Lord I might call him a dark Jedi possibly and I like his personality he understood that the order was corrupted
If you really think about it, Dooku’s original motivations are actually quite good. He noticed that the Jedi were reluctant to help others despite that being what their purpose was and that the Republic only cared about money and had no care about people.

There is somewhat of a plothole in my opinion when it comes to Dooku's story. What I'm talking about is the case of Dooku killing one of his good friends, Syfo Dias, out of just pure Darkness, and then later being sad that Qui-gon was dead, another friend. It's debatable, as it's known that the Dark Side is fueled by emotions, and therefore pain and loss is real for Sith Lords, but I don't like the idea that Dooku had it in him to kill Syfo, even if Palpatine ordered it. I feel like Dooku should have been emotional of the thought of it and decide to somehow use Syfo as a secret apprentice or ally. But for Dooku to just kill him is out to character. Plus, he doesn't have sith eyes.
Way back when, I started liking Count Dooku just because he's played by my all-time favorite actor, Sir Christopher Lee, but the more I learned about the character himself, the more I like him. He's a gentleman, just like the actor who played him. He didn't want galactic conquest, he was trying to restructure the galactic government so that it would function more effectively and would actually accomplish what it needed to, rather than the endless squabbling of the Republic's senators. The Sith were a means to an end for him, but he got pulled in a little too far.
You know the actor who played him, Chris Lee, was not a gentleman right?.. he lied about his life. He pretended he was an SAS super soldier in WW2. He was not.
Speaking of sith lords. This guy should do a video on the Sith Triumvirate. Darth Trays, Darth Nihilus, and Darth Sion. They're all so cool and deserve more exposition. I don't care if it's legends every star wars fan must know their names.
Dooku as my main favorite Sith Lord from the Star Wars Saga and mainly from the prequel movies, for some reason I've always sympathize with him more than with other Sith Lords, and sometimes even more than with other Jedis. Although I do also sympathize with Vader as well, but with Dooku its totally different. This is because I always looked at the Count as a more of a respectable Sith Lord than Vader or the Emperor. His siding with the dark side came more from a place of ambition and desire for power than from a place of evil and desire of destruction. And as well Dooku felt much more moderate like a Sith Lord. This we can see it through his lines of dialogue, like when he is speaking directly to Anakin or Yoda, it seemed to me that Dooku was a charismatic leader and mainly he treated his enemies with respect and courtesy, even if they where prisoners. His cultivated presence proves that Sith Lords doesn't necessarily need to be destructive beings of rage.
If you think about it, Dooku trained Qui Gon, who trained Obi Wan, who trained Anakin. So in a way, Dooku is Anakins Jedi equivalent of a great grandfather
14:30 I do actually believe qui-gon jinn might of joined the sepratists if he had survived his duel with maul on the energy sector of naboo due to the fact qui gon jinn frequently became annoyed with the republic and the jedi council
Dooku was like 80 during the clone wars. He matched both Anakin and Obi-Wan. And in the Original trilogy Obi-Wan was 60 and he moved as slow as a burnt robot. The fuck.
Marcus Sutton I think he deeply respected Qui-gon and believed that the emperors plan would bring an end to the corruption in the republic. I think he wanted qui-gon to believe him and understand that dooku was doing what he thought was ultimately best.
@@daniellegibbs7391 i agree. Dooku knew Qui-Gon was just as conflicted as he was. Telling him how clueless they all really were seems like a push to have Obi-Wan give up partisanship in general, so that they could both be Grey Jedi. I don't think Dooku was ever fully on the dark side.
Dooku was never a true sith, rather a Jedi who had accepted the Dark Side part of himself. He never truly shared Palpatine's vision or desire to rule the galaxy, merely wanting to purify the Jedi order and Senate of its corruption, and bring balance to the universe. As a character he was very similar to Mace Windu, in strength, in beliefs, and in their emotions. Both had powerful emotions yet always kept them under control, never giving in. That's why I feel its out of character for him to have been 'consumed by the dark side to the point where he would kill his friends and family'. But why didn't he attempt to convince his friend to join him? He knew they had similar beliefs and goals, but never tried to recruit him? He's smarter than that. He could've invited his friend to meet in secret, and then kill him if he disagreed. It wasn't like he couldn't. And yet he never tried, and instead hired not fully trusted or reliable assassins to kill him. Did he not have access to Boba Fett or hell, Cad Bane and any of the other Bounty Hunters? As for his sister, I feel like he would've killed her regardless as a necessary evil. He loved her as his one surviving family member, but she planned to expose and ruin everything. There was no need for them to say it was the dark side that made him do it. Same with his apprentices
I'm used to seeing the life of past Avatars so it definitely felt strange at first to hear the same music with your voice talking about Star Ears instead but amazing as always my friend
If the Jedi don't believe in saving people from natural disasters or pirates, then they probably aren't evil but aren't completely a force for good either.
The Jedi had different schools of thought as highlighted by the lightsaber colours. Some were more pro intervention and others saw it as their job to follow the will of the force. The philosophy of the Jedi evolved continuously like any institution and was also vulnerable to manipulation. Their intentions weren’t evil but they had strayed from their core mission when they obeyed the Republic rather than their ideals. Doesn’t make them bad, it made them ineffective though.
@@IndianaJoe0321 I assume you mean yoda and yes he was because for all his power he still just sat a watched the clone wars continue while his jedi knights died.
@@dylangraham1503 Yes, but the point is he was not completely weak which your statement decreed as per the condition of being all good. Meaning you're wrong, albeit too prideful to say it.

One of my favourite Star Wars Characters!
Great video MovieFlame
Ultimately he was just another pawn in Palpatines grand plans like so many others.
Count Dooku is one of my favorite characters. Second only to General Grievous.
so you may know about his son too
I love these Star Wars videos so much keep them coming
I personally think that dooku has one of the most interesting background story
I agree
Yes more Star Wars
Bet when Dooku heard The Tragedy of Darth Plaeguis the wise he instantly turned to the dark side
Hi darth maul
I am darth Vader
The dark side of the force is pathway to many abilities, some considered un-natural
If you think about it, Dooku trained Qui Gon, who trained Obi Wan, who trained Anakin. So in a way, Dooku is Anakins Jedi equivalent of a great grandfather
Honestly dooku is one of my favorite characters
Sameeee
Can you make one of anakin Skywalker too and every star wars characters as well
I think he may have done Anakin, and I also think he did Obi-Wan Kenobi
"Every Star Wars character" would be, admittedly, too much.
He did Luke Skywalker but not Anakin Skywalker.

@@OhItsReo oh ok that's what I must've been thinking of
“I’ve become more powerful than any Jedi. Even you.” - Count Dooku
MovieFlame : an ancient Sith beast called-
Me : a black silhouette of the Welsh Dragon, that’s quite nice :)
damn. Dooku is actually interesting in canon. Although its so much different from his old eu backstory. Still good job to whoever wrote these story's
He probably my favourite prequel villain including the clone wars most of the reason is that it was Christopher Lee who acted/voiced him
AMAZiING perfect explanation
14:30 I do actually believe qui-gon jinn might of joined the sepratists if he had survived his duel with maul on the energy sector of naboo due to the fact qui gon jinn frequently became annoyed with the republic and the jedi council
Dooku was granted the rank of master but still turned to the dark side, crazy!
Dooku was like 80 during the clone wars. He matched both Anakin and Obi-Wan. And in the Original trilogy Obi-Wan was 60 and he moved as slow as a burnt robot. The fuck.
Where’s my
Dooku: A Star Wars Story
I would most certainly have rather watched that instead of "Solo: a Star Wars Story."
Hey man, solo was pretty good. It just came out at a bad time.
And yet, despite all the hardships and decisions he has made, he is still my favorite character.
Thank you for this informative vid, fantastic work.
He is the best character in the prequels
"Dooku wont be missed by anybody"
Grievous: "BUT THE LOSS OF COUNT DOOKU!!!!"
Dooku should have just spilled the beans about Sidious and Order 66 as soon as Sheev told Anakin to kill him
I believe there was a time when Jedi Master Dooku would have been respected and honored throughout the Galaxy as an even handed fair authority figure
Haha 21:15 "And Voss attacked Ventress" ↗️➡️↘️😂
But this still doesn’t answer the question: Why did Dooku tell Obi-wan about Palpatine?
Marcus Sutton I think he deeply respected Qui-gon and believed that the emperors plan would bring an end to the corruption in the republic. I think he wanted qui-gon to believe him and understand that dooku was doing what he thought was ultimately best.
@@daniellegibbs7391 i agree. Dooku knew Qui-Gon was just as conflicted as he was. Telling him how clueless they all really were seems like a push to have Obi-Wan give up partisanship in general, so that they could both be Grey Jedi. I don't think Dooku was ever fully on the dark side.
Dooku was never a true sith, rather a Jedi who had accepted the Dark Side part of himself. He never truly shared Palpatine's vision or desire to rule the galaxy, merely wanting to purify the Jedi order and Senate of its corruption, and bring balance to the universe.
As a character he was very similar to Mace Windu, in strength, in beliefs, and in their emotions. Both had powerful emotions yet always kept them under control, never giving in.
That's why I feel its out of character for him to have been 'consumed by the dark side to the point where he would kill his friends and family'. But why didn't he attempt to convince his friend to join him? He knew they had similar beliefs and goals, but never tried to recruit him? He's smarter than that. He could've invited his friend to meet in secret, and then kill him if he disagreed. It wasn't like he couldn't. And yet he never tried, and instead hired not fully trusted or reliable assassins to kill him. Did he not have access to Boba Fett or hell, Cad Bane and any of the other Bounty Hunters?
As for his sister, I feel like he would've killed her regardless as a necessary evil. He loved her as his one surviving family member, but she planned to expose and ruin everything. There was no need for them to say it was the dark side that made him do it. Same with his apprentices
I'm used to seeing the life of past Avatars so it definitely felt strange at first to hear the same music with your voice talking about Star Ears instead but amazing as always my friend
If the Jedi don't believe in saving people from natural disasters or pirates, then they probably aren't evil but aren't completely a force for good either.
The Jedi had different schools of thought as highlighted by the lightsaber colours. Some were more pro intervention and others saw it as their job to follow the will of the force. The philosophy of the Jedi evolved continuously like any institution and was also vulnerable to manipulation. Their intentions weren’t evil but they had strayed from their core mission when they obeyed the Republic rather than their ideals. Doesn’t make them bad, it made them ineffective though.
one cannot be all good without being completely weak.
Was Yoda completely weak,@@dylangraham1503?
@@IndianaJoe0321 I assume you mean yoda and yes he was because for all his power he still just sat a watched the clone wars continue while his jedi knights died.
@@dylangraham1503 Yes, but the point is he was not completely weak which your statement decreed as per the condition of being all good. Meaning you're wrong, albeit too prideful to say it.
Dooku deserves his own movie, but Disney dos not deserve that priviledge.
Agreed
One problem, Yoda wasn’t Dooku’s permanent master, he had someone else, I can’t remember his name though.
I the new canon it was only Yoda
Impressive recap of Count Dooku life story, which - in my opinion - is scattered among too many sources.
Thank you, and
Regards,
I’ve wanted to see this, this is good, keep it up with the good work, and may the force be with you :)
9:25, aaaaa yes the beast.....the welsh dragon 😂
The life of Darth Sidious would be great to see
"ancient Beast"
*Welsh Dragon appears*
*Old land of my fathers intensifies*
Strong even in another universe.
The life of Bossk would be very interesting
So close to 1 mil subs! Keep doing ur awesome vids!
Can you do the life of Taron Mallicos (Star wars Jedi Fallen Order)
It’s not cannon though
@@yeetusfeetus6890 yes it is
I think all we know about him is in that game
He used the welsh flag 🏴 dragon at 9:51 (my nationality)
Holy shit Dooku has some amazing stories and literally has met every character and trained so many important characters would love a story around him in live action
I doubt you'll read this, but if you have the time, I think it'd be cool if you made a video on The Life Of Stan Lee. After seeing your Life Of JK Rowling video recently.
Great vid, now I like Count Dooku even more. Tremendous arc he had.
When you’re a character created to fill the hole left by Darth Jar Jar...
