- Thank you so much for watching my #StarWars #TalesoftheJedi reaction to episode 3 "Choices" and episode 4 "The Sith Lord!" Again, I love this miniseries. Who I used to feel no empathy for (Dooku) is now having the light shed on their backstory and wow, it has definitely changed my perspective on him!

Yaddle was in the Council Chamber scene where young Anakin was being evaluated. She was not, however, at Qui-Gon’s funeral. Now we know why.
When Disney finally puts someone capable in charge of writing the script.
I don't think I ever really noticed that she wasn't at the funeral, as she wasn't really important to the over all story at the time.
@@matthewkalasky2891 I didn’t notice either. It wasn’t until after this episode I did.
@@Exius-ZeroEverything aside from Episode 9 has been on point from Disney. I don't know what you're smoking.
@@nathandts3401 And episode 8 and most of the plot for episode 7. Not to mention battle front 1 and most of 2 faults for Disney for continuing to contract EA.
I can't say much about Mandalorian as I wasn't able to finish the first season yet. Tales of the Jedi was good, Kenobi was mostly good, what I've played of jedi fallen order has been pretty good and Visions was mostly good. The only things I thought were great were Rogue One and to a large extent Solo.
So, while a lot of things have been good or mostly good from an enjoyment perspective, I still fully believe that what separates these good things from the sequel trilogy is that the things outside of the sequel trilogy didn't already stem from what George had directly initiated which is their only advantage.
See now, if George had done S1 of Mandalorian or Kenobi and then Disney came around with S2 for each of them. Everyone would hate season 2 just as much as the sequel trilogy. So, the only reason they have done well, is that we will never know about the alternate reality where George did it better.
Georges original conception for episode 7 (which you can find online) was going to be far better than what Disney did, which leaves little room for doubt about my previous example.
It's just a good thing that they have had good directors come on board recently for a lot of their different projects and that Dave is finally on board with this.
The imagery of Yaddle making a last attempt to litteraly bring Dooku into the light, with Palpatine taking cover in the dark, is amazing!
Yellow eyes are sith eyes; It is when they utilize their hatred to use its strength. In episode three, you can see anakin’s eyes go yellow when he is murdering the separatists on mustafar.
I'm guessing people already told you this a mounth ago, but episode 4 of Tales happens during The Phantom Menance. The Sith Lord Qui-Gon encounter was Darth Maul. Yaddle was part of the Jedi Council during the movie, but she disappear in Attack of the Clones for no reason, but now we know why.
Love your reactions, Emme! You're brilliant!
The whole episode is during ep 1. Remember Palpatine was also present at Qui-Gons funeral at Naboo. So the end of the episode is before Palpatine leaves for Naboo.
@@oleandreasrye4504 Oh, true... My bad. Thank you for correcting me.
In attack of the clones Obi Wan can't find Kamino in the jedi Archives because, as we saw in this episode, Dooku deleted it. This is why they showed this scene
Dooku had Master Sifo Dyas’s security codes, and Sifo was a council member, which was how Dooku was able to delete Kamino’s location from the archives.
8:36 It is extremely hard for him to bear. "No parent should have to bury their child." King Theodon
If you want to know what Obi Wan looks like at the time of this episode, then re-watch The Phantom Menace.
You may want to give the Prequel movies another viewing just to refresh your memory on what George Lucas gave us with Eps I - III. You'll see Yaddle again in Ep I, you'll get a refresher on Dooku in Ep II and Ep III wraps up everything through the end of the Clone Wars.
Some Interesting Information Dooku in episode 4 is no longer a member of the order. Yoda told him he would always be welcome. He still had friends there so he was strongly attached to the order even though he wasn't a member of it.
The conversation about Maul intrigued me the most. Dooku literally looks disappointed that the council don't believe in the existence of the Sith. Dooku does not try to "confuse" them and agrees with his apprentice. Count at this moment is still strongly conflicted. It is possible that if the Jedi believed Qui-Gon (showed that they had changed) Dooku would have betrayed Palpatine.
The scene by the tree emotionally destroyed me. This place is especially important to Dooku. It was there that Dooku began his training with Yoda. Dooku spent a lot of time there meditating, training, thinking.
After Qui-Gon's death, he knew that the Jedi could not be saved and they will never change.
Palpatine knew Yadle had followed Dooku. He literally ironically says he has been betrayed. Dooku didn't know that this was his final test. Yadle counted on the support of the best swordsman. They wouldn't stand a chance. Now Dooku could beat Sidious in a lightsabers fight but not in force.
When Yadle uses force. Palpatine covers his face. Many fans say that Palpatine is a vampire :) but in my opinion he covers his face because he is afraid that Yadle will run away.
A vampire? Really?
@@ElKamaleon777 I saw it several times in the comments on YT and my friend also joked that Palpatine is a vampire. For me, it's a very cool and funny comparison.
"Then let me give you peace, master yaddle"
It was the coldest line i have ever seen.
LMAOOO Please don't get arrested.
Gets me every time Emme....LOL
Dooku isn't jealous, he's wondering if Windu acted the way he did during the episode because he knew he wouldn't get on the council if he stepped out of line. It would show the hypocrisy of the Jedi, due to the fact that Windu was motivated by being on the council
Episode 4 was my favorite tbh. It was very impactful and the duel was really epic. I personally would fall to the dark side aswell the Jedi really have lost their way in the prequels. As Dooku said that he warned them about the coming darkness - he always believed the Sith have survived and was looking for clues, thats how he found out about Palpatine and joined him because he saw the Jedi were dooming themselves, so he started undermining them as we could see with that cool easter egg when he deleted Kamino from the archives.
Btw in episode 3 the planet they were on was Raxus, which later turned into the Separatist capital planet during the Clone Wars where Dooku also held the Separatist senate meetings
So you would turn evil and kill all of your friends😂 how about trying to make the jedi good again without that
In the Canon books Dooku held a council seat at some point. As such, his frustration with Windu here probably didn't come from jealousy, but a sense of betrayal.
Dooku left the Jedi Order years, probably around ten, prior to Episode I: A Phantom Menace. In the last episode here he should essentially only be on a visit, he left years earlier, but is still respected by most of the Jedi up until Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones. One piece of evidence for his non-membership is his use of Syfo-Dias' identity while in the archives, although that could just be an attempt at anonymity.
7:31 the "Sith Lord" that Qui-gon encountered on tatooine is darth Maul, this takes place during the events of A Phantom Menace, you know exactly how Kenobi looks.
I believe Yaddle is one of only three of their species that we've seen in canon (the other two, of course, being Yoda and Grogu). She was voiced here by Bryce Dallas Howard, who directed a couple of episodes of the Mandalorian.
It's also been established elsewhere that Yoda's way of speaking was not typical of his species but something he picked up from his old master.
Thank you, Emme! 📜 Next time you re-watch THE PHANTOM MENACE you'll notice 'Yaddle' was on the Jedi Council. #Emme #StarWar #TalesOfTheJedi
Episode 4 touches on a lot of things but it really makes dooku a fantastic character. If you actually sit and think about it, the Jedi order is pretty corrupt in many areas. It’s why I think some of the sith and their fall to the dark side are so cool and interesting
After the Jedi nearly eradicated the Sith, they became complacent. There was no more great enemy to fight. Well, the Mandalorians were still around, but never the galaxy-wide threat the Sith posed. The Sith slowly grew stronger as the Jedi Order slowly withered because of the corrupt bureaucracy of the Republic.
@@andrewli6606 And mostly because of Palpatine pulling the strings even before he became Chancellor.
Just a theory but it was probably Yaddle's green lightsaber crystal that Dooku took and "made it bleed" in a Sith ritual that turned it red explaining is now blue turned red saber.
I do not argue or dispute that theory, and I do acknowledge and agree that her crystal will absolutely be corrupted for Sith use, but why would Dooku not use his own kyber crystal that he already has for his own light saber? It is my understanding that Sith collect Kyber crystals anyway, and the best source for them to find them are from dead Jedi, since the Jedi keep location sources of such crystals top secret, making them an incredibly scarce commodity to get hold of.
I am not so sure, however, of just how they keep it so secret with every Jedi needing to secure their own crystals as part of their training. A rite of passage, and not just handed to them. I mean, each Jedi would likely know where they got their own crystals, which is usually shown to be in a Jedi temple... They would surely know which planet they are on at least... and what it looks like. When Jedi such as Dooku and Anakin Skywalker turn to the dark side, I would think those secrets would be turned over to the Sith too...
Sure, dark force wielders may not be able to open Jedi Temples, but they (Certainly the Empire) could use brute force to crack them open to get to the treasures hidden within...
yaddle was in episode 1
Yoda was gonna give dooku his grand master position if he didn’t turn to the dark side. Yoda knew the Jedi counsel was going down the wrong path.
7:01 I distinctly remember you talking about the other Yoda looking character in the council chamber in your Episode one reaction! this is her, Yaddle, the only other known individual from Yodas species.
Dooku was on the Council for a number of years before he left the Order. He resigned though as well in frustration.
6:15 Have you already forgotten about the plot of the Prequels? it was always implied if not only suspected that Dooku was the one masquerading as Jedi Council member Master Syfo-Dias to order the clone army on Kamino, this confirms it, and to realize that he deleted the data on the planet that Kenobi was searching for ten years later at the same time as the events of Episode 1 was amazing!
Dooku says "what choice do I have"
As the jedi say to let go of ALL attachment including qui gon.
12:17 We always did wonder what happened to that other Yoda looking person on the council at episode 1, this was the answer...
They did really good with the mini series! Can't wait for your reaction to the new bad batch season!
Dooku is such an interesting character, the older I get the more I find myself agreeing with him. Looking back when he talks to obi wan Kenobi in ep 2 he’s 100% honest with him about everything but since he’s Sith the Jedi dismiss his words as lies, he understands the republic is corrupt from top to bottom but his methods of fixing it are why he’s perceived as evil! Top 3 characters for me!
Just took until 2019 for Disney to fix all the nonsense politics from Attack of the Clones and do a deep dive into Dooku. There's an audiobook and a regular book you should go through if you want more Dooku.
Man never had Sith eyes.
Been watching emme for months now and never noticed her tatt lol
Anakin “from my P.O.V the Jedi are evil”
To clear up any confusion, The Sith Lord takes place throughout the duration of The Phantom Menace. The Sith Lord Qui Gon encountered being Maul.
I am quickly getting addicted to this channel. Thanks E!
These points about what the Jedi are and represent at this time are slightly touched on in the prequels and a lot more in the Clone Wars, but having the Dooku perspective really hammers it home.
In this episode, Palpatine was voiced by the great Ian Mcdermaid himself, the man who played Palpatine in the movies
Any idea why they didn't have him in The Clone Wars?
@@matthewkalasky2891 Probably the sheer number of episodes. Samuel L Jackson and Christopher Lee came back to voice their characters in TCW movie, but none of them returned for the show. Ahmed Best sometimes voiced Jar Jar, sometimes not. But Tales allowed for more OG actors because it wasn't a long show
love ur reactions so much 😭💕
Anakin and Dooku both wanted to bring order and peace
Noticing Emme's dark eyes..definitely leaning toward the dark side...
The beginning of episode 4 takes place concurrently with The Phantom Menace. The encounter referenced was Qui-Gon's brief duel with Darth Maul on Tattooine, just as they were leaving with young Anakin.
"Who the frick is that!?" 7:00 made me lol. Such a genuine reaction. :D These couple of Dooku back story episodes really rounded out his character.
What a great day. I get to watch emme react to more Star Wars and I didn't get arrested.
Such great episodes!
The 4th episode is during The Phantom Menace.
Dooku did not leave the Jedi because of the Dark Side, he left because he lost faith in the Jedi. He created/led the Seperatists without Palpatines instruction. However he fell to the Dark after this.
As you can see in these two (as well as the one from last time) Dooku is right, the Jedi has lost its way, the Jedi are corrupt, had Palpatine not been able to manipulate Dooku then the Seperatists could have been see as a force of good for the galaxy just as Dooku envisioned.
This series adds so much more weight to Dooku's comment in Attack of the Clones, "I wish (Qui-Gon Jinn) were here. I could really use his help." He is still wavering about his commitment to Palpatine's plans, and only really wishes to hurt the Senate and show the people that they don't have to accept the corruption, joining the Separatists instead. Ki-Adi Mundi's comment that Dooku is a political idealist, not a murderer, and Mace Windu's comment that Dooku was not an assassin, as it was not in his character, show how much respect he still held prior to the events on Geonosis. Qui-Gon was Dooku's conscience when he started going astray, and ended up really lost and under Palpatine's sway after Qui-Gon died.
Windu's "Non-Answer" is also a blatant lie he can't see
by looking how things are going im pretty sure emme will become one of the standard star wars reactors out there!
The yaddle episode felt like watching a movie
Yaddle took all of the hair from their species.
It is interesting that Sidious had Maul and he started to convince Dooku to to join him. I wonder if Maul killed Obi-Wan too, what would happen between him and Dooku.
darth sidious / palpatine is a sith of course he had his sith yellow eyes
The last episode happens parallel to the movie Episode I: The Phantom Menace, the Librarian tells Dooku that Qui-Gon has had a encountered with a Sith Lord in Tatooine, the first appearance of Darth Maul, and then, when we see Dooku in front of the tree, Qui-Gon has already been killed by Maul, and this by Obi-Wan.
Heey, I've got a question, are you planning on watching Star Wars: Rebels? The animated series?
If yes, then when? (Just like +-, in matter of weeks/months or like that :D)
Bad batch starting next week and rebels starts the week after! (I think. More or less. My calendar is not on me ATM)
@@emme Okay, thanks for the answer :) Looking forward to it! :D
lol the "please dont get arrested" makes me think shes telling me to run from the law
Yoda probably did not give the Eulogy because they would have to recast Tom Kane. Tom Kane did the narrations for Clone Wars, Yoda, and Admiral Yularen. He had a stroke last year and is in very poor condition. I don't know all the details, but it isn't good.
7:33 - Umm... exactly like he does in The Phantom Menace? 😂 (this episode takes place around the same time-frame that movie takes place in).
Also, the Sith Lord that Qui-Gon encountered in Tattooine was Darth Maul, as we saw in Phantom Menace.
Yellow eyes mean Sith.,.you can see it in Anakin when he turned and in many others....it's common amongst the dark side users ..also look up on TH-cam about the theory of Jar Jar Binks being a Sith Lord controlling EVERYTHING from behind the scenes pretending to be a fool...it's very interesting and holds alot of weight when you put things together on your own
Great Dooku arc
Windu singlehandedly created two of the most dangerous Sith in modern history. And caused three of the best Jedi in history to leave the order.
Yaddle was in the phantom menace
Getting Ian McDermid to voice Sidious was just perfect for this episode! A Few different people voiced Palpatine in TCW and did a good job, but no one does it better than Ian. He just is The Emperor.
He really is.
"Why are his eyes yellow"?
Uhh, because he's evil. That seems self-explanatory. You're going to love the last two episodes!!
Remember, if you Hate palpatine, you are already on your way to joining im in the dark side 😅
Gooooood.
Everyone is capable of being tempted and falling to the Dark Side. Even a Jedi Master like Dooku saw the need for change, as more and more Senators were becoming corrupt. And with that, Palpatine could manipulate him. The road to Hell is paved with good intentions.
of u didnt know qgj death was the main turning point of duke turning to the dark side
Can't wait of ep 5 & 6
Great reaction!
Mace Windu just follows the Jedi Code strictly plus he's got a lot on his plate orchestrating a galactic civil war, trying to find a hidden Sith Lord, plus dealing with if Anakin is the chosen one. 👍🏾
12:25 Sidous’ eyes are yellow because the dark side corrupts the body! THOSE ARE SITH EYES!
The darkside is in you young emme ( in Palpatine voice)
Don't feel bad. Literally everyone is supposed to be susceptible to the Dark Side. No one's incorruptible. Even Yoda had to face it as part of his training for immortality.
Dooku is 70 and has minimal grey in his hairs
One of the things we often don't consider is how Windu was so devout to his protocol, and yet when he faced off against Palpatine, he decided then to break the protocol right in front of Anakin, whom he was also hard on. Then we see how he criticized Dooku in this episode for not "following protocol." Windu looked really hypocritical to Anakin in EP3 in that moment. What I love about this story arc is we see the same corruption and inconsistency in the Jedi Order that led to both Dooku's and Anakin's fall to the dark side, because the Jedi were no different than the SIth in practice, even though they claimed to have different principles.
« Why are his eyes yellow? » seriously ?
12:26 every siths eyes are yellow
12:24 cause of darkside.
You skipped a good part of episode 3. Dooku was talking to the person in the prison and he said darkside words to him. Mace wind heard it. That was a really good part
I know the game is considered old now, but I think you would enjoy playing the pc game Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. It has a good story line. It and the second installment are both pretty fun too.
Palpatine's eyes always were yellow....
In the past few years these animated shows have completely recontextualised Mace Windu as an absolute dick. He was obstinate, orthodox, and a bit full of himself in the prequels but the seventh season of TCW and this short have pretty much turned him into the absolute worst. With him in the upper echelons of the Council it's no wonder the Jedi were wiped out.
Episode IV of Tales of the Jedi is one of the saddest and darkest of any Star Wars. It is also painful to see that Yaddle is dead.
Remember how Obi Wan felt Alderan's destruction, in Episode IV? Do you think Yoda felt the death of Yaddle in the same way?
Maybe one day we shall find out.
notice how in both epsiodes dooku went against the senate and normal jedi procedure and he was right to do so.
dooku realized the curroption of the republic because he cared about the people, but the jedi are brainwashed since they are 4 that emotions are bad and that careing can lead to emotional attachment which leads to the darkside. when it their inability to handle sudden powerful emotions which is the real reason for the fall.
that's also why the jedi don't really like dookus entire line, with the exception of obiwon, they are powerful, emotional, and they care.
the jedi councle (after 8000 years of peace) saw themselves above politics so stayed out of the senates way which allowed corruption to speard like crazy. dooku and so started to exploring the dark side cause if the jedi are wrong about emotions were that also wrong about the darkside? sideous was able to use the corrupting effect of darkside power to twist dooku's wish to help the people into a tool to achieve his desire for war which would weaken the jedi further.
just like how he twisted anikins wish to protect his wife after the jedi failed him (not freeing his mom{they took him cause he was powerfu}, not allowing him to save his mom, him breaking the code by being happily married, visions of his wife dying and the jedi saying just get over it, and the jedi not knowing the palps {the man anikin saw as an incurroptable grandfather figure} was THE sith lord
In my opinion dooku was never a bad guy just on the wrong side of things
Great video
Episode 4 is my favorite
It’s always a pleasure to see Palpatine in Star Wars. Say what you want about him, but he really is the best Star Wars villain, in my opinion.
Dooku actually considered Qui-Jon as a son figure and by extension Obi-Wan as a grandson
He had never even met obi wan until episode 2. Doubt he felt any familial feelings towards kenobi.
@@jonathanscott3914 He definitely felt a semblance of familial feeling as he did tell Obi-Wan about Darth Sidious and Count Dooku always seems to respect Obi-Wan in their encounters. It doesn't appear to have extended to Anakin though. Probably as he's been groomed to be Count Dooku's replacement as Sidious' apprentice, and Dooku never meets Ahsoka, who would be his great great granddaughter in this analogy. Although, Obi-Wan is written to be like the older brother of Anakin who was forced to take on the fatherly role and Anakin can also be viewed this way with Ahsoka.
@@jonathanscott3914 I never said that he said how he felt to Obi-Wan. I’m just saying something I’ve heard in the past.
Qui gon passed away, because Darth Maul kills him and listen Dooku the wrong path leader darth sidious
💫
Maul isn't like Palpatine maul was forced to be sith taken as a child and tortured brutally and trained into becoming a sith assassin maul never had a choice in the matter and any compassion he had was beaten out of him. Maul, dooku and anakin are all victims of Palpatine
How are you emme
Heterochromia was in reference to your eyes which I have to say are stunning. One brown, one blue. It's a mutation. It's a very groovy mutation. I've got news for you, Semage. You are a mutant.
Are you gonna react to Rebels
Your classmate friends, boys hey Siri, I love the dark side it’s beautiful no it’s bad you say battle with it because you said you wanna come from me on Jedi training and jedi said so be it
When you’re going to react to Episode VI
Your high school boys they say palpatine thing is their favorite and it’s so stupid great lady palpatine is not allowed
“The Jedi Order’s problem is Yoda. No being can wield that kind of power for centuries without becoming complacent at best or corrupt at worst. He has no idea that it’s overtaken him; he no longer sees all the little cumulative evils that the Republic tolerates and fosters, from slavery to endless wars, and he never asks, “Why are we not acting to stop this?” Live alongside corruption for too long, and you no longer notice the stench. The Jedi cannot help the slaves of Tatooine, but they can help the slavemasters.” Count Dooku to Darth Sidious
Cool. Now find the thing that a canon character or George Lucas said and not a fanfic character or Villain of the franchise.
@@Mourtzouphlos240 Count Dooku is not Canon ? Strange..
@@Mourtzouphlos240 for real tho. Dooku jedi lost is a canon book
🇧🇷🇧🇷👏👏
Please put ESB reactions on yt
She did on the 19th of November.
I would have followed Dooku and thought I was doing the right thing. The Jedi Council is so apathetic and slow to react how could anyone follow them?
This series is a disgusting portrayal of Mace Windu, Miliarians, and the Jedi as a whole. Standard for Filoni media.
Considering the main characters are people who left the Jedi/became Sith I suppose I shouldn’t have been surprised.
Thank goodness the canon nature of this series is questionable. Everyone involved with the production called it a “parable”.
I think you missed the point of the prequels if you thought the Jedi were supposed to perfect. The Sith beat them so easily because they had already fallen, no longer following the will of the Force but the corrupt Republic.
