>Wait, Anakin! Before you kill me, there's something you need to know about "Chancellor Palpatine."
what would sheev even do in this situation? hope that the jedi assume dooku is lying?

Count Poopoo
>hmm
>my senator friend or sith lord
>whom should i trust?
He would start sperging out, screaming at Anakin to kill Dooku right now, stomping his little Sheev feet.
His Senator friend who just ordered him to execute a prisoner of war who would likely have a ton of information to give up if captured... even in LucasWorld Anakin calls him out on that being wrong.
"But Master Sidious, is that legal?"
Count dooku should not have been a sith. Making him a sith was a terrible mistake.
he should have been a rogue jedi, no red light saber, no lightning.
>"the leader of the separatist claims that the leader of the republic is evil, yes I'm sure that is true. Anikan, deal with him."
Did he actually know palpatine was sidious?
Isn't there some EU bullshit that prevents him from saying anything?
he was to dangerous to be left alive
Well he knew Sheev was insidious, it wasn't too hard to make the connection.
He had no hands, bruh.
He knew Sheev would just cough loudly every time he tried to say something, it was pointless
Dooku is the same situation as Anikan but in reverse. While Anikan being a slave made listening to the Jedi hard, Dooku being a former royal made it hard listening to the Jedi as well. Dooku saught more and more power and was always going to be lead to the dark side because of it.
The EU is wholesale noncanon according to Disney.
This but they wanted palpatine to be at the centre of it all. Would have made more sense if he was a rogue though.
>anikan
...and that's a good thing
In the EU he thought that Sidious's plan was for Dooku to be taken to the Jedi to which he would be pardoned and the Jedi be framed for the war.
Disney can go suck a fat dick according to me
You're a faggot he saw that the jedi were blind to the dark side and tried to take sheev on himself by forming the separatists.
The main problem is that the prequels have the dark side give you contrived retardation and also makes you evil. As it's framed in the prequels there doesn't seem to be a lot of allowance for "rogue Jedi" or otherwise force users who are just neutral. Since Dooku is apparently possessed by the evil dark side demon spirits, there isn't any compelling reason to treat him as a person outside of the fact you might be able to torture knowledge out of him (which the Jedi are unlikely to do).
I liked Episode 3 overall but the entire prequel trilogies are a complete mess.
you mean according to Kathleen Kennedy's "storygroup" lol.
>and tried to take sheev on himself by forming the separatists.
What? Did Dooku know about the secret Sith Lord controlling the Republic and that is why tried to secede from it? I thought it was just because he saw the normal corruption in the Republic and also because he wanted to get more power being the leader of the Separatists.
he straight up tells Obi Wan about the Republic being string pulled by a sith lord. he completely spills the beans. I'm not trying to make sense of it, though. since as says, it's a complete mess.
>sheev:"anakin, my head... he is using he sith powers to melt my brain, you have to kill him now, he won't stop
There isnt any place for ambiguity in any Star Wars content created by Lucas himself, he straight up said that he dislikes concepts like Grey Jedi because Jedi and Sith are supposed to be the opposing forces of Good and Evil with nothing in between. Luke - Good, Emperor - Evil, Vader - Evil and later becomes Good. Even Han had to be redconned into shooting second because George didnt want a Good guy to seem too morally ambiguous. By reading too much into scenes like Dooku telling Obi-Wan about the hidden enemy you are basically going against the intention of the creator which really was just showing that Dooku wants to tempt Obi-Wan into betraying the Jedi. If you dislike the infantile themes of Georges stories than you have to hate the OT as much as the prequels.
^upvote
I like the OT (episodes 4 and 5 anyway) because they were coherent, well written stories with believable characters. You seem to be misunderstanding my problems with the prequels, which is not good vs. evil characters or storytelling (LoTR does the same thing), but the fact that it's portrayed as an incoherent mess where "evil" is treated as a possessing force and makes you selectively retarded to push along the plot. The entire prequel trilogy is like a textbook case of how not to do good vs. evil storytelling.
