Dooku was actually the best part about the prequels, I found myself wanting to know more about him.

I felt that way when I first saw maul.

I think Dooku is nearly as tragic a character as Anakin Skywalker. And I respect Yoda for taking him as his apprentice when he did.

I very much have always like Dooku’s character even before The Clone Wars 2008 or the lack of content surrounding him. The way he fights, how he carries himself, what his own philosophies entailed, etc. Now that there’s been more content surrounding Dooku from his own upbringing to his eventual fall and later death you can’t deny that he was special. He, along with Anakin, were dealt a bad hand especially with how the Clone Era Jedi were handling their operations. Tails of the Jedi is a great mini-series with different points in time for Dooku and Ahsoka, but Dooku in particular with the events of removing Kamino, assassination of Syfo Dias, and his last tether to the Light in his own apprentice Qui-Gon. The lineage of Jedi from Dooku to Qui-Gon to ObiWan and finally to Anakin is something special with how each individual conducted themselves or followed the force in some cases.

As similar as they are, I can't help but wonder, what if Dooku had stuck around long enough for HIM to be Anakin's Master? Would that have stopped either of them from falling to The Dark Side? Or would it have sped both of them down it's path?

Dooku was already corrupted even before the events of TPM, so him being Anakin's master wouldn't have changed his trajectory. By the time the opening scene started, Dooku was already acting as Palpatine's agent.

Dooku is really interesting character. Great story,origins. Shame he was betrayed by him family,and most importantly Jedi. They didn't listen to him. They ignored. He saw the corruption of the Republic,Senate and the Jedi. He saw their flaws,dogmas and they ignored him even further. He felt the Sith return and they did nothing. They didn't help him liberate his world,he had to do it. Dookcu was a victim,mostlry of the Jedi. He had really bad circumstances. And that's when Palpatine approached him. I didn't know about this. May the Force be with you too

Dooku was a refined person. The way he carried himself was so different from all of the other Jedi.

Dooku and his apprentice were actually quite similar. Yet so different in many ways

Imagine a What If Dooku and Anakin were born around the same time and grew up together at the temple. Or Imagine a what if Anakins mother after having Anakin was bought by Dookus father and Anakin and Dooku Met that way?

Dooku came to the Jedi Order with baggage 🧳 from being abandoned by his father. During his training the only friend he had was Syfo-Dyas (who he later set up to be killed on a mission from the Supreme Chancellor Valorum). Then later being tricked by Master Costana believing she was really a Sith. Being ignored by the other masters after passing his schooling because of the rumors he attacked and nearly killed a master. Later the death of Qui-Gon Jinn who he admired very much and blamed the council for his death, which could have been prevented. Too many times, Dooku had his a back pressed up against a wall by the council and made to feel as if he didn’t belong. Especially since he openly spoke against the council for being more obedient to the Senate than to The Force. It was inevitable that he would fall when presented with an offer to gain more power and become something else that the Jedi Order kept hampering for him.

Count Dooku was bad, but what can I say I love this character did anyone else love his character

Yes. I did love his character. It pissed me off when Annie chopped his head off. I freaking hated Annie after that. I saw Dooku more of a Grey Jedi, unlike a Grey Sith. Similar to each other except for which training came first. I believe Dooku purposely didn't kill either Kenobe and Skywalker when he jumped into his ride and took off.

Absolutely, Dooku is a very interesting character and his fighting style is nice to see.

Honestly I felt much empathy and understanding for count dooku.. he didn’t get a good chance from the start thanks to dad being a prick..he wasn’t misunderstood by his fellow Jedi and really fed bs from the council

Bro, I did not know that I am so glad you told us that

I love this. And i have a new found respect for Dooku.

At that time Yoda was not a #TDBank💳 card holder...

I really don’t think that it’s strange that Jenna grandmaster Yoda had an apprentice in count Dooku, since Yoda trained the son of Darth Vader, one of the most powerful dark Lord of the Sith during the imperial era

Considering how old Yoda is, how many other padawans did he take on?

He would have never became so evil if it weren't for that 10 minute ban.

Learning about Lene Kostana reminds of the Dark Woman An’ya Kuro. Both were controversial Jedi Masters who beliefs put them at odds with the High Council. Kostana studied Sith artifacts because she believed that the Sith would inevitably return, which was in fact true. As Maul and Ahsoka pointed out, to defeat one’s enemy, one must know and understand them. As for the Dark Woman, she believed that every living being had darkness within them, and the path to being a true Jedi was to learn and control it rather than completely suppress it. To this end, Kuro employed brutal methods when instructing difficult students. She used psychological warfare on her pupils to test their ability to control their aggressive feelings and remain true to the Jedi Code. So despite their unconventional beliefs, I think an argument could be made that these two Jedi would’ve been better prepared for the Sith’s return compared to their contemporaries in an academic, physical and mental sense.

I wonder who yoda’s master was back when he was a youngling like grogu 900 years ago

I'm so glad you are doing these. I dontvread the books or comics, so I've missed so much. I loved this one. It gives a new perspective on him.

Yoda started a long line of great Jedi through Dooku so I’d say he made the right choice. So what if you have a couple of bad eggs. 😂😂😂

Gotta admit that those were some colossally "bad eggs". The kind that really stink up the place.

The yoda, dooku, qua gon, Kenobi, anakin straight line is unbelievable and all some of the strongest Jedi, of all time

Dooku ' story from birth to death is some what tragic , his motivation are really selfless and was one of the few Jedis who saw the flaw in their code and cared for their padawan , definately a top 10 character for me .

One, I like Count Dooku! A LOT! He has a cool about him that is hard to ignore. Two, who would be better to try and channel the frustrations of the young Padawan Dooku that the Jedi Grandmaster? I mean, he's been around for centuries, right? I'm sure that all of that didn't go to waste. He may not have been actively training Padawan learners, but I'm sure that he made notes about what worked and what didn't work long before Dooku was ever discovered. Just my thoughts...

Dooku is one of my favorite characters in Star Wars especially after Listening, to Dooku Jedi lost

Jedi lost is such a great book

Dooku was a sheer bad ass!

I think dooku would have been much more evil if he hadnt been trained by yoda

It's crazy to think if Yoda was actually THE embodiment of the light or THE most deceitful Sith lord other then JarJar lol

He seems very similar to Anakin in a lot aways because the Jedi council didn't really seem to like Anakin much either so it seems like count Dooku was also discriminated againsts

@robertbarrows6687

Honestly its surprising Dooku himself didn't try to turn Anakin to the Dark Side on his own initiative upon learning how the Jedi Council treated him, or that Anakin decided to learn why Dooku fell and tried to turn him back to he light. We could have gotten some awesome interplay of both sides during The Clone Wars until the inevitable conclusion at the beginning of Revenge of the Sith on board the Invisible Hand.

The council didn't play favorites with anybody, and they weren't obligated to do that with Anakin. The idea that the council didn't like Anakin is a false narrative. If that were even remotely true, Anakin would've never got the Knight rank. The council even gave Anakin a solo assignment on AOTC and stood by the decision, even though Obi-Wan disagreed with it.

Day 285 of asking for a part 3 of what if anakin was trained by qui gon

It would be either curious or bothersome for a Grand Master (or anyone on the Jedi council) to have a pupil . I mean what do they do with a pupil ? Bring them to work ? Have them attend countless sessions, discussing topics in front of them that we're not for them to hear ? It's just ... not very believable .

The jedi counsil are largely responsible for why their knights constantly fall to the dark side.

It's not like they could force Yoda not to do it

But didn’t Yoda trained Mace Windu?

Dooku wasnt bad, he was a product of the failure of the Jedi. Their dogmatic approach to the Force and how it was best understood lead many Jedi down a dark path. They failed with both Dooku and Anakin to their own destruction

@@taylorlibby7642 They love rationalizing the actions of Dooku and Anakin! Both had chances to leave the Jedi order. Dooku could have left 10 or more yeas before Phantom Menace. Anakin could have left after marrying Padme! Nope! They wanted power! They deemed the Jedi would be in their way and therefor was their enemies when it was Palpatine who was their true enemy. The Jedi suffered greatly but the people of the galaxy suffered more during the Clone war and the over 20 years of the Empire. The planet of Alderan was blown up. More planets would have been blown up if not for both Death Stars being blown up which would have met more billions killed by the Empire. Dooku and Anakin were a major part of the suffering of the people in the galaxy.

Dooku committed war crimes, and his own student saw the worse version of him on a faraway mission even before he officially became a Sith. Dooku was bad, and ppl's attempts to blame the Jedi for it says a lot about how severe their Jedi Derangement Syndrome is. Dooku was a product of his own terrible choices and his own ego, not the alleged failure of the Jedi.

Honestly its no surpise why the jedi order needed a real wake up call its just to bad some of the good jedi had to die as well in order 66 example being pol koon

I’m honestly am not surprise Yoda has made many mistakes with his biggest mistakes being Dooku honestly the Jedi council was kinda right I mean with how Dooku turn out.

Oh!

I dunno, doesn’t it make sense? If Dooku was powerful and perceived as a problem, then surely having the MOST experienced Jedi master train him is appropriate. 🤷‍♂️

I liked dooku, you want to hate him but you can’t. I kind of side with him a lil to be honest after watching tails of the Jedi

NNNNNNOOOOOOO

So many errors of Yoda...

I feel like mace windu was born to late. Windu would of been a much better master for dooku than yoda
