| Dooku - Too Dangerous to keep alive ? | |
|
Ian Jandos - Student  |
With both his hands missing, would it have really been too dangerous to keep him alive? It brings up a question though. Although, I suppose you have to have a human hand to shoot lightning...the choke or other force movements don't require human limbs (i.e. Vader from original trilogy). Maybe with his being betrayed by the Emperor...he may have defected back to the light side. Thoughts? -Ian _______________ Member #7625 | Since 7.6.04 The Archives |

Was Count Dooku too dangerous to keep alive?

Quote: I think what Anikin did was right that weak fool desirved to die. Sith are ment to be a elite core of powerful masters of the darkside. They devote their lives to traning and power. If you cant beat a simpile Jedi Knight then your not much of a Sith. Weak fool?! Wanna bet that Dooku pwns you son? Just look at him in Episode 2  |

Yea I thought about that and at the time Anikin doesnt know hes the chosen-one And I dont think Dooku knew it either because then he wouldnt have challenged the chosen-one and a Jedi Master and general. So therefore it wouldnt have mattered. _______________ -Phantom Ex-Master to Threat. Proud owner of Sazabi's 1500th comment!

If you cant beat a simpile Jedi Knight then your not much of a Sith. Just noticed this post, Anakin is a simple Jedi Knight? Nah!!! He is the Chosen One, the constraints of the Jedi Order pushed him toward the Darkness. It's like this, When Palpatine says "He is to dangerous to be kept alive, kill him."

"Only a Sith deals in absolutes." Anakin's actions only prove that his destiny is with the Sith. The only way to become the Sith Apprentice is to destroy the Sith Apprentice. Anakin killed Dooku so he could take his place, right or wrong is merely perception and perspective after all. _______________ “Arguing on the internet is like competing in the Special Olympics.

Quote: If Anakin had let Dooku live, how would he transport him to Coruscant without having to risk his life? I mean, he would have had to carry Obi-Wan on his back while having to keep his eyes open for droids (and General Grievous). Moreover, it's not like Palpatine could've just pulled out his red lightsaber and keep Dooku from running, becaus e in that case, Anakin would find out that he was a sith lord. It's a situation no jedi would like to be in. EDIT: Anakin says that Dooku was "an unarmed prisoner (hehehehe...indeed he was unarmed )". Look at it this way: Dooku was armed with the Force, which is more powerful than any weapon. Therefore, Anakin did the right thing in killing Dooku. right thing moraly, wrong thing jedi way _______________ Quote: I mostly agree oh Lord of the squeezy mop

Dooku never would've gone back. Once you became as bad as him... nothing short of a big knock to the head would redeem you. Personally, I thought the right thing to do was to let him in custody, since it'd be safe to say he couldn't really duel or shoot Force Lightning, or even do the mind trick without his hands _______________ "To become a greater man, you must be a lesser one first." |

Palpatine made him kill him for the sole purpose of turning Anakin to the Dark Side. Palpatine saw that Anakin beat his former apprentice, so he wanted a new, more powerful one. _______________ Top ten reasons to get a better computer...|My fan |

And yet he did not do the right thing, as the Jedi "do not execute their prisoners. No matter what their crimes" -> Bastila He says it himself, that he should have done that. But Obi-Wan doesn't seem to care one bit  But seriously though, Obi-Wan being crushed seemed like ... something a five year old had drawn. I personally think (and I can't draw stick figures) that even I could have made something a bit more realistic. If something of that magnitude would fall on my side, I would: a) be crushed b) at least break something c) at the very least LIMP when I'm being saved. I expect that in 20 years, this shall be fixed, when the Original Trilogy and New Trilogy are made (yet) again and released on Super-D00per-DVD. _______________ Visit the Belouve Family Website!

where he could run? if he runs... anakin could just throw saber thus makin his death even more fancy he could use his force powers? cmon obiwan was pushed like some dummy and count didnt even try that on anakin, so anakin must have been immune to his force powers  anyway... palpatine could just help anakin to finish him off... i bet he even had his saber _______________ playing jk3 since 30th of january (2005), member since 1st of february.

Quote: he was too dangorous to be kept alive, he could still use force abilities. and still get some robotic hands put back on. Yup if they would keep him alive he would get those robotic hands, and would hide and train a little while, then come back and pwn Anakin. But I liked Count Dooku, he should live to be correct about force abilities, all force abilites can be used without using the hands, using the hand is just a focus point, perhaps to concentrate better. for examples on Episode 6 luke just closed his eyes and lifted 3po into the sky,another perfect example is in episode 5, vader didnt use his hands to choke an admiral through th e ship.
