The Non-Canon Expert explains why the Sith Lord Count Dooku did not have Sith eyes, despite his many years of apprenticeship under the Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Sidious. - Zábava
You know who does have yellow eyes?
Jar Jar, just saying.
Also every dathomirian zabrak
So did General Grievous.
Bob Hoskins It’s actually quite confirmed that he was supposed to be, but they backed out of the Idea and replaced him in Episode 2 with, ironically enough, Dooku.
Game Time Source?
Gregorio Pern there is no source it’s a lie
It shows how selfless Dooku really is. He didn’t care about himself gaining all the power like Vader and Sidious did. He just wanted a less corrupt system in the galaxy since he though, rightly so, that the Jedi Order was corrupt.
Also the most classy Sith of them all. He could always have a proper conversation and he had deep respect for all his opponents.
I mean, he DID want to consolidate all power in the galaxy under a dark space wizard, so we should remember that "selfless" is not synonymous with "good".
The jedi order was not corrupt.
@@ddy7323 They were.
@@ddy7323 yeah they were
ddy 73 They definitely were, you should watch the Clone Wars
Man’s trying his best.
He put one ad
@Yo mom is my mom you have don't last a second
In.....this......video....I'll talk.....about .....🤪
Yo mom is my mom oof
@@s1m4r man what tf did you just say?!?!?
Dooku isn’t really a sith lord. He is just a Jedi with a red lightsaber.
Bruh
I believe Dooku accumulated more overall duel victories than anyone else in SW.
That’s why his name is Darth Tyrannus
He used technique, rather than power
Dooku was a true sith lord but he wanted to control the dark side
Or did Christopher Lee just not want to wear the contacts?
Issa joke
TechnoDelta
I guess he grew tired of wearing coloured contact lenses, after his use of red ones, as Dracula.
TechnoDelta to be honest that might be the truth.
TechnoDelta you might be right
Sir Handel dude there is a video on youtube of a guy that edited all of deanarys scenes from GOT and made her eyes purple... if a random guys 10 minutes of editing can do it its not hard...
maybe he clicked "hide sith corruption" while playing SWTOR???
Kedein nav palpatine technically did the same thing lol
lol
Kedein nav Best comment.
Lmao
Is this technique real?
Because he is too calm.
Classy, even.
I imagine he didnt fall to the dark side emotionally like the rest of the sith.
I feel like he chose his side logically, falling due to having a cold, emotionless, logical heart.
Wrote this before watching, will follow up after
About 2.5 minutes in, i agree that yes being stronger with the force should have made him change.
He was a man of study, practice, training.
He was a fighter, who even based his lightsaber on being prepared for duels.
Becoming more powerful by slow, small increments and focusing on technique, rather than strength.
Yep, I'm right.
Logic.
Technique.
Politics.
yeah sees realistically the universe will fall to big government, and after admitting that he rather fight for a none corrupt government , a idealistic en devour on his part really. but certainly a respectable one.
Well I think that’s the right path because feelings won’t be an obstacle. And yes his class is unparalleled.
Basically dooku was a “good” sith.
I don't think he was ever _actually_ a Sith. Sith is a religion. He just used the Dark Side to further his political goals to achieve something he thought would bring about genuine good change and peace to the galaxy.
Even as a Sith he had the High Ground
I mean he does do pretty bad things in the CW
@BallOnEm PBS Might also be due to his heritage. Dooku was basically royalty on his home planet, and Palpatine was nobility. So in rank and status, Dooku could never be a slave. Anakin was born a slave.
@@acevarios6073 That is what I don't understand. Dooku technically killed more Jedi than Anakin, and probably more people as well in the course of the Clone Wars.
I mean at the battle of Geonosis alone his droids and allies killed like 180 Jedi. If that alone was enough to give you Sith eyes, well why didn't he get them? Or did you have to do the killing directly, rather than through a proxy?
So Dooku til the end was still more a fallen Jedi than a Sith.
Their called dark jedi, something that is explained in star war legicay but it is not cannon but count dokoo story is exactly what dark jedi stand for....

Listen Christian now u took it too far. Picture this, I am Lord Vitiate/valkorion to your maul. "Your perspective was needed, not wanted"
Rest in peace Christopher Lee. You always brought something extra to a film with your acting. As Saruman and Dooku you were an integral part of the films that would define my childhood. If I would make only one complaint it is that George did let you do justice to your character.
+Gowan James Ditchburn - *"If I would make only one complaint it is that George did let you do justice to your character."* - Not trying to start a fight, I'm just making an observation: I don't think I've ever read a kind word online about George Lucas.

That's cool, I've just never understood the universal hate. But I'm happy that people get that no Lucas = no GFFA. Cheers!

Henceforth, it is now understandably concludable without most reasonable doubts that we have found the true reason for this point being true, even if any hypothetical situations were to be thought of during the process which is now understandably correct in all forms, which is now that this is incredibly true.

"Dooku didn't immerse himself fully in the dark side of the Force..."
Also Dooku: *YOU get force lightning, and YOU get force lightning! EVERYBODY GETS FORCE LIGHTNING!*
😆
I like the force choke better - it has more finesse.
@Al Strider I would argue that no force abilities are Light or Dark side, rather it depends on how it is used.
He was a powerful force user regardless
Man, that reference was as sweet as German Engineering
I always felt kinda bad for Dooku. I mean, yeah, Sidious treated all of his apprentices like shit, but at least Maul and Vader were actually intended as apprentices. Sidious only took Dooku so he'd have someone to do his bidding until he managed to turn Vader.
Maul was intended until Palps found more use in Dooku
Feelsbadman
Maul was made an assassin and not a sith apprentice so technically he got it worse than dooku cause he was more of a tool to sidious than dooku. Maul wasn't even thaught dark side force powers.
@@tekkara1548 He didn't actually care about him, just like he cared about no one. His apprentices, including Vader, were to him mere tools to manipulate to his advantage.
I agree with @DeluxeSlayer on the Maul stuff. He was never intended to be a true Sith, simply a Sith Assassin. Also on the Dooku stuff, he was shoehorned into the film due to backlash over Jar Jar. otherwise we would have gotten Darth Binks instead
Dooku could have been one of the most compelling characters of the prequel era. His true motivations for becoming a Sith are so complex, I would have enjoyed him being more fleshed out than even Maul. His story should have replaced a majority of the political intrigue of the prequel era too.
Exactly, and his beliefs and motivitaion would've do much better than all those senate scenes
He is a great character, we just don't get to see it in the movies. And he is a Sith, not a "gray Jedi"
TytheBandit in this video expose
keanu reeves should play young dooku.
Dooku was born as a noble, he's proud of his origins and condescendant towards people. I'm pretty sure he followed Sidious because of political motivations (empire) and to learn more about the dark side to complete the study of the force. For me is a grey jedi absolutely not a black jedi or a sith and this is why he has no red eyes. He didn't, because sith live in passion of path and feelings which consume and enpower them, and Dooku is an harsh and cold noble who can't release and show his emotions.
You can tell he’s running out of things to say when he starts talking like he’s trying to stretch out an essay.

One thing I did like about dooku is how he had respect for his opponents and at least attempted to negotiate before just straight trying to off his enemy. If anything he could’ve just become a gray Jedi. Not good, but not necessarily evil
Great Jedi or not a thing
You cannot use the light and Darkside of the force in tandem
The Darkside of the force corrupt those who use it there are only Sith and Jedi
@@naseemweathers8358 See, this is false and this is why people who don't know what they're talking about should stay out of discussion.
The Force is not black and white. You saying you can't use both sides of the force is incredibly ignorant because Mace Windu and Darth Revan did exactly that.
The Dark Side does not inherently corrupt it's users. It's users fall victim to it because they are weak of will, they are afraid and they are angry.
@@SpaceEmperorGenos i’ve been a Star Wars fan my whole life so I know what I’m talking about I’m not going to get into an argument with a immature person over something so trivial plus George Lucas even said it himself the Darkside of the force corrupt those who use it you cannot use both in tandem end of discussion
@@naseemweathers8358The grey jedi order did exist, it was created in 132 BBY by leor hal and leor danal.
Sith lord darth imperius did use light side and dark side in tandem, and to a lesser extent some jedis delved in the dark side when needed, even if it’s not a tandem like darth occlus. And not every sith is corrupted by the dark side, darth revan was never corrupted and used the dark side only as a tool.
I always admired Dooku, yes he was ultimately a pawn but he was one of the most powerfull force wielders and duelists of his time he could hold his own against any opponent for quite some time and he was even able to use force lightning without even using all that much of the dark side. shows you how powerfull he was, imagine what he could have done if he gave in into his fell anger and other dark emotions.
he was truly had both covered, the force and his saber skill
that's kind of rare for a star wars character to have such a good skill in both
Sergeant Buttfist ಠ ͜ʖಠ *Stopitstravtime* he was like revan
Except Revan was much more powerful than Dooku, had Dark Lord of the Sith and his motivations were much different.
Devin Logan Bricker yeah but Dooku may have seen the greater good. Like qui gon ginn and revan
LJLvids Dooku was good but he was not one the strongest in anyway he was skilled and had a well rounded fencing skill. But before he turned to the dark he held a Green light saber. He was very ambitious and wanted to be a face of a new era and instead like you said he became a pawn. He was never trained to be a sith. Think that's why he had an odd looking saber. His skill in the force however I have to change my opinion on and say you have a point he was good in the force but I think his ambitions kept him from being the best.
He wasn't purely evil. He thought the Sith could help him achieve his goals. He thought their goals were aligned. (He was sorely mistaken)
The way to hell is paved by good intentions. It is not unknown for a good(ish) man to do bad things thinking that it is the only way to achieve good
Lol his reaction to "kill him" xD
The Jedi are evil ... it is Luca's representation that presents them as the bad guys.

Interesting videos but he does the same thing in every single upload - repeating words, repeating points. I can't watch any more of it, padding at its worst.

PyroA I shouldn't have read this during class.
Dylan Higgins but you did so deal with it
"Dooku didn't get immersed in the full power of the Dark Side."
"Anakin was the true sith aspirant all along."
"Thus, Dooku never got sith eyes."
"This is because Dooku never immersed in the full power of the Dark Side."
"Sidious wanted Anakin all along and not Dooku."
"Dooku's immersion in the Dark Side was limited."
"Dooku realized he was a tool so that Anakin could become the true sith."
"It was in this moment that Dooku knew, he wasn't immersed in the Dark Side enough to be able to serve Sidious."
Christ alive man.
I thought I was the only who caught it I was like come on dude move on with this
This channel is generally that autistic lol
That's what I was thinking dude 😂
@M 40 Palpatine actually used the force to hide his evil appearance as Senator
Saul yes but when Sidious Fought Mace Windu his eyes didn’t go yellow until after the lightning deformed his Face...
This tell you that even Though Dooku didn’t have Sith yellow eyes Doesn’t mean He wasn’t in the dark Side.. he got more powerful in the dark side but the power was limited...
because That was his limit in the Force... he was at his max Potential in the Dark side of the Force... so yeah he was still using the Dark Side...
Dooku's other more defining reason for leaving the Jedi Order:
The council dismissed the idea that Quigon was killed by a Sith, and it enraged him given that Quigon was Dooku's Apprentice once.
Not to mention that the Order had grown weak in his eyes. He was a warrior, he prided himself on his combat skills and that the Jedi were doing nothing to stamp out corruption.
And Dooku did crave power, but not to the extent that typical Sith did.
My opinion, he wanted real purpose and real combat challenges.
It was pretty clear he reveled in heat of battle, he was genuinely happy when he fought Anakin the last time, even taunting Anakin to face him one on one.
I'm more thinking that it was his delusions that caused him to not have the eyes. He saw himself as a liberator, a savior.
Plus I think he was more ignorant of what the Sith actually are. Sidious more than likely told him "the sith are the real force of good" which would explain a lot.
Cuz Dooku is too gangsta for them sith eyes.
mugensamurai Lol!
Wooww yea he was to gangster for his eyes to change
mugensamurai I
B
Lol
maybe dooku actually did want to have obiwan help him kill palpatine.....
He revealed A LOT to him on Geonosis and spared his life above Coruscant (only immobilizing him). Dooku clearly had a lot of respect for Obi-Wan (being the padawan of his padawan) so that's actually pretty likely
@@zombieguyproducion in the novelization of ROTS he asked palpatine to spare obi wan because he was like a grandson to him.
@@robloxfanboy86 While that's not canon, it's pretty clear that he cared a lot for Obi-Wan. You could really see the dissapointment in Palpatines eyes when Dooku immobilized Obi-Wan rather than kill him
@@zombieguyproducion That might've been the moment Sidious knew he'd have to kill Dooku. That he would only ever be a disappointment to him as an acolyte. I think Dooku was more Grey than fallen.
What if Dooku was a spy/sleeper agent planted by the Jedi to gather intel/assassinate the current Sith lord..? I've never seen or heard anything to suggest this, but it might explain a few things... 🤔
Have to be honest here, your dialogue structure needs work. It's difficult to listen to you repeat the same words and phrases so many times.
He just wants 10 minutes
I bet you complain when your food is too hot, don’t you?
He used Clear Eyes Eye Drops.
i just see him as a an revolutionary leader who knew the jedi needed to fall and because of that went with the sith.
he was a true politician a true populist.
And a murderer and a crook. I love the character, but he was a bad man. Then again, he tried to warn Obi-Wan. He's a VERY tricky character to read. A great manipulator too.
jan holdijk It's a shame he had to die. Dooku would have been perfect in a governing body as third in command or something. Like a chancellor under the emperor or like a speaker of the house as in Congress.
Elliot Kouame name a politician that did not do a crooked thing or caused one to die wether directly or indirectly by his actions.
And he is a rather strange character as his goal is never fully clear.
However he wanted a type of take over or revolution that is sure.
Dooku was sort of that guy who wanted to change things for the better, but he just didn't go about it in the best way.
I thought it was because the Sith liked to smoke weed and that he just chose not to partake.
Todd Blalock me too. They don't know the power of the darkside lmao
Todd Blalock makes more sense then the prequels.
Makes sense. And yet, he possessed a bongsaber!
You will now witness the Full Powah of the Dank Side!
That would be quite the high . .
He has Sith eyes in Clone Wars, the animated series. The eyes are, like you said, a physical representation of immersion of the dark side. He was only immersed when in battle, since he was such an exceptional duelist and used the dark side to increase his ability to clash.
Outside of battle, he was level headed and didn’t lean on the dark side to influence his decision making skills. He was the padawan of freaking Yoda, the 2nd most chill being in the galaxy.
Also, the channeling of lightning, which Doku is proficient with, confirms he knows how to immerse himself with the dark side, since it’s an ability known to dark side users, presumably because of the way midichlorians have to be altered in order to perform such an ability.
Al that to say, yes, Doku has Sith eyes, and there are some reasons/ explanations above. As Plagues said, lack of an entire physical change shows lack of immersion of the dark side. Doesn’t mean they lack immersion ENTIRELY
I’ve always had a lot of respect for Count Dooku
Was it because he had the high ground?
DAN THE MAN no, you're underestimating his power
No he had the LAVA GROUND
TytheBandit ha ha ha very funny no joke
Don't you mean.. The *"Eye ground"*..? I'll show myself out.
+ConorChaos LOL😄
jar jar also has sith eyes. despite the rest of the gun gans not.
Jar Jar is a Sith GOD
Jar jar is the mighty creator soo...
Go watch a video entitled EVERYTHING WAS JAR JAR'S FAULT...it makes so much sense...it also shows Jar Jar was instrumental in Sidious' rise to power among other things. Jar Jar was quite possibly...a secret sith.
Virgin
@@elevatingvibration1860 George Lucas himself once said in an interview that he planned on having Jar Jar being an actual secret sith lord but dropped the idea after The Phantom Menace and so we never saw the idea flourish in the movies or anywhere else apart from fan fictions/stories
take a sip every time he says immersed in the complete power of the dark side
The real reason is that Lucas just forgot.
Exactly
it just would not look cool on him beside Sith can hide there physical corruptions like palpatine did during almost all the films
So, since Dooku could control his emotions and thus, in a sense, control both sides of the Force, wouldn't that make him one of the most powerful force users?
Edoric85 potentially sure but to fulfill that potential u have to go for it and doofus didn't want to
Not really.
The Dark Side is anathema to the Light Side, focused on embracing your emotions and passions, rage and ambition in particular.
This is why there's not really any room for moderation. It is possible to draw from both the Dark and the Light side, but by doing that, you'll limit your own power.
he is a grey jedi
Its bad writing to me, he clearly is a Sith. Not all Sith run around shouting or are juggernauts like Vader.
Palpatine did the same everyday, so no.
That has been a reason of debate between me and my friends, as i dont consider him a sith but a dark jedi, as comics have told him to be.
I mean philosophy wise he was more of a dark jedi, but he took a darth name, and thought of himself as a sith as well, while I agree his alignment puts him more in line with a dark Jedi we can't deny that he was a literal Sith Lord.
Mael Radec: That's the same argument that Quigon was a grey Jedi. His philosophical views aside, he still served the Sith Orginization. He still had the backing of his title by the head of that orginization and the backing of the resources of that group.
The fact that he adopted the sith title, cuold be just a "spy" move. Make them think you are one of theris. So the emperor woudlnt go after him, and eventually he could try to overthrow him with one of the aprentice he was training during the clone wars. As he dosnt has the sith eyes (aka not corrupted by the dark side). He could just pretend. But dont fully descend into it. As we have seen, theres more than sith who can use the dark side, and still not be sith
Serving under a side dosnt make you one of them. The nazi army (what a topic :v) had people who didnt belive in nacionalsocailst regime, but still fought for them. You know where I go? He was with the CIS to overthrow de corrupt republic ruled by the Sith Lord. As otherwise, he wouldnt stand a chance, he was using them, and they used him for his political influence to call other sistems for the CIS and his combat skills.
He was a Sith
Ben Stein voice: "For Sith eyes, Jed-eyes is awweeesome. Removes evil and even has chemicals to moisturize. Wooow"
Solid.
Bravo, homie. Pure gold. NOT like Sith eyes
We join with Sidious.... it would be wise my friend .....
Tell me friend when did the Jedi trade reason for madness?
Madness....? THIS! IS! The Jedi Order!
Count Dooku is either the weakest Sith, for not being fully immersed in the dark side of the force, or the smartest Sith/Jedi of them all, for manipulating so many political fronts, creating a confederacy, build an army for a war and even willingly working with a full fledged Sith Lord just for the sake of making his point; not even to rule the galaxy, just to proove the reality of political decay (which is wiser than acting like your average, power-hungry fool, sith). Indeed one of the most intriguing characters of them all.
I think he knew he did not want/could be a ruler. At least many of the others who did try to become a ruler. Try to become the most powerfull or whatever. And they would probably all have done rather well at it too.
Why is it wiser is basically something I wonder about. For it is more complex then the strait forward idea of getting to the top? Only I think if you ignore all the blocks to get there. Not to mention a lot of his views probably was not originally his alone.
i think he was the strongest to be honest he was literally holding back from having the full power of the dark side and he was still able to defeat Anakan SkyWalker and Obi-Wan at the same time not to mention give Yoda a run for his money
D: What? He had to pay?
Imagine an alternate universe to where the Jedi order, republic, rebels and all its members were evil and vice versa for the empire, first order ect
I would say the smartest
Dooku did occasionally have sith eyes. Sith eyes become apparent when a force user lets rage and hatred overcome them. That's why many sith lords didn't have sith eyes all the time.
Thats an interesting point, I wonder why Anakins eyes were like that when he killed the younglings? Maybe he hated that he was killing them?
@@lexgalexy8627 I think we should not interpretate every detail so deeply. In that scene the movie makers just wanted to make Anakin look as evil as possible.
Lex Galexy actually, he didn’t have them when he was killing them. He had them when did however have them when he killed the Separatist leaders.
@Lang Hansen I thought anakin had the eyes as he left the jedi temple with the clones
If I got paid for every time he said "dark side", I'd have 20,000 Republic Dataries.
tyrannus became a sith without anger
the anger makes the eyes sith
SuperMaximGlitchy1's Channel well that doesn’t mean much because Kylo and Ventress wee very Angry And never got Sith Eyes... You have to be fully in the Dark Side to get the Eyes... But even though They All wasn’t Doesn’t mean they weren’t deep in the Dark Side...

When you try to hit that 2000 words on your essay
Dooku is my favorite Sith. He's one of the only Sith that goes against the Sith beliefs of living for power and themselves. He wanted to change the galaxy for what he believed was for the better, even if it meant using the dark side.
On top of that, he didn't even need to use the full power of the dark side to be the most talented lightsaber duelist in the galaxy! Unbeatable by anyone except Anakin Skywalker (in a dark side powered fury) or Palpatine.
Neonwarrior same
Neonwarrior yoda could have killed him
In that regard, I'd say he wasn't a sith, but rather a dark jedi. A dark jedi is a dark side user that doesn't endorse themself in the sith religion.
Probably a case of when you have Sir Christopher Lee to play the part, you don't need any red eyes to scream "EVIL VILLAIN".
True
When he played Dracula though he had red eyes.
So this is how teachers feel
Not really but I get your point.
7:58 Blue and red slightly hinting us that Dooku was in between two forces.
Dooku will always be one of my favorite sith. His mastery of the force and expertise in lightsaber combat has always made me a fan of his.
Iprodeltaelite i just thought he looked cool
He is my favorite and i cant see anyone taking his place
Doku was a Dark Jedi. No real Sith. There are Jedi, Grey Jedi, Dark Jedi and Sith
SoulCrusherEx Nice...thank you for reminding us of the varying categories or distinctions.
by Disney ? grey jedi are canon by lucas arts
"Not canon anymore" is a weird sentence XD all of a sudden disney decides to erase something that was already set down? No thanks, i'll stick with the gray jedi terms
but but... is Disney...
That's what I always assumed. For Dooku the dark side was a means to an end. He wasn't really a "bad guy", his intentions were good but it went very wrong.
When he said the same for the 5th time I felt that
"I'm just an innocent pawn!!"

*I N T H I S V I D E O E X P O S E*

I think Dooku is more of a Grey Jedi then a Sith. He turned his back on the Jedi order, embrace aspects of the dark, but didn't seek ultimate power. the rule of two says the master embodies, the apprentice craves it. Dooku didn't grave power, he craved justice. if that meant taking the mantel of a sith lord, so be it. that is almost what a Grey Jedi would do.
He didn't seek ultimate power? Always wanted power and control.
It's stupid to generalize the Sith culture to one alignment of personality. That would be incredibly shallow. The Sith are an entire civilization, created by dissident priests and dark Jedi from the Jedi order, with its homeworld in Korriban and spawning a myriad worlds in its territory.
The rule of two was stablished by Darth bane, but it's not an absolute rule and the Sith may or may not follow it, as they may create new rules and forms to organize themselves...
Being a Sith does NOT mean being evil. The world isn't black and white
Who is the good and the bay side, is a matter or point of view. The Jedi try to kill anyone who uses the dark side, even on their own flanks, thus dark Jedi fleeing into exile and becoming dissidents, or the grey Jedi.
The Jedi are incredibly hypocritical and have commited many atrocities and war crimes in the name of balance and pretending to be good, they let slavery run free in the very republic and many other horrid practices, that's why count Doku left the Jedi and hated them, same with general Grievous who hated the Jedi for their crimes.
The force doesn't have light or dark side, its just the force
In my view the Jedi are the evil ones and the Sith can either be indeed evil or good, each Sith Lord has their own ideas and mentality
He wouldn't be a grey jedi, he'd be a dark jedi.
Dooku had discovered the power of moisturizer and contacts
I love Dooku. He has always been one of my favourite Star Wars characters.
He has a red lightsaber and don’t you need to be fully immersed in the dark side in order to bleed the Kyber Crystal Red
It’s not explained in Disney canon how he got it but in legend I believe it was a synthetic one (like palpatine), because bleeding a crystal would have alerted the Jedi (and we know palpi love secrets)
Dooku was more of a good person than most jedi.
Aces of Athens how so?
He always changed the roll of tp
Aces of Athens RESPOND OR ELSE
Because his motives are decent don't mean his actions are
A person cannot be evil,
Only the actions they take.
Definently
He hadn't red eyes, because Christopher Lee just said: "No. I have spoken!"
The fact that Dooku so easily uses force lightning despite not being fully immersed in the dark side really shows how skilled he was as a force user.
Dooku = using darkside to aid the light side. A typical " Light sith "
Quido Eekels grey jedi
Such DamnSKILLZ Pretty sure Luke is headed toward becoming grey jedi and abolishing the all or none methods of the jedi and sith both in the next two new SW flicks. Imo, true ballance of the force is an order of basically decent(but with shades of gray, lol) Gray Jedi tapping into both the light and the dark to serve the force as a whole, kinda like Roan Fel and the rest of his Imperial Knights in the Legacy comics.
He uses lightning, very much a Sith technique
Unless they changed the lore, using force lightning is a dark side force use. Since when has Luke used it in canon? Along with Plo Koon.
Not sure if KotoR is considered canon or not. But Jedi could use force lightning - it just took a lot more of their force power if they weren't dark aligned.
And yet Palpatine had no physical changes until his battle with Windu. No sith eyes at all
He was able to use a sith ability to hide his true appearance.
Many people theorize that he had looked like that for a while but because he studied Sith Alchemy from Plagueis who was literally the Sith Alchemy that he had the ability to mask it through said Alchemy until Windu started beating him and he lost control of it. And then blamed it on war wounds when he was in public from then on.
Yeah, it's been canonically explained that he was using sith alchemy to hide his appearance. His fight with windu actually messed him up enough that he couldn't do it anymore. Either that or he just chose not to anymore to gain sympathy for his physically deformed look
@@FingerSpazm Yea, he even "bragged" to the Senate about how his fight with Windu left him "deformed" so I think he definitely was playing up the sympathy card.
Ah Sheev Palpatine a true politician villain, and mastermind, maybe that’s why they’re bringing him back again.
I would also say Dooku always stayed in control of his emotions. He seems like that kind of guy.
Maybe it's just kidney failure
Dooku was originally a Jedi, and even though he eventually fell to the dark side, it was not a rapid process; he was lead by his ideals rather than personal ambition and power, and he did not get to fully embrace the Dark Side as Darth Sideous or Plagueis had.
Outwardly signs of physical Sith corruption tends to only manifest within those who have delved truly deeply into the dark side. I.E. you have to be a hardcore user for it to show physically.
That's exactly what he said in the video
SinerAthin so it’s in a way like Drugs
also, couldnt he have just pulled a palpatine, and made him look normal
Joey Price this was my thought also, great video pointed out a few things I didn't realize, but before hitting play, I was thinking "um the same reason palp looked normal"
Cogent Explanation. This is now my headcanon for Dooku. Please keep up with your fantastic character analytics. Good Material.
I rewatched the prequels the other day and once again asked myself this question, so it's weird but nice that this video randomly showed up
Here's a question: Dooku is, in a lot of ways, a Jedi in Sith robes (for reasons explained in the video, of course.) Among the Jedi at any point, was there ever a character who, despite honest allegiance to the Jedi and general goodness, still philosophically operated more as a Sith? Like, an inverted Dooku?
uh Mace Windu?
Adding to your point of Dooku not having evil goals or being angry, he always seemed like a mixture of Sith and Jedi, not really either fully but a bit of two worlds. He used his Jedi learned techniques, he was not rageful, he meditated a lot (Which SIth also do but it's more of a Jedi trait) however he employed Sith powers such as Sith Lightning and so fourth. If you ask me he's a hero in his own right, wanted nothing but a better universe and using unorthodox methods to achieve it after feeling the good methods failed and the loss of his friend and mentor as well as having the right idea but being rejected by his peers. He was also very close to becoming a Grey Jedi due to the balance of both Sith and Jedi and having ultimately noble goals.
Here's my theory: Dooku did have his appearance corrupted by the dark side but he hid his true appearance, including the sith eyes, just like Palpatine did before fighting Windu. Maybe because he thought he could get sympathy from the Jedi by not looking like a lizard-eyed monster, maybe just out of vanity
In the KOTR trailer with the father and two sons remember how the white ones eyes changed so fast and then back after he killed his brother. He had an intense flash of the power of the dark side
He did get sith eyes very briefly after being confronted by Anakin just after killing the (BRUTALLY HOT) zyggerian queen.
Sylvanas Windrunner Where is this?
You can find the video on CZcams. It's called "Dooku Kills The Zygerrian Queen [1080p]"
You can see it at the 1:00 mark.
VERY well spotted. I bloody love learning new things about SW.
Sylvanas Windrunner not to mention when blasting Savage Opress during a training session.
How did you spot that? Damn....
Count Dooku is my favorite Jedi of all time but he was never truly evil he just wanted to fix the Jedi and he wasn't strong in the force being better with a lightsaber and I believe seeing how strong Anakin was gave Sidious the want to switch both out for they both used each other to reach their end goal Dooku didn't just fear Sidious he hated him and wanted to kill him the whole time
Dooku even asked Obi-Wan to help him destroy the Sith so Dooku was only Sith for it's uses and wanted to get rid of them in the future in exchange for a more improved Jedi Order.
"Wasn't strong in the Force" ?? Where you did you get that appraisal, Dooku was a beast with the Force, he bested Yoda, Obi-Won and Anakin all in one fight and would best them again in separate engagements. His Force feats through out the numerous shows and books is well documented. You need to do your research son. Dooku 2020!!!
ParagonRex Yeah he clearly doesn’t understand Dooku there were only 3 force users better than him, 4 if you count Anakin. He’s the only Sith besides Palpatine that knows how to use Force Lightning
@@KingTChalla69 Agreed this is part of the problem of Disney Star Wars it is a disaster for the real Canon or Legends as we know it now. These fair weather fans don't know shit about real Star Wars. No true fan would ever have said that THE Count Dooku was weak in the force. Yoda acknowledged him as the greatest of the Jedi
ParagonRex Facts!!! He’s apart of THE Lost Twenty, even without his time as a Sith he would’ve been a top 5 force user during the Galactic Republic era.
Take a shot every time he says "sith eyes"
He didn't like how they looked, so he toggled "show sith corruption' off.
Plus he is a practitioner of Makashi (form 2). He really he is fine and honorable sith.
skalawitz He isn’t really a sith, just a dark jedi. He was planning to overthrow Palpatine, and even told Obi-Wan about the sith lord, and even went as far as to hunt at who it was.
Very good vid, I always wondered but it makes sense because Douku in prequels did seem more elegant, relaxed and politically motivated to bring change which we also see in the Clone Wars series. Most Sith just go crazy for power and control. And they say the prequels sucked. The story is interesting in prequels just maybe not well executed but I enjoyed them and the politics.
Take a shot every time he says sith eyes
Not even 2 mins in and peeps are drunk
Cause he didn’t wanna be an edge lord just a Sith Lord
There were instances where he did have Yellow eyes like in the Clone Wars movie, during Anakin and Dooku's duel on Tatooine
He had Sith Eyes in the Clone Wars show. And he seemed pretty evil there too.
Despite this he was still extremely powerful, if he had wanted to overthrow his master and had wanted to rule the galaxy for himself he could have been so much more powerful.
Darth Malgus was all about that WII U. He has the symbol in his mask
REPVILE He has poor taste.
I thought he used Sith alchemy to mask his eyes, like Chancellor Palpatine did.
Also, I thought a person using force lightening must have fallen deep into the dark side in order use that ability.
he uses the force more than most jedi. he's the big boy in the star wars universe (aside from palpatine) when it comes to force lightning
Mr. Arnold Nah, you can unlock the perk for that at level 3.
Also obviously Force Lightning can't be a power exclusive to the Sith, because Yoda does it too.
Galadhrim Rewatch RotS.
i really like dooku as a character, but in the clone wars show, they kinda mess up his character imo
Joey Price how?
Kyon he took the more boss figure in the clone wars but in the prequel trilogy not as much
so how does that ruin his character?
Combine115 kinda what i mean
Nah, I like him in the Clone wars. His purpose there was to pose as the leader of the Separatists, so being a boss was kinda a requirement
Gotta hit that 10 minute mark.
Sidious didn't have Sith eyes until after he was scared by Mace, according to the movies.
Force mask
Hi everyone! I can’t believe that Aftermath: Empire’s End is already here. Is anyone else looking forward to it tomorrow? Also, I just wanted to give some sources for the video as well. The primary sources for the video are the novels: (1) Darth Plagueis by James Luceno; (2) Tarkin by James Luceno; (3) Revenge of the Sith novelization by Matthew Stover; and (4) Dark Lord: The Rise of Darth Vader by James Luceno (a lot of Luceno!). I hope that you enjoy the video and thank you as always for your support.
i left a like, not for you but for....... dark side corruption.... lol great video as always. :)
Well, Luceno should be part of LucasFilm Story Group, his books has maybe slow and boring parts sometimes, but his seeing the bigger picture is great so no doubt that this topic was covered almost exclusively from his books
Star Wars Reading Club Luceno is the best Star Wars author in my hoe opinion
yo, I hear all this talk about James Luceno, which he def is a good author. Darth Plagieus is one of my top books, but let's not forget my man Drew Karpasian (if I spelled that right). . That's my man who wrote the Darth Bane trilogy plus many other's in the original E.U. . I def enjoy his work & writing style... . .
Hey, you should check out my comment an hour ago where I reference a situation where he did have sith eyes although briefly. It seems you forgot or didn't know about that one occasion.
Or maybe it's too mousy of the mickey variety for you..
now, outline an alternate history account where Dooku convinces Anikin during their duel to spare him and they together eventually take down Sidious and With Anikins prodding Dooku eventually takes on the mantel of emperor and the galaxy does achieve peace under the guidance of a wise leader and his loyal knight under the ideals of a new grey order...
DrewLSsix ...wow! how perplexing THAT would be...but an awesome alternate universe scenario for star wars, to be sure!! never considered a gray Jedi order of the galaxy.
Wher can i sign for this?
Sounds like a plan, petition to make this a thing?
*valkorion light version in nutshell*
Sidious didn’t have sith eyes either. Not until he blew his cover.
Harrison Baylor that’s because he was using a technique named « force mask » you can look it up in a video
Sinyamana Anzuruni that’s my point. Couldn’t we just say that dooku was doing the same thing? For political reasons.
@@harrisonbaylor1432 Dooku has Sith eyes at rare times during the Clone Wars show, particularily when he uses Dark Side powers. One example is when he trains Savage Opress and uses Force Lightning to punish his failure, there's one moment where the camera is on Dooku's face as he uses it and, if you look closely, you can see he has Sith eyes.
@@vynonyoutube1418 "Savage Opress", still possibly the dumbest name in SW lol
@@romusz completely agreed. No hate on clone wars though
Dooku had Sith eyes a few times during the clone wars, but he hid them most of the time
I swear Dooku would've done a good job if he became the emperor instead of Sidious.
felipe21279 Agreed, along with Vader.
Anyone could have done better, even Jar Jar.
@The Default Brothers Dooku never really fell, he was planning getting rid of Sidious and the Sith. He was the Severus Snape of Star Wars, he wanted to find out who was responsible for who trained the man who killed his apprentice. So he "joined" him only wanting to kill him to reform the republic.
Dookoo didn't have 'Sith Eyes' because he had 'Bette Davis Eyes'!
MegaRaven100 His hair is Harlow white, his beard a sweet surprise.
Lol
Dooku can be seen in specific moments in the clone wars series with sith eyes when he embraces the dark side but it goes away once he stops using it or calms down, similar to Darth Vader in episode when his eyes turned normal when talking to Padme.
Dooku: I have a one bladed and curved lightsaber
Inquistors: We have double bladed lightsabers that can let us fly
