@@KMerse1 I concur,but people fail to give proper credit to Darth John Williams :) Hell, I bought my dvd of Revenge of The Sith at...the gas station.And then bought the soundtrack cd :)
Really? I'm glad you told me that, it tells me where to direct my issue. This scene honestly feels a little ridiculous to me. I definitely understand Dooku believing this was the plan to the end of the Clone Wars, and I understand all of the thoughts/doubts/wishes he has here. But for the life of me I cannot imagine him being stupid enough to voice any of the thoughts that weren't about Anakin to Palpatine. Talking to a Sith like that may as well be holding up a big neon sign saying 'I should die now.'
For all the evil Dooku has done, I can't help but feel this scene makes me feel bad for him. A man who wanted to bring a new age of order and a better government and realized too late his own master saw him as nothing more than a pawn.
The ROTS Novelization was one of the first Star Wars books I read growing up. It was captivating to see the events behind the characters' eyes, but it was also melancholic to see these interactions between such dynamic characters that we unfortunately never see make it to the big screen. Dooku did so much for Sidious, and in the end he was discarded without remorse. Great job, as always, Stories!
Completely agree. Palpatine convincing Hego that the Jedi had to be destroyed philosophically before they can be destroted physically was intense writing.
This is one of my favourite parts from the novel, it makes me so happy to see it brought to life. I wish this had been an actual deleted scene, to see Christopher Lee and Ian McDiarmid exchange dialogue like this would have been amazing. Thank you for making this.
This is truly amazing. This is whats's keeping my love for star wars today. I would LOVE to see more scenes from the novels adapted into these videos !!!!
I love these stories. This particular conversation that takes place, not seen in the movie, right before Anakin and Obi-Wan show up is actually canon from Matthew Stover's novelization of ROTS. It's a great read and my personal all time favorite book.
I'd heard this conversation took place in the novelization but haven't read it myself. Does this video match the text or is the dialogue here based upon it?
I've never liked the idea of Dooku being this aware of Palpatine's plans regarding Anakin and still obedient enough to play along. I mean, of course he is loyal, but it's because he's constantly assured of his future role as a second-in-command in Sidious-reigned galaxy. He knows the Rule of Two and he's clearly no fool, so hearing what he heard here he'd immediately understand he's expendable and he'll soon be replaced by Skywalker if he fulfills his role to the end. Even more, I was also disappointed when Filoni made him responsible for planting Order 66 within clones. Meaning that he knew from the start he would be leading the war meant to be lost. It would be so much cooler if Dooku knew only one scenario - of Separatist victory over the Republic - while Palpatine starting the Clone Wars was prepared for both sides to eventually win. So it would be EITHER Order 66 and Republic transformation into the Empire OR Separatists becoming dominant force in the galaxy and decimation of the Jedi by their hands.
It also shows how Dooku never truly saw himself as a Sith. He saw his role at Palpatine's side as a temporary one to reach his political goals. He thought the Dark Side was merely a tool that he could use and discard when it suited him, but that's never the case.
I really love these. Since Dooku was ranting about Grievous’ failings, could you make one of these videos focusing on Grievous next? Maybe one where he argues about his strength despite not having the force and practically being a robot?
@raistlin3462 “Play your part [...] Palpatine and Anakin.” ======================== I do not think that Sidious ever intended to share power with Anakin either.
3:58 good point - if Dooku killed Obi-Wan and made Anakin fall to dark side, what makes anyone think Anakin would then join Kenobi's murderer's side just like that and listen? Then again, after Windu's death, Anakin just like that agreed with Palpatine Obi-Wan was an enemy like all Jedi.
Also, a maverick Jedi such as Dooku siding with the master of the man who killed his padawan with little resentment. I could see Anakin doing the same.
That dialogue did happen in the novel of rots and right before Kenobi and Skywalker fought dooku. Still do the average clone and a battle droid in the no man land having to comfort each other in the galactic war
I don't normally comment on videos, but I just wanted to thank you for these. Please do a “Palpatine and Kreia conversation.” Seeing these two minds conversate would be so interesting!
Taken straight from the Revenge of the Sith novelization. Here’s a link to the audiobook reading of this scene from the novelization: ua-cam.com/video/YoyhreUH3nA/v-deo.htmlsi=fhemufQ2PW5gF3Zc
Disney _can't even hire anyone properly these days._ Or won't - out of spite. Why do people keep suggesting that Disney should be hiring someone? They can't be trusted with SW franchise. _Period._
What always makes me chuckle is Dooku was 20 years older than his "Master" Sidious, yet he was so easily manipulated by the Sith Lord. Guess he wasnt as "wise" as he thought he was
Palpatine/Sidious' greatest weapon as a Sith is not his lightsaber combat skills, nor his abilities granted through the Force such as telekinesis or lightning blasts, it is his keen foresight, strategic mind, and masterful way with words.
To quote Ki-Adi Mundi: “He’s a political idealist, not a murderer.” He was idealistic thinking he could use Sidious to serve his own political interests, but wasn’t cunning enough to realize Sidious was using him and planned to murder him as soon as a better pawn showed up.
YES! I've been saying this for ages. He knew full well that Sidious had a creepy obsession with Anakin and the whole Rule of Two was common knowledge in Jedi circles, yet he still didn't suss until he got executed.
If star wars made a what if series I think the best scenario would be what if the yuuzhan vong started their invision A few months before the revenge of the Sith It could be animated and be rated MA It would be amazing
The last time he would speak to Palpetine and breathe... 😔 Only when it was far too late he had been used for a greater power that would replace him. And that Palpetine has planned this all along.
Do the Dooku quote about how the Jedi Order's problem is Yoda, and about corruption and slavery. It showcases Dooku being right, but also on the path to becoming the very thing he swore to destroy, so so perfectly. And beyond that... How about the canonical but unspecified interaction between Mother Talzin and Jedi Master Dooku, in which Dooku did her an unspecified favour?
Anakin is perfect and ready in Sidious own words to kill Dooku and take his place as Sidious true apprentice just in time as the empire is born. Sidious plays Dooku like a fiddle in the revenge of the Sith and sets him up For the slaughter as one of the final steps on Anakin’s path to the dark side.
@@QwuithLordDartox I'm not convinced of that particular theory personally; but even if Vader was at his theoretical 'full power', it would not have mattered, he was like all of Palpatine's apprentices a pawn to be used and discarded, he played him knowingly from beginning to end, just as he did Maul and just as he did Dooku, at the very least in Dooku's case they did work together to destroy the Republic, which is more agency then you can assign to the other two broken men he pupated about.
Jus to be clear Dooku never liked being a villain and despite however horrible of the things that he’s done, he’s done so for what he thought was for the betterment of the galaxy and for the greater good to make for a reformed and better order unburdened by the old traditions
what if : Darth Plagueis appears and tells Count Dokuu "With a banker,you know you'd get screwed over but at least get some benefit from it. Never trust a politician though."
With the Season 7 Clone Wars Finale taking place during Episode 3, I really want to know that conversation Palps & Dooku had when Anakin & Obi-Wan went to Mandalore to deal with Maul. Dooku's like "Master we're here." Palps- "Skywalker's not here." Dooku- "Why isnt he?" Palps- "Maul's made him go to Mandalore." Dooku- "Well too late for us to turn around." Palps- "Damn it." Dooku- "You should've killed Maul on Mandalore." Palps- "Shut Up!!!"
_Can we get a break from Force-related stuff for once?_ I would love to see Vader talking with either *Thrawn, Thanoth, or Gideon.* With the former, he would discuss the Art of War. And with the latter two, he would review them as candidates for ISB.
Bro, you gotta listen to me! I have ideas! Do a video of Luke interacting with his son Ben, and another video of Ben interacting with his mom, Mara Jade, then Ben interacting with Anakin. Ben with Qui Gon, Obi-Wan. And Padme, if that could be possible. Or even Han and Leia. Do these videos please. E
For those unaware, it's from the ROTS novel, before the duel on the invisible hand.
And one of the reasons why the book is so much better than the movie - while the movie itself is already one of the best Star Wars pieces ever.
Its not the whole thing from the novel, there was a sentence cut I believe. Nonetheless, still amazing.
That’s the ship grievous was on am I correct? The ship name I mean
@@KMerse1 I concur,but people fail to give proper credit to Darth John Williams :) Hell, I bought my dvd of Revenge of The Sith at...the gas station.And then bought the soundtrack cd :)

Talking to a Sith like that may as well be holding up a big neon sign saying 'I should die now.'
Palpatine: "Anakin is perfect just the way he is"
*Anakin gets major burns and 3 limbs chopped off*
Palpatine: "Well, fuck..."
"How fortunate I am to be lectured by my own apprentice."
Cold AF.
For all the evil Dooku has done, I can't help but feel this scene makes me feel bad for him. A man who wanted to bring a new age of order and a better government and realized too late his own master saw him as nothing more than a pawn.
He never knew the chaos and corruption he wanted to stop was caused by the Sith over centuries to set up the clone wars and fall of the Jedi.
His ideology is horrendous. A human centric galaxy. He was very xenophobic sure no corruption but enjoyed slavery and oppression of others
Both He and Darth Maul were one step behind against Darth Sidious.
The road to hell is paved with good intentions. He deserved his fate. He was a murdererous dictator and made a deal with the Devil.
Like Maul.
The ROTS Novelization was one of the first Star Wars books I read growing up. It was captivating to see the events behind the characters' eyes, but it was also melancholic to see these interactions between such dynamic characters that we unfortunately never see make it to the big screen.

It would be great to have Plagueis and Sidious conversations from the Plagueis novel in this format
My thoughts exactly!
Oh god, the scene when Palpatine gloats over Plagueis while he's dying with the AI voices.
Completely agree. Palpatine convincing Hego that the Jedi had to be destroyed philosophically before they can be destroted physically was intense writing.
The ai for palpatine will need to be aged accordingly depending on the conversations
@@Grid433
Just replace Darth Sidious voice with the casual Palpatine one.
Nothing needs to be "aged" per se.
So glad you did Christopher Lee's voice. Also the book is incredible.
What book?
@@BuriedAlien-TRN242Revenge of the Sith
Thank you for finally using Dooku’s real voice.
“How fortunate am I to how have an apprentice who can lecture me”-palpatine I have admitted the future emperor was a patient one
These are getting better.
It’s because the creator is now using text from novels. This is much better than AI conversations
This is one of my favourite parts from the novel, it makes me so happy to see it brought to life. I wish this had been an actual deleted scene, to see Christopher Lee and Ian McDiarmid exchange dialogue like this would have been amazing.
Thank you for making this.
This shit is deadass canon
It makes Dooku a shallow speciest and elitist so I don't really like it.
@@J10005 Same
Not anymore, unfortunately.
Lucasfilm & Disney declared Stover's novel non-canon several times since rebooting the timeline.

The ROTS book is one of my favorite too. Did such great job displaying Sideous's manipulation of Anakin.
@@sbs3000 Pretty much. One of the best parts of the book. Really gave more heft to Sideous's betrayal of Dooku.
@@lukeskywalker4223 So, is the dialogue here exact quotes from the book?
@@sbs3000 Yes. I've read that book numerous times and this was one of the best parts of it. It's right in the novel.
There's something so refreshing seeing Dooku and sidious just casually talking and not just scheming
I've never liked the idea of Dooku being this aware of Palpatine's plans regarding Anakin and still obedient enough to play along.

Have that one noted actually :)
@@Skywalker_Stories
Note Vader with Thrawn, as well as Thanoth and Gideon if possible.
I really love these. Since Dooku was ranting about Grievous’ failings, could you make one of these videos focusing on Grievous next? Maybe one where he argues about his strength despite not having the force and practically being a robot?
Maul and Dooku conversation from Son of Dathomir comic book would be great.
0:52 Dooku's not the only apprentice you have who has an interest in Kenobi
All of his apprentice's have that interest 😅
"Play your part, my apprentice, and the Galaxy will be ours."
Technically true, I guess. "Ours" meaning Palpatine and Anakin.
Lol
@raistlin3462
“Play your part [...] Palpatine and Anakin.”
========================
I do not think that Sidious ever intended to share power with Anakin either.
Before Mustafar: Yes and EVEN being defeated/ killed by him but after Mustafar: Yes (Never sharing Power).
3:58 good point - if Dooku killed Obi-Wan and made Anakin fall to dark side, what makes anyone think Anakin would then join Kenobi's murderer's side just like that and listen?
Then again, after Windu's death, Anakin just like that agreed with Palpatine Obi-Wan was an enemy like all Jedi.
How did Anakin know they clones would betray they Jedi or did he see it as him killing they Jedi only
Also, a maverick Jedi such as Dooku siding with the master of the man who killed his padawan with little resentment. I could see Anakin doing the same.

This is absolutely AMAZING. 🎉🎉🎉
Well done Skywalker Stories.
Disney needs to hire you. Your videos ooze master quality craftsmanship.
Keep up the good work producing these Star Wars AI magnum opus masterpieces.
I couldn’t agree more with that statement %1,000
Disney _can't even hire anyone properly these days._ Or won't - out of spite.
Why do people keep suggesting that Disney should be hiring someone?
They can't be trusted with SW franchise. _Period._
Agreed❤❤❤
This should have been a deleted scene in revenge of the Sith it would have been an interesting scene in the film a good send off of dooku.
Maybe in a Clone Wars animated Adaptation of Revenge of The Sith that would be Clone Wars voiced
If Kenobi is essentially his grandson then Skywalker is his great-grandson.
Yes but he never heard Qui-Gon speak so highly about Anakin Skywalker like he did Obi-Wan kenobi. All he sees is a reckless boy
@samparsons5867 I'm aware lol just pointing to the flaw in his logic. Qui-Gon having died before he could do anything
What always makes me chuckle is Dooku was 20 years older than his "Master" Sidious, yet he was so easily manipulated by the Sith Lord. Guess he wasnt as "wise" as he thought he was
Palpatine/Sidious' greatest weapon as a Sith is not his lightsaber combat skills, nor his abilities granted through the Force such as telekinesis or lightning blasts, it is his keen foresight, strategic mind, and masterful way with words.
When I saw the title I was hoping it was going to be this conversation. Great work!
This is from the novel. I like this discussion.
Do more novelisation translations
Surprised Palps didnt try to kill Obi-Wan himself, having all 3 apprentices always talking about him 😂
Dooku was such an idiot & a tool. I can't believe it trusted sidious so much. & In the end dooku looses his head
To quote Ki-Adi Mundi: “He’s a political idealist, not a murderer.”
He was idealistic thinking he could use Sidious to serve his own political interests, but wasn’t cunning enough to realize Sidious was using him and planned to murder him as soon as a better pawn showed up.
Like Anakin, he was a fool for trusting Palpatine until he saw him trying to kill his own son.
YES! I've been saying this for ages. He knew full well that Sidious had a creepy obsession with Anakin and the whole Rule of Two was common knowledge in Jedi circles, yet he still didn't suss until he got executed.
Dooku made so many mistakes during clone wars, about getting captured by pirates, captured by Maul and he still complains about it.
Count Dooku thought of Qui-Gon jinn as a son thus making Obi-Wan his Grandson he’s part of a legacy
If star wars made a what if series I think the best scenario
would be what if the yuuzhan vong started their invision A few months before the revenge of the Sith
It could be animated and be rated MA
It would be amazing

Keep ‘em coming
Would have loved a bit on the Rule of Two to help people see how Palpatine explained his plan to Dooku while “maintaining balance”.
This makes me wonder if deep within Dooku, a part of him was still a Jedi. There was a slight hesitancy at times during this discussion.
Love to see an altarnate history story were Dooku killed Palpatine and became the sith master.
“Treachery is the way of the Sith.” Tyrannus was a fool.

No. screw the sequels.
This conversation was in the book
Little did he know. 😦
Would be nice to have the opera scene passage from the novel
Qui-Gon Jin talks with Kreia/Darth Traya~~~
4:50 - 4:55
In reality, the galaxy would be Palpatine's.
Count Dooku's faults are very well demonstrated here.
I like how everyone here speaks as if they're poets.
They are leaders, Sith knights and Jedi knights, obviously all of them have preparation. Then, they speak in that way.
Movies of the future, will be made by AI
Any chance you can do Kreia describing the Force? Lol
You have already done a video between Revan and Anakin Skywalker. Can you do a video between Revan and Darth Vader as well?
