HOLY FUCK! Wanna see how Dooku dies?

Post by Vympel »

This was just too cool to not deserve it's own thread. I'm not breaking any rules, since it's not hosted on here. I think :)

The above is a higher quality version of one of their battle posted in the spoiler thread.

What am I looking for? Dooku's cowering, but that's about it AFAIK.

Sweet. I've got to HAND it to George, he might up the ratings to PG-13 yet... as long as he doesn't go blaster-hits-to-chest-in-ANH on us at the last moment.

Can't you tell that Dooku has no hands? What do you think Anakin's about to do by holding both lightsabres that way?

Can you say scissors?

Someone been visiting millenniumfalcon.com? They seem to have the best track record with spoilers. Just wondering if there is another reliable source for spoilers.

I would guess that, like with a lot of things, it looks much better when actually in motion rather than as just a still.

It looks pretty much like the Throne Room on DS2. In ROTJ Vader would have had a dreaded sense of deja-vu :mrgreen:

I think he's lost his right and clutching the stump with his left.

Concur. I think that there's some smoke visible around his left wrist, too. :twisted:

Yesss... it is growing in your monitor... embrace it!

All joking aside, this might actually make the movie worth seeing.

It also seem to me that Lucas has some sort of fetish about chopped hands. Luke lost his to Vader on Bespin, Darth Vader lost his to his son on DS2, Anakin lost hist in the first place to Dooku (Geonosis), now Dooku lost both his hands to Anakin.5 chopped hands in 4 movies, all in lightsabre duels. :twisted:
