eriku Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Maybe it's just my monitor, but I couldn't see if Dooku had hands or not until I pumped up the brightness in photoshop. Looks like he got BOTH hands lopped off. I wonder if Lucas has this phobia about losing his hands, and works it out through his movies. Too bad there isn't one more movie coming out, it could feature a beast that has five legs and looks strangely like a giant hand, and it's got tentacles that each terminate in another hand. A Jedi could spend half the film fighting that beast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About the rest, I dunno, sounds like potential Star Wars tentacle hentai. Edited December 12, 2004 by Duke Togo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anubis Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 It's a common technique when fighting a Jedi to lop off his swordfighting hand, that way he or she can no longer wield a lightsaber. It happened in a lot of the Dark Horse comics as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Togo Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Yeah, well, the real question is, does his head follow soon after?

Supposedly he made kind of a joke in an interview about LotR, because his head comes off in the extended version of RotK, and so he'll have lost his head twice. I think that's what it was.

But you're right, I'm sure its only a matter of time before the usual Bitch Brigade shows up to complain about the 18753th pixel from the left, or just a general prequel rant.

Sarensaas Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Looks like a handless Dooku. Yea, Lucas let this scene slip out during his commentary on ROTJ. He is talking during the scene Vader is climbing the stairs towards Luke, with Luke crying "Daddy I wont fight you" and all that and Lucas says something like "The Emperor wants Luke to kill Vader and take his place, because Vader did the exact same thing". At first I was like "Vader/Anakin kills his own non-existent father???" but it must be Dooku. The scene looks very close to the ROTJ scene. I wonder if a Jedi could be so powerful he could lightsaber battle without using his hands. I guess it is beyond the Force to be able to do that, but it would kind of be like Funnels from Gundam, taking on a bunch of guys around you with you holding one saber and 3 or 4 floating around you slicing up guys attacking from your backside (since a Jedi can see into the future, he would be able to see blindside attacks Spidey style) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could probably do that in the Star Wars RPG if you really wanted to... hmmm... something to try. Everyone elas eon the boards shouldn't have to censor themselves to please you. If you don't like it you don't have to click on the thread. I don't want that... but a spoiler warning would have been nice... that's all... not that I REALLY CARE! Cause I was 100% sure that was what would happen and that would be the moment that Anakin turned to the Dark Side... when he struck down a defenesless foe... instead of showing mercy.

Skippy438 Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 As long as Hayden doesn't f this scene up, it could be a great part of the flick. I hope I didn't jynx it ... Sam Jackson should've played Anakin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
