Is Count Dooku retarded?
In Attack of the Clones Count Dooku reveals that Darth Sidious is running the show. Seeing as Dooku works for Sidious, why did he reveal this to the Jedi? Is he retarded?

As someone earlier said, it is because, like most Sith, (with the obvious exception of the quite obedient Darth Maul) Dooku wanted to be the master, so he wanted Obi-Wan to be his apprentice. Just like Palpatine and Anakin or Vader and Luke.

He's not retarded he just has ADD wanna bike?

Dooku isn't retarded: He's dead, Jim. Supposedly, (and you get this from the book, not the movie), Dooku had a deal with Palpatine (in the chance he loses to Anakin and Kenobi) to be turned over to the Jedi for punishment -- assumed to be jail. Besides, you don't have to be stupid to sin. Dooku murdered for power and glory. You reap what you sow.

The reason Dukoo said that the Leader of the republic is Sith is because He "Dukoo" is a seperatist (or so the council thought). No one knows at this time that Count Dukoo is a Sith. He is against the republic and on the side of the seperatist, So a Sith running the republic would be his sworn enemy. No one knows at this time that Palpatine/Sidious was controlling both side "Only Dukoo jis apprentice knew this" (This was the main part of Sidious'plan). That's why he told Obi that the republic was being ran by Sidious. He also thought that Obi would be killed during the execution anyway so he wouldn't live to tell about it. Him telling Obi that a Sith was running the republic was an attempt to make Obi believe that the senate was corrupt and maybe turn him into seperatist and divide the Jedi.

Dooku wasnt retarded, just overconfident that he could talk Obi-Wan into joining. ALL villains blab on an on about their master plan.


       Ryan and Andrew posts on 2/11/2006 11:03:34 AM

You are a cowerd and retarded. You Fatso.

Hey, Bang Bang, I never noticed that! Ha! That's actually quite funny!


       The commentator Bang Bang posts on 12/1/2005 4:49:35 PM

If Jedi and Sith are so good at seeing into the future, I wonder why Dooku didn't foresee that Darth Sidious would betray him and allow him to be killed. After all, when Anakin cuts off Dooku's hands with his lightsaber, Palpatine tells Anakin to kill him, and Dooku looks at the Emperor in shock and disbelief. But I guess Dooku was hoping to hang around long enough to assume the throne of master after Sidious passed on. By the way, after Anakin kills the now-handless Dooku, he says, "I killed an unarmed man." Ha! Anakin does have a sense of humor!!

Dooku is not retarded, it's just he never quite got over that mercury poisoning in his youth.


       Tim Ives posts on 11/29/2005 8:35:34 AM

The fantasy of every Sith lord is to slay their master and assume the position of ultimate power. Seeing that "there is always two," Dooku identified Obi-Wan as the most suitable accomplice to defeat the Emperor, as he is a grandson-like figure. (Vader propositioned Luke in a similar fashion) This proposition was obviously rejected, and Obi-Wan was to be killed. Unfortunately for Dooku, his calculated risks did not pay off.


       The commentator krista..starwars last 4E posts on 11/20/2005 3:27:52 PM

no he is not retarded...because is episode III he betrays him..so thats what he was actually planning to do in II.. he was just getting ready for betrayal..


       aliciaskywalker posts on 10/18/2005 8:02:45 AM

Hmm, let's think about that... he was Yoda's old padawan and he likes to hang with the Trade Federation.


       Mecyless posts on 10/17/2005 8:51:57 PM

Duku cant even kill a guy with ONE ARM. And your asking "is he retarded?". What do you think?


       The commentator Darth Bane posts on 10/13/2005 4:27:42 PM

Dooku believed that he knew Obi Wan. He believed that being Qui Gon Jinns apprentice (Who was Dookus own apprentice at one time) would be able to convince him that the Jedi Order is corrupt. Because the senate they serve is corrupt. A Senate ruled by a Dark Lord of the Sith. And Dooku is NOT a Dark Jedi. He is a Sith Lord. There is a difference. Always a master and an apprentice. Palpatine is a Master. Dooku is a Sith lord. Later replaced by Darth Vader. Assaji Ventress is a Dark Jedi.


       The commentator Evan Schneeweiss posts on 6/14/2005 8:00:19 PM

no not really he is not cause he is a good fighter with a lightsaber and his force


       Tammy Wineberger posts on 6/4/2005 4:44:51 PM

of course he;s retarded that;s the whole story of how dooku's dumb and that's why he got his head chopped off in episode 3 cause he was stupid enough to work for a double crosser like captin retardo palpatine a.k.a. the emperor.oh, a man of many faces, literally! ewwww!!
