What was even the point of this character? He does fuck all the entire movie which is just completely boring and terrible political bullshit, then he shows up at the end when the door opens and an entire battalion of soldiers just stand there instead of blasting him to shit like they did to the other Jedi during the purge.

The prequels were so fucking terrible.

Instead of thinking up just one interesting character as Sheev's apprentice, George decided to make 3 completely forgettable characters.

Why? Don't fucking ask me, I've long since given up on trying to decipher that fat fuck's thought process.

>George decided to make 3 completely forgettable characters

Who was the 3rd? Grevious wasnt Sheev's apprentice

Didn't Sheev teach him lightsaber combat?

I don't fucking know, George sucks at bad guys is what I'm saying.

>le prequels are bad meme
Just stop, I'm not going to bother explaining why they're the pinnacles of film making as clearly that'll go over your head, what about the emotional impact it has had on millions of people? Me and my wife's son were so excited to see the Phantom Menace, and then actually watching it... It helped bring us together, well, more or less, he still prefers his mother's friend who comes visits when I'm working weekends

Look at Boba fett and tell me you can't create a good character solely on mystery and the imagination of the viewer.

The biggest mistake Lucas made with darth maul was limiting him to a small part of episode 1, which would go on to become the least liked prequel because of jar jar and pod racing. Even though episode 2 is objectively worse tbqh famalam

The door opening was the best scene in the movie though.

>>64331106
Sell merchandise.
>>
>>64331106
Maul existed for three reasons: to kill quigon, to have a sick, over-choreographed 2-on-1 lightsaber fight, and to sell merchandise.

Dooku did in the cartoon.

No my good sir it is YOU who is the retard if I may say so myself.

Straight out of Revenge of the Sith
Too bad the prequels aren't canon lmao
>>
>>64332864
He says it to obi Wan in Episode 3 too
>I have been trained in your jedi arts by count Dooku

RotS and AotC came out way before the TCW cartoon, yet there are plenty of cross references, like Grievous recognizing Obi but not Anakin, or Yoda explaining how Qui gon helped him to learn how to become a force ghost and that he'd teach Obi Wan

I wonder how they planned all of this
>>
>Obi Wan lost to Dooku twice
>Dooku trained Grievous

Great job Lucas.

>>64332925
It's more like "Count DOOOOku"

hes just a cyborg faggot with no force you idiot

>>64333091
>cyborg faggot with no force
>absolutely wrecked half the jedi council
Yea okay then.
>>
>>64333164
Are you talking about the Genndy cartoon?

Also he doesn't kill any council member afaik
>>
>>64333247
Yea he's talking about the cartoon and he definitely killed a few jedi masters in the cartoon and EU stuff.
>>
>>64333519
EU I wouldn't know, but in TCW I only remember him killing Kit Fisto's faggot padawan, while in CW he kills what appears to be padawans and knights while Ki Adi and Shaak Ti both get away

I'm always ready to learn though
>>
>>64333620
Found an apparent list here: http://forum.rebelscum.com/t1022285/

A good portion of those are masters.
>>
>>64333247
If I remember right he kills a few masters in that one Genndy episode where they're trapped on a desert planet or some shit.
>>
>>64333980
So you wereright, he kills at least 3 even in CW, though that serie seems to treat everyone as either padawan or master

Also the list is not completely right since Adi Gallia was killed by opress
>>
>>64331220
Each one represented an aspect of Darth Vader.

Maul was the intimidating enforcer, Dooku was the fallen Jedi and Grievous was a cyborg with breathing problems.
>>
>>64331106
Jar Jar Binks was honestly a great character, and brought much needed levity and comic relief to the series. He was truly original and imaginative, things that TFA was not in the least. The only people that hate him are redditors because le plinkett told them to

This scene. He's a fucking cyborg Jedi. It makes Obi Wan pointing his lightsaber forward feel so much worse than it already did.

I wont scatter your franchise into the heartless fanbase.
