Seriously, how tragic was this shit? Badass design, actor with actual martial arts skill-- killed off by a bullshit move in the first film. One of the many tragedies in the PT.
Wasted potential thread? Wasted potential thread.

They brought him back, and it was terrible
those horns are so fucking stupid
>>64123296
your fucking stupid
>>64123296
Without them he would look even dumber, instead of looking like a scary demon he would just look like a faggot with face paint
>>64123245
That's what makes him so good and mysterious, though.
The prequels had many many shitty things going on for it. Killing off some cool looking unknown who spoke two lines is the least of the prequels problems.
Goddamn Ray Park is awesome.
This is now a Ray Park Thread.
What the fuck even is he?
>>64123483
A Zabrak
>>64123340
I'm not aching for a backstory or more lines or anything-- I agree leaving that stuff behind is part of what makes him cool. I just think he'd have been better off as a recurring assassin-type character, showing up now and again to kill of someone important/sympathetic.
>>64123412
True, but keeping a character who could've actually been worth a squirt of piss would've helped alleviate some of the problems.

>visible glue on the horns
>>64123483
In-universe: a mixed-race alien.
IRL: nightmare fuel. Save for the shit horn glue.

Dathomiri Zabrak, with tattooes from his clan, the Dark sided Night Brothers
>>64123296
His brother has even better ones.

I'm sure you already know this thread was a mistake and your complaint is pointless and stupid right now.
Dooku was wasted potential. Darth Maul was nothing at all.
I really hope they bring him back. Just as one nod to the prequels. Just one. Unlikely though since they went to the trouble of nonsensically placing the Republic's capital on Hosnian Prime instead of Coruscant just so they wouldn't have to show it.
>>64123582
They were normal before he was transformed
>>64123641
You mean in the movies? That's an awful idea.
He was good as he was, basically a silent attack dog. Would've been nice if they didn't kill him so he could return in the sequels.
I mean, not as a robot tarantula centaur
>>64123660
Why? He is a really cool character, and since he's still canonically alive, they could use one of the movies (at least a spin-off one) to finally give him a proper death and bring the character to the sound conclusion that the EU denied him.
>>64123632
Dooku had literally nothing going for him. There was zero character. Just fucking NOTHING. Who even was Dooku? Who even cared? He was Christopher Lee. That's it. How could they have developed Dooku? What would have been his arc? What would his character have been? How could they have made him good? He was an old guy who rode on a hoverbike for a bit and had a cape. He was NOTHING.
Darth Maul at least could have had some bizarre twisted child soldier backstory to him, or he could've been an unstoppable, unemotional sith killing machine, hatred bursting out his veins.
>>64123693
He got normal legs
>>64123582
his name is savage opress?
george you absolute insanious
>>64123865
It was Georges daughter who invented the name.
A madman of a family
>>64123791
He was a respected senior jedi, master to Qui-Gon and student to Yoda. That would make his appeal for Obi-wan to turn to the dark side more sinister
>>64123865
With a soft "g", still stupid but yeah, his brother was called Feral. "Maul" was established to be Darth Mauls original name
>>64123789
No, he isn't. He's fucking barely anything at all. Even after his revival he's mostly nothing. I agree that the fact he's just hanging around in limbo now is amusing and stupid, but there's no reason to bring him back in the movies.
>>64123791
He at least had charisma and a backstory that tied into the main characters' situations while also foreshadowing the corruptive power of Sheev. Maul was literally nothing but a walking action scene.
>>64123296
Drink bleach, faggot.

>Maul was literally nothing but a walking action scene.
So give him one more with a definitive death. Preferably decapitation, being thrown into a trash compactor, or complete incineration with a n extended close up of the body, and a scene with a space mortician saying "yup, he's dead", so that no hack comic book writer can give him mechanical organs or some shit and revive him again.
