Darth Vader was originally name.. It should've remained a name! But somebody grew tired of SW and became lazy.

Vader STILL could've been Luke's father, or just simply believed he was. Vader and Anakin could've been vying for the attention of the same gal, and she gets pregnant and doesn't tell either one who the real father is...

Days of Our Lives-Star Wars, man!

DARTH IS A NAME!!

It's the stupid EU that blew this out of proportion. I really would like to know the first usage of Darth as a title! I want to blame somebody for this stupidity!

Oh yeah... who's the babe in the ST outfit? Wow! And I thought I've seen it all!

Darth Plagueis, eh? Heck, I'm going to wind up remembering that as "Darth Pelagius" anyway, so why not start now? Heck, you could do a series - Darth Arius, Darth Albigensis, etc. etc. etc.

Still not as stupid as "Cout Dooku", though.

"Darth Albigensis". biggrin.gif If it were possible to rate posts I'd give you eleven out of ten for the reference.

What happened to Lucas's ability to create good names? Maybe he never had it. Some of the earlier names for the characters of Star Wars are just as stupid as "Dooku" and "Sidious". And then there's Return of the Jedi with its "Salacious Crumb" and "Mon Calamari" and so forth.

Dooku, or Doku rather, means "poison" or "venom" in Japanese. So it's actually a pretty cool name to me.

I think the idea of Christopher Lee becoming a "Count" once again as a villain is lame. Not to mention its lame to call him Count Duke-ooh. Howbout we have Baron Lorda, and King Princia, and Emperor Vissroy, and Prime Minister Presdentia. Its like he couldn't think of a real name to use.

Count D. something for Christopher Lee was obvious "I hired the guy who played Dracula" wankery - and for all it means poison - it still sounds lame and and WASN'T DOOKU SUPPOSED TO BE MYSTERIOUS AND AMBIGUOUS - My name is Formal Title Poison... I am ambiguous you see.

Damn fishmonkey of a director.

Moreover, as I've noted elsewhere, "Dooku" is pronounced differently from the Japanese word for "poison" - "Doku" should be spoken with a short 'o' sound which rhymes with 'low'. The way it's pronounced in the movie, with a long 'o' sound rhyming with 'shoe', takes it out of Japanese entirely, since the language has no 'due' sound that I can find. (Question: Would a 'dyu' - どゅ sound be considered canonical?)

This was actually the moment I gave up on the movie - I figured 'Doe-koo' meant it had a prayer, where as 'Due-koo' meant it was doomed. When I heard a name rhyming with 'dookie' in the theater, I knew it was in the 'doomed' camp.
