Well the emperor was cool. The plot line he had was **** but the character was actually pretty good. Even Plinkett liked him!
I actually agree, just couldn't be bothered to edit my post because of it
Dooku was interesting right up until he was revealed to simply be a Sith. The idea of a rogue Jedi who wasn't a sith was an interesting one. Of course Lucas had to **** that up.
The idea of a rogue jedi, sure. I'd love to have seen a former jedi that's neither black or white, as I'm bored to tears with force users only able to be saints on set kittens on fire. Instead, the implementation of Dooku was.. ugh. Starting from his idiotic name and the whole count Dracula thing he had going on, the character's imbecile-o-meter just kept going up from the moment he was introduced.
But for me, the worst movie character, ever, isn't Dooku. It isn't even Jar-Jar. It's "General Grievous". Even if we ignore the astoundingly unimaginative and downright dumb character name, he was a stupid, pointless character you could effortlessly cut out of the movie without losing anything important. Dumb, evil for the sake of being evil droid that coughs and does the evil cliche villain monlogue thing in
every scene he's in. If the movie he's in didn't suffer from ADHD and had to have action in every single scene, I swear they'd probably have had a scene with him explaining his evil plot while sitting in a large armchair behind a massive desk, twirling a mustache, wearing a monocle and a top hat, with a white evil looking cat in his lap. Why not? They had every other massively overdone cliche in movie history in there..
