[QUOTE="Lord Pendragon, post: 2434953, member: 707"] Dooku's got about as much sinister flair as my grandpa. Which is to say none at all. And Grievous' fighting style consisted of him getting his rear handed to him by a guy with [i]one[/i] lightsaber compared to his four. :p Admittedly, I'm not counting the cartoon here, because at the end of the day, it's a cartoon, not one of the movies. Still, I agree with you that this is all opinion. Tarkin makes a more entertaining villain for me, moreso than Maul or Grievous (especially Grievous), but I respect that your tastes are different. :) Regarding why Lucas' villains are so well-remembered, I think a large part of the reason is that the Star Wars villains are iconic. They have bold, symbolic designs, like superheroes (or villains :]) and as a result, they stick in your mind. Maul, like Vader, has a wonderful design. Too bad Lucas never gave him the plot to go with it. [/QUOTE]
