Yes please! He was a pleasure to watch and one of my favorite actors! Great movies he was in. I would buy a holo statue in his honor

If people didn't want to have people disagree/discuss/debate their idea's then putting it on a public forum is a pretty silly idea. I'm sure there are other, more private ways of communicating with Bioware.

To be fair, I assumed that if there was a specific example of people talking like this for that game it was probably an older example / something that had happened a while ago.

I don't see it ruining anything and I started the thread, they've a right to their (obviously completely wrong! ) opinion and a right to dismiss it. with that in mind I've only really seen one major naysayer which honestly mostly seems to be along the lines of beliving that memorials for celberties is a bad idea period.

over all some sort of minor tip of the hat to Christopher Lee though I think might be nice. even if it's simply dedicating patch 3.3 "to the memory of Christopher Lee"
SWTOR is not SWG. it was never intended to be at all like SWG. and having a completly differnt design philophesy then SWG will never be like SWG

I've seen Christopher Lee in Movies from as far back as the 50's, and maybe late 40's seeing him in regular dramatic roles on TCM/ Turner Classic movies, which they will be having a Chrsopher Lee movie Marathin on June 22nd I believe. Should probably go to TCM.com for more info.

He was Born in 1922 and lived a long life til' this year of 2015.

I never got into his movies because the ones i knew of him being in were strictly 60's to 80's Horror type movies. I Hope channel TCM will have some of his more Dramatic movies. Unfortunately, I don't think Christopher Lee got the recognition he deserved like the Guy who played Moff tarkin in Ep:4. Sorry i can't believe i forgot his name.

But both actor are well known by Horror movie Enthusiasts all around.Both Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing were doing what a lot of ppl might call the Golden age of Horror-Suspense films in the 50's and 60's.

I wished Lucas and LucasFilm would've done more in-depth character shows and maybe a few Darth Dooku books about Dooku's life, and would've shown more of him in shows more about the Man and his Motivations. Just more characterizations about how Powerful he really was.

Yes there is Clone Wars Adventures then Clone Wars that has him as the Main character of those Episodes. Stuff also in books and a lot more info on his Star Wars life on Wookiee-pedia.

But in my opinion I think they could've have done a LOT more better in showing that Dooku was was indeed one of the best Saberists in the Galaxy and a very good Force user. The stupid Clone Wars made Dooku look like an idiots and a fool always on the run, when in fact most of his life he was very Cunning and a very powerful force in molding
in how Dooku helped half of the Galaxy along with Sidious lead a Rebellion against the Republic, and that's a Major feat that only people that could use Real Etiquete and able to use Honor and Nobility to help win over parts of the Galaxy that Palpatine could not.

Honor and Nobility do not in any way describe a Sith, but Dooku and Palpatine were able to do what other Sith, but only few in all the known Star War Universe were able to do, and smart enough to do.

I think it would be very nice if Bioware did make a Darth Dooku/ Tyrannus statue.

There is actually a huge gap between episode 1 and 2 that I am surprised has never really been focused on ( always this 2 to 3 crap or 3 to 4 which at least has a large interesting gap ) - with that you could truly focus on the character and his fall to the darkside.
Maybe they will do something like this one day ( there could be books, none I've heard of/read though ) though I doubt it yet no doubt will get even more filler in those same old, tired timer periods until Episode 7 releases and we then get filler for 6 to 7 which should also be good.
