5) Darth Maul
Darth Maul a huge fan favourite despite only appearing in Episode 1. Maul is
portrayed Ray Park in the film and never spoke a word but it was his
double-ended Light Saber that caught the fans eyes. Darth Maul was the
apprentice of Darth Sideous himself before being slain by Obi-Wan using his
master's saber (even though he didn't really die). Maul reappeared in the
animated series 'the Clone Wars' but never again in a film, Ultimately being
killed by Darth Vader.
4) Yoda
Yoda is perhaps the most world known character by people from the world over
and star Wars fans of any generation. Yoda was both voiced
and puppeteered by Frank Oz who also worked on The Muppets and Sesame
Street. Even Warwick Davis was costumed as him for part of Episode 1! Yoda is a
Jedi master and mastered some of the most well known Jedi including Mace Windu,
Count Dooku and Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Chewbacca is the loveable hairy Wookiee from the original trilogy of
the Star Wars Saga. Portrayed by Peter Mayhew in the original trilogy and
episode 3 Chewbacca (Chewie) is one of the most lovable characters in the Star
Wars universe even though he never speaks...(Any English anyway.) Chewbacca
became First Mate to Han Solo at the age of 200 after Solo refused an order as
an Imperial Guard to kill Chewie and to repay him decided to
protect Solo with his life from there on out.
2) Count Dooku
Count Dooku is the famous Jedi-turned-Sith Lord who appeared in the later 2
films in the prequel trilogy. Dooku was originally trained by Jedi master Yoda
and then went on to train Qui-Gon Jinn before being turned to the Dark side by
Darth Sideous and given the name 'Darth Tyranus'. Dooku is portrayed by the
legendary actor Christopher Lee who has also taken to the music scene
by releasing a HEAVY METAL album at the age of 90.....90!
1) Mace Windu
Mace
Windu has to be my favourite Star Wars character of all time. I know what you
may be saying "But Kai, the prequels were rubbish!" Well it just may
be that the prequels weren't as good as the original trilogy but they weren't
as bad as everyone makes them out to be. The prequels were the films that were
coming out when I was growing up so I have a greater connection to them even
though the originals were amazing. Mace Windu is played by the magnificent
Samuel L. Jackson and that in itself pretty much gives him first place. I joke
but Mace Windu is a Jedi Master along with Yoda and other Jedi, he is one of
the 'coolest' Jedi and he has a purple lightsaber. I love purple!
