Star Wars Celebration Day - Interview with Christopher Lee

[DrinkOmally]

i think triage is the last film he's done where he's had a big part and carried himself quite well. sadly i dont think he'll ever have a large role in any more films

[imkindaDasH]

a nobody dosn't have the right to know. neither does it have the right to exist...

[Dethelem]

His voice is just magical.

[jhibbitt1]

his deep voice is seconded in deepness only by james earl jones

[HelloGreedo]

I can't believe people cheered when they saw yoda with a lightsaber. It's so incredibly lame. The prequals are trash.

[jbm2005]

this is real sweet, thanx

[bbphnix]

nerdgasm over here!!!!

this guy maxes out any awesomeness rating system..... I mean, he both darth tyranus and saruman of many colors!!! that guy is soooo lucky!!

[kabloom321]

His voice made the interview seem like an epic movie itself.

[FatPizza56]

Count Dooku :)

[EligosPoltergiest]

Definitely a legend in acting. I've seen Christopher Lee in so many great films, and he plays his role very well!

[Gejopoo]

I would like to meet him again. A man of great intelligence and with a wonderful sense of humour.

[sentrymead11]

I like the bass lightsabers

[dollarism]

For some people here, Christopher lee made the voiceover of Ansem the wise/Diz from Kingdom Hearts 2 , and wow that was incredible.Great video.

[92af]

Christopher Lee is totaly better than Rod Steiger was.

[DannyBoy777777]

Darth Tyranus! He was a good Sith Lord - Maul was a pitbull, Tyranus/Dooku was classy and clever - Vader a smart, methodical powerhouse.

[dddenham]

The presence of Christopher Lee in ep. II & III ties it all in nicely with Peter Cushing in ep.IV

[supermanizgay]

what?

[lightingcobra]

@dddenham Amen!

[spauldinghaig]

hes what i like the most about the new trilogy

[CineRecon]

Lee carries such a great weight. Man his voice just makes every guy in the room sound like a little school girl!

[penky6303]

Christopher Lee financed LOTR he eevn wahnted to be Dumbledor in Harry Potter its logic he liked LOTR more than SW than isnt it?

[Dmasterman]

Christopher Lee is the man!

[HomoAngelus]

Thank you for sharing this video.His appearance is always fascinating.

[BeanerWalsh]

Lord of the Rings???

Oh shit!!

What the hell did I miss???

[alitllebitemo]

that he plays sauruman!

[BeanerWalsh]

ohhhh hahbaha I remember now.

[JmetroOel]

is he dead?

[92af]

No his not

[pndb]

LOL when the public hears him speaking for first time they just "Whooa". He got a divine voice.

[juresaiyan]

He was happier for LOTR. He likes it more than SW. But still great.

[Jmirand01]

what makes you say that?

[juresaiyan]

I guess so. He's a big fan of Tolkien.

[Jmirand01]

true

[Zepp900]

''He was happier for LOTR. He likes it more than SW. But still great.''

Have you asked him that in person? If not then you obviously just prefer LOTR and hope he likes it better.

[juresaiyan]

No pal. I'm a MUCH bigger fan of Star Wars. The fact is that he really likes Tolkien' books.

[Dmasterman]

I think he was a fan of Tolkein's books, but I don't ever remember him saying he preferred LOTR over Star Wars. In fact, in one Maxim Interview, he claims Dooku would beat Saruman.

[KRATOSRETURNS]

lee is a living legend!

[aris224]

This man has one of the most impressive voices I've ever heard! Just remember the scene in LOTR 2 where he sais: "A new power is rising! It's victory is at hand!"

[panad0r]

You forgot his most awesome role (voiceacting, ok...) - DEATH!

[beerdogfood]

Saruman, Count Dracula, Count Dooku, Scaramanga, Lord Sommersile,.. Lee = #1!

[xlnrhl]

This is a man who has played both Count Dracula and Count Dooku ... beat that Bela Lugosi.

[Catuveluni]

Why have young people started 'wooing' like a bunch of yanks.

[obsidiantech]

what should they do? Stomp their feet ike a bunch of limeys?

[Catuveluni]

Would be nice.

[obsidiantech]

limey

[claytron9000]

I expect alot of the geeks there were American. WOOO YEEEAAHH!!! USA!!!

I can't recall ever experiencing a time when the crowd stomped their feet in appreciation instead of cheering either. what are you on about moron?

[obsidiantech]

ah, you poor poor brit with an inferiority complex and bad dental work, lol, just be yourself, that's punishment enough

[awsomenesscaleb]

Because Count Dooku is the coolest Star Wars character EVER!

[obsidiantech]

I couldn't disagree with you more, I do give you credit though Awesomenesscaleb, Count Dooku did in fact kick ass, however I think we can all agree, Boba Fett was by far the coolest star wars character to ever be thought of by GL

[awsomenesscaleb]

I don't know... Count Dooku VS. Boba Fett... I bet Dooku would chop Boba's head off just like Mace Windu did to his father.

[obsidiantech]

Hmmm..good title match however I bet Boba Fett would kill him in his sleep, Dooku wasn't exactly young

[awsomenesscaleb]

Dooku doesn't sleep... He meditates. LOL

[obsidiantech]

ROTFL hahah, okay you win

[awsomenesscaleb]

No. Dooku wins.

[obsidiantech]

Boba Fett just walked away with Dooku's head in a burlap sack

[Aragiss]

I just love his voice

[cuchulain55]

of course you love it its the voice of saruman.:)

[childofchilds]

haha I KNOW! I wish I could get some books on tape by him or something...

[Aragiss]

Great idea man!

[DarkPrimeGS]

Where can I find the rest of this interview? I'd really appreciate it, thanks.

[akamortis]

Im not sure if such footage exists, this is all we filmed of the interview unfortunately.

[leia0organa]

too bad the count died

[PhotoLips]

You are lucky.  Awesome...

[giggsdadragon]

Unfortunutley he was never proclaimed in a famous actor! I write a novel and one of carachters is like him! His old but in my eyes one of my most memorible actors!

[DwightFry78]

He has a wonderful sense of humor. He should do more comedies, the world is missing a great funnyman.

[ISB]

hehehe, notice the crowd's reaction at 0:53 sec. when he first starts to speak, in his cool deep voice.

[Hobbitska]

HE is absolutelly great!!! I love HIM!

[SteVin89]

''He wasn't there!'' Haha, didn't know he was a comical genius! He's great!

[ISB]

wow! knight him! knight him now!

thanks for the upload! any more?

[akamortis]

Sorry that's my lot for Christopher lee, he didnt make anymore public appearances that day apart from walking on the red carpet for the ROTS premier. We did film an interview with Anthony Daniels though which was just after Christopher's interview.

[Emy8]

Great! I wish there was more. When was that?

Christopher lee is the best, no matter what film he is in.

[akamortis]

It was on May 16th 2005. I took the day off especially to go up there. It was a fantastic day that i'll never forget. Unfortunately I didnt get to see ROTS that day cos the tickets had sold out but enjoyed watching some of the other films on the big screen again in leicester square. Nothing like watching star wars on a huge screen!
