Has anyone thought of using John William's Dracula score to accompany Christopher Lee?

 

Just wondering...

Wow....I have some friends who have told me that's the best version of Dracula ever, but I've never seen the movie or heard the soundtrack before, and I just pulled it up on youtube.  It's definitely worth culling through for material.

I honestly find it amazing enough that Lucas was able to cast Christopher Lee in a role called Count D. with a long black cape and was able to somehow avoid being lambasted for doing something so absurdly fourth wall-breaking (maybe it just wasn't important considering everything else that was wrong?).

Either way, I don't know if Dracula is the right direction, but going back to the blandness of the AOTC score....did Dooku even have a theme?  I remember Darth Maul's theme.  I remember General Grevious' theme.  Maybe Dooku did....but I sure couldn't remember it to save my life, which is not good.

Be he a rogue Jedi, or a Dark Lord of the Sith, someone needs to find a better theme that fits with his character because he's underdeveloped enough as it is.
