such a sinister sounding name for a good guy. “doom”

[@amajanuitales]

I mean the person who impersonated him was evil

[@Lupinemancer87]

So many loose ends in Bionicle. Such a shame it ended the way it did.

[@theconfidentchicken3414]

on the bright side, it could've ended much worse where it ended with no conclusion

[@Leonf123]

Shame it ended at all imagine what it could be now with so much lore behind it

[@wolffrdu6463]

indeed

[@Mediados]

I am glad it had an open end. It makes it feel alive after all these years to know that the characters are still out there, doing something.

[@dragondice9201]

I know right it would be cool if it came back and continued in a way where it wouldn’t be too complicated but it could take up where it left off but in a good way or it would be new to kids but they would have plenty to learn The original would feel like a Grand prequel to them I could even do Legacy says.

[@AlVainactual]

Wow I was under the impression that Dume had died during the events of the movie, thanks!

[@maximusthewolfreborn2118]

I found out he was alive the whole time when I was watching a narrative video about it, the line went “when turaga dume congratulated the toa on their quest”

[@Niten.]

I really love this youtube channel, Bionicle was a big piece of my childhood but I was never aware of how rich it lore was! this place has become my favorite part of youtube

[@HordikaNate3821]

Dume Teridax, is a mix of Emperor Palpatine and Evolto from Kamen Rider. He masqueraded and as a mentor, impersonated someone else who was a mentor to the Toa, yet he was their greatest enemy

[@Arcanist_The]

Tbh Teridax as whole is basically a less likable Evolt if you think about it. The two are really similar in terms of personality, role and how they're used in the narrative.

[@heartlessnobody1143]

True, evolt had cool ALIEN gas Powers, makuta Just has regular GAS alien powers, and 5 times more character interactions and lore

[@derrickfoltz8555]

Super underrated character. I call Dume’s Toa Team the Toa Amaja!

[@IBURION]

Yes, i think that he is the one of greatest Toa / Turaga. If Without him, the Dark Hunters would have been an even greater threat, and Metru Nui might have been under TSO's control.

[@derrickfoltz8555]

Definitely! And what a surprise to see you here, Bukkey!

[@No_Relation_666]

Anyone else think dume and vakama’s masks in the movie looks reversed? Like the set version of the by Kiril looks more like the movie version of the Huna

[@_mikael_mikael3380]

i Know this hasent Been talked about alot, But can you please teach us The different types of Fighting Moves (Mostly martial arts) Used by the Toa and Glatorian.

[@duddernator]

So was there a turaga of metru nui before Dume took on the role or was it just he and his toa team not only protecting the city but leading it as well?

[@amajanuitales]

There was a Turaga of Metru Nui before Dume.

[@Leonf123]

@@amajanuitales Any idea of what happened to said turaga? And who was he?

[@amajanuitales]

@@Leonf123 probably retired. We don’t know much about that Turaga.

[@username9426]

Very cool!

[@Nimrods7]

Where was Duma during the events of mask of light?

[@amajanuitales]

He was on Metru Nui rebuilding the city.

[@BasementDweller_]

Nice.

[@kunlesanders]

Toa Vakama: (looking at Turaga Dume inside the capsule) Turaga Dume? Turaga Lhikan: The "true" Turaga Dume. As I feared, an impostor is posing as a mask we all trust.

[@johangreen3465]

2:30 which mask did Jala have back then? For the mask he uses in mask of light is Lhikans old mask right? Also how did Jala loose his original mask? And isn't Jala very old, considering he was alive during an era even BEFORE the toa metru

[@amajanuitales]

His mask was a Red Komau. He later wore Lhikan’s old mask when his Red Komau was broken. This is depicted in the 2nd Bionicle movie, Legends of Metru Nui.

[@BrendanSith1997]

Dume make friends with Sonata Dusk.

[@ricsi97ful]

Metru Nui was before Mata Nui (island). no? 🤔

[@michaelbarker6732]

after the events of Mask of Light the Matoran, toa nuva, and the turaga all went back to metru nui. Kindof confusing that they started there then left then went back lol.

[@ricsi97ful]

@@michaelbarker6732 it is😅

[@iked0394]

I found it online
