Nope, it's keeping exactly what a command of the living force can do for someone trained in it.



You know some lightsabers do not even have an on/off switch on the outside of hilt? You have to use the force to trigger them on/off.


So, throwing an object and bringing it back with the force should be no problem.


I just wish SWG Jedi could pull an attackers weapon away from them and grab them in their hand, or wave their hand, "I'm not the bounty your looking for, go after that dancer instead..."

By that same token a saber should chop your arms off and a direct shot by a BH to someones head should disintigrate it or at least put a large hole in it

If you call lightsaber throw unrealistic then you have to say the same thing about the damage, in the movies you see saber cut through anything in SWG your lucky if you can cut a gungan.


and if we were playing that game, every jedi that got hit w/ a flamethrower would be dead. every one that got hit w/ a bomb droid would be dead, and every one that got shot in teh EYE would be dead, so lets not play that game, ok?

Well how about Force Healing? Where in any of the movies did you EVER see a Jedi use Force Heal? Whenever Mace's hand got cut off did he: A.) Channel the force to heal his superficial wound and continue fighting or B.)Yell like a littlegirl and get knocked out the window?

I think throwing one 100 ft is a little much, in all the movies never does it show a jedi force picking up a saber 100ft away.

also in this respect, a jedi would know you are after him and would kill you before you had chance to pull the trigger, lol

Not to be too much of a geek about it, but if you're looking for an instance of the saber throw in the Star Wars universe, I believe Luke used it in Heir To The Empire.
