After a Sith gets to a certain level he should have Force Lightning....Even Count Dooku had it and Vader>Dooku

Midi Count

How come Vader never used it? Too much bionics?

Well, by the movies I wouldn't have supposed so.


But by the midi link you posted, I'd definitely think otherwise.


Then again.........there are a lot of things I think could have been different considering what each Jedi was capable of.

First off, never cite SuperShadow as a source ever again. :p

And second... you answered your own question. Something "more machine than man" is probably not too fond of the idea of shooting bolts of lightning out of his hands. :p

Padme Amidala = 4,700

Was this count before or after the deed was done? I'd guess it to be higher afterwards. ;)

So where do these figures come from? The Jedi Specsheet Database?

Can't they just extract the midichlorians, or distill them out somehow? I'm thinking that maybe something like Dr. Zoidberg's giant centrifuge would do the trick. Spin, crush bones, (he's dead, Jim) wait until the liquids separate, and extract. Sell the rest as Jedi's Best® Animal Feed.
3.) Profit.

It always cracks me up when I watch the original movies and see Vader turn around quickly only to find his subordinates standing inches away from his face. He must not have had much in the way of peripheral vision while wearing that mask.

The midi count crap just ruined the whole Jedi thing for me. Where did those numbers come from anyway?

Yeah, the whole lightning bolts out of the hands thing is overrated anyway. Monkeys flying out of the butt is where it's at.

I heard Lucas is making that adjustment, giving him force lightning for the hd-dvd & blu-ray releases. ;)
