Why the hell not?



Palpatine wants to turn Harry to the Dark Side.

Harry refuses.

Fight takes place in Palpatine's throne room on the Death Star.

Harry will not use any of the Forbidden spells, since he is pure of heart and refuses to use them. He has his wand.

Palpatine is the Dark Lord of the Sith and will fight dirty with the Dark Side of the Force.

Remember: The Throne Room has a lot of obstacles, debris, and cover.


The Force versus Magic. Who wins?

Rogue Jedi
Well, considering that Harry can produce shield charms, there's no way the Emperor's lightning blasts get to him. Harry waits for the right moment, Petrificus totalus, or one of the many spells Harry knows and can use, he defeats the Emperor.

I dont know why people will not accept that HP magic trumps the force in every possible way. Oncreen feats have proven this time and time again, FFS just watch the Half Blood Prince.

Well, that'd work if spells didn't travel at like....60 mph.

Since they are slow as hell, there's no reason that a force user as adept as Palpitine wouldn't be able to dodge those spells, with ease, no doubt.


On top of that, the fight is over in less than a second with force choke.





The HP wizards are certainly powerful, but the spell casting is the problem: it's too slow. Anyone that is fast can take out HP, with ease. That's HP's weakness. Now, Dumbledore might be more of a challenge...He's rather fast.

If it's one on one, even a padawan could take out Harry Potter.

Rogue Jedi
Takes Harry less than a second to cast a spell, dude. In OOTP, he crucios Bellatrix, and it hits her near instantly.

BruceSkywalker
Palpatine stomps, reason Ian McDiarmid is a much better actor than Radclife will ever be.... besides Harry is a pothead

60 MPH? Watch the OOTP dueling again. Here:

d3DPUywYTt0&feature=related

In particular when Harry is fighting side by side with Sirius against Lucius and the bearded death eater. the spells and jinxes are flying around fast as hell, most of them non verbal, and they are WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY faster than 60 mph. They reach their intended victim almost as fast if not as fast as a force choke would.

At 3:02, Harry crucios Bellatrix, he does so on the run. It took maybe a second for him to cast the spell and have it hit her.

And as for the force choke attack, Harry escaped being choked by the death eater easy enough. If Palpy gets him in a force choke, Harry merely casts a non verbal spell and counters.

This shit's too easy, there should be a rule about SW versus HP threads, HP magic is far too powerful.

Yeah, at mere feet away.


Sorry, man. Spells aren't even remotely as fast as blaster bolts. There's no comparison here.




On top of that, Palps has battle precog. Even if Harry got the drop on Palps, he still dodges without a problem. Harry would have to apparate right behind Palps in order for Palps to not have enough moving room in order to dodge. But, if Harry does that, he ends up in pieces, on the floor.

Hmm.....Palpy is never shown dodging blaster bolts. See what I did there?

Yeah, and Jedi/Sith precog has been proven time and time again as being imperfect.

BTW, Harry is being gimped here. He "knows the spell", the death spell, he knows several dark spells, why cant he use them? Palpy is at full strength and can use everything he has, but Harry cant? Gimp. Oddly enough, despite being gimped, Harry still wins here.

Unless Palpantine kills him right away, in less than a second, Harry will cast a shield charm and deflect everything Palpy throws at him. Palpy never killed anyone that fast, ergo Harry casts the shield charm, deflects Palpys attacks, then Petrificus Totalus's him. Easy cheesy.




I now present this question: Harry casts a shield charm, Palpy cannot attack through the shield charm. What then?

I see what you did. But, he's better than Yoda, and Yoda was seen doing that. He was better than 3 other Jedi Masters, and they were shown doing that.

It's called the transitive property.

Great. So how does this relate to a boy who doesn't compare to the speed and skill of even a beginner Padawan?

And when did Palps battle precog fail?

It still doesn't help, though. The spells don't travel nearly fast enough to matter.

Shield charm, huh? That takes a while to do. How is he supposed to stay in one piece while casting it? How he is supposed to finish it whilst force choke is being employed?

Harry is dead before Harry can finish the encantation.


Also, shield charms work for spells and physical objects. Not the force. Harry is still force choked with ease. big grin

Shizer. Didn't think of that.


So, I guess they have a little bit of knowledge of each, then?


If not, one could assume that Palps would use his battle precog to quickly disarm Harry before he starts going to town nad here's why:

Vader pulled Solol's gun out of his hand, no problem. Not only that, Vader anticpated Solo's shots and blocked them...for teh lulz.

All of the potter fans I know are over 18 cause the first Harry Potter book came out in 2001 and the children would be between 10-13 (when it came out)

That fits well with the fact that his previous two girl friends were late teens early twenties. (still makes them legal, though.)

He'd have to be a fan of twilight to get the current gen. of young female fantasy fanatics.

Precog was shown time and time again in general to be borderline unreliable.

Oh really? Then pretell why didnt the death eaters in THBP, you know, the ones that tried crashing through the shield charm surrounding Hogwarts, try casting spells through the shield charm? Hmm? Because NOTHING gets through a shield charm, dude, nothing, not even the force. there, I just proved without a doubt that the force cannot penetrate a shield charm.

/thread. Right, and Harry just stands there like a doe in headlights? Dont be stupid, even without his wand, Harry has non verbal spells and jinxes.

And, if they have knowledge of each other, Harry is gonna be on the move from the get go. Accio invisibility cloak, confundus charm, petrificus totalus. See, you have to actually KNOW the HP magic spells to realize Harry wins this, and apparently you dont.

Wait, lemmee guess. no cloak for Harry? More gimping, eh? roll eyes (sarcastic)

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand now it's time for the final nail in Palpy's coffin:

The fact that Palpatine can react faster(see: Force-precog and Force-amped personally abilities) with Force-Lightning, Force-choke or simply Force-push Potter so hard into a wall it breaks every prepubescent bone in his body, is why he wins over some kid with a little wand and a few spells.

Also, many HP spells get blocked by shit like walls, doors and tombstones, so Palpatine is likely to block a spell with his sabre, not that it'd get that far into the fight in the first place.

The Felix potion was already made by Slughorn, given to Harry. Again, it is a potion, i.e a weapon, and he should be allowed it here. Just as Palpy should be allowed his force powers, which, BTW, do NOT include force choke. After all, he was never shown using force choke, was he?

Wait, lemmee guess, you are gonna use my argument that ANY force wielder can force choke, right?

OP states: "he has his wand", so that's what he has. Not every single little trinket known in the HP-verse you wish to give him. He's a kid, not a pack-mule, son.

Fair enough, Palpatine, the strongest Sith can't Force-choke. He still wins with the abilities he's shown. Speed, precog, lightning, telekinesis etc.

I see, it's the Emperors throne room, on the Death Star,which implies it is ROTJ Paply, right? Funny, I dont recall seeing that Palpy using a saber.

Also, that Palpy didnt see vader rising up and killing him, did he?

Block a spell with a saber? Dude, dont make me laugh. Wait, he isnt allowed a saber here. Doooooooh. MVF golden rule, babe. And if we are gonna go with blocking, Harry is likely gonna block Palpy's force attacks with his wand, as he is SEEN doing against magic attacks in OOTP. Pwn.

A kid with a wand and a few spells. Wow. You really have no idea how powerful Harry is, man.

ROTJ Palpy was old and crusty, slow as hell, no way he can match Harry in speed. Harry is likely to dodge all Palpy's attacks, or use a shield charm (Which I have proven without a doubt that nothing gets through), bide his time, then use one of the many spells he has knowledge of.

See, you accuse me of HP fanboyism (You always do this when I pwn a debate about HP magic, it's like your escape pod, or crutch), when you should be saying wow, you really know your HP shit.

And? Does it say anywhere that he's gotten ride of it?

If a wall(as seen in the films) can block a spell, why can't a sabre block? It could.

The lightning, maybe. How's he going to block the force-attacks that are intangible? He wouldn't know what's coming. it's not like Palpatine words out what he's ablut to use.

Yeah, a kid with a stick and some spells. You silly fanboy.

Speed, precog, lightning, telekinesis etc. Pack mule? haermm Dude it's a vial that he can slip in his pocket. He can take it beforehand. Or Harry can be on the move, accio it, then take it. The possibiities are endless.

If Palpy force chokes him, Harry can still fight back, he showed that when teh dementor had him in a chokehold in OOTP. So much for Palpys force choke. Which, BTW, he was never shown using, so it cant rightly be used here.

But OK, only a wand, let's gimp Harry here.......Shield charm (Will block Palpys attacks, ALL of them), Petrificus totalus, end battle.
Harry doesnt even need a wand here. Remember the spell he cast on the fat ***** in the Dursleys dining room? She swelled up and floated away, man. Harry said no incantation and had no wand.

Speed? Palpy is SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOW in ROTJ.

Precog? Vader killed him, dude. Palpy didn't sense it.

TK? Blocked by a shield charm.

Etc;? Harry has FAR more etc; than Palpy. In the end, the only attack we can use here for Palpy is force lightning, which Harry will easily block or use a shield charm on.

Robtard
OP states the wand, try to abide the rules. I know you won't and it's only a matter of time until you're arguing that Potter should have all of Hogwarts him.

Force-choke is different than being choked by a hand, son. It's an intangible force. But rightly so, Palpatine can't do it, so it's a moot point.

You're ignoring that Palpatine is faster because of his precog(Vader was/is a Force-user too) and Force-amped abilities, so Potter dies via lightning a second into the fight. /the end.

Was Palpy shown with a saber in ROTJ? Nope, therefore he has no saber here. Might as well give Harry a rail gun.

A wall is a broad object, a saber blade is slim, do the math.

Tell me something, why is Palpy trying to sway Harry to the dark side? Obviously he has knowledge of Harry's powers. Only makes sense that Harry is knowledgeable of Palpys powers. The moment Palpy raises his hands to use force lightning, the shield charm will go up and deflect it.

Try again, try harder, you're making this too easy,

Robtard
LoL, HP always brings out the worse gimping in you.

Yet many of the spells come out as smallish blast of light, these he could block with a sabre. ie if a solid object can block them, a sabre could. In tanglible spells, sabre couldn't.

Anyhow, see above, Potter dies via lightning a second into the fight; no amount of HP fanbpyism can counter this fact. Palpatine is faster than Potter, he has the Force granting him speed and precog, Potter is just an ordinary boy in these regards.

Because Imp wanted a laugh, that's why.

Also, Potter can block magic with his magic, he's never shown blocking the intangible life-force energy that surrounds all things with a spell.

Hey, I'm going with gimped Harry, change your daiper, it's all good.

Intangible inshangible. Harry can still cast spells while being force choked, dude, non verbal spells. But was Palpy ever shown using force choke? Nope. End force choke argument.

Palpy was never shown killing someone that fast, therefore he can't. But as I said before, the shield charm will be cast as soon as Palpy raises his hands, so really Palpy's only attack here is easily deflected.

Tell me, Rob, what powers did Palpy show in ROTJ? Hmm? Force lightning, small bit of TK, that's it, so that's all he can use here. MVF golden rule, babe. he didn't have a lightsaber, and he NEVER used force choke. Never force pushed or pulled. MVF rules, come on, you can do it.

Where in any of the HP movies does Potter use magic without his wand? I dont recall any. What non-verbal spells are you talking about? Polyjuice? Veritas serum? These would not do anything in this fight.

Who said that they have knowledge of each other? I didnt state as such.

Harry has his wand. Palpy has The Dark Side. Period. What difference would his cloak make? Harry is not gimped in any way.

Palpy has Force Lightning. He would have killed Luke had not Vader saved his life. And Luke, in my earnest opinion, would destroy Potter.

Palpatine gives Potter a bit of real lightning to go with the lightning bolt scar on his head.

Potter mainly uses a wand, so Impediment isn't gimping him. You're trying to gimp Palpatine by saying Potter should have everything including the kitchen sink.

You obviously can't read, I said "Palpatine can't force-choke" and I'm going with win via lightning.

Yeah, Potter may last a few seconds or even minutes(doubt it) of being electrified, but he's not casting spells while being fried, son. He'll be too busy screaming and pissing his knickers.

So Palpy is trying to recruit some random teenager to the dark side? Why? He wanted Luke because he knew of Lukes power. Why would he want Harry? Because he knows of Harry's powers. Only fair that Harry know of Palpy and his powers.

The non verbal spell used on the fat ***** at the Dursley's, where she swelled up and floated away.

His cloak would make all the difference in the world. Palpy was never shown onscreen fighting someone invisible, was he? Nope. If he can't see Harry, he can't attack him.

How would ROTJ Luke destroy Harry? Lukes force powers were minimal, he wasnt even a Jedi yet.

No, I am saying that since Harry cannot use every spell he is shown using onscreen he is gimped. Crucio, man, watch the movies.

Good, no force choke then. I was just driving the point home.

Again, how will force lightning get past a shield charm? Still waiting on an answer to that.

I think the Dodgers are playing.

Robtard
Because Palpatine can attack with lighting faster(precog/force-speed) than Potter and cast and say "Protego", you silly dodger.

Also, powerful enough spells can get through that shield-spell, so it's possible it may not block Force-lightning from the most powerful Sith Lord. But that's a moot point, as Potter be lite-up and screaming.

Really? And was Palpy SHOWN attacking with such speed in ROTJ? Nope. Harry will have more than enough time to raise a shield charm. Harry casting Protego will take less time than Palpy executing his force lightning, he was SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW in ROTJ. SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOW. Look it up, it means the opposite of fast.

Powerful enough spells can get through a shield charm? Proof of that? Thought not. If powerful enough spells can get through a shield charm, then why did the Death Eaters have to resort to Vanishing cabinets to infiltrate Hogwarts? There's your proof, there's the puddin'. The proof's in the puddin'.

You have absolutely ZERO evidence that Palpy's attacks will penetrate Harry's shield charm, whereas I have screen feats for the shield charms.

Palpy wont be able to do shit when Harry casts Impedimenta on him. He'll have Palpy dancing a jig and singing show tunes.

Rogue Jedi
BTW, Palpy is the most powerful Sith, no question, but Harry took on and Voldemort many times, went toe to toe with him, and finally defeated him, and Voldy would make mincemeat of Palpy.

When Palpatine wants to attack with lightning, it takes him a second to do so, both in the ROTJ and ROTS. He doesn't have to wave a wand and utter a spell. He also has his Force-speed and precog helping him on-top of that as an added(but not needed) plus.

The three curses can get through a shield charm, as per HP-Wiki. But it's a moot point, Potter be fried before he can raise any defense.

Again, Palpatine can attack faster with lightning than Potter can cast a spell, keep ignoring this.

Mhm, and none of those curses are in Palpy's arsenal. Nice try though. BTW nothing showed up on your link, but since Palpy has no cursing power, my point stands.

No, he is slow as hell in ROTJ, Harry is much faster casting Protego than Palpy is with force lightning, not to mention that Harry can likely block the attack, as he did the magical attacks in OOTP.

Stop with the force speed, he displayed no force speed in ROTJ, you're reaching now.

Nice dodge, my point was that powerful enough spells can get through the shield(you said nothing could) and Palpatine is one powerful guy.

No, it takes him a second to attack with lightning, when he wants to attack with it.

He had it in ROTS, when he attacked Mace and the other four Jedi. So he has force-speed and agility. Let me guess, it went away?

Anyhow, Potter dies via lightning before he can fully cast a spell, you have nothing to counter this. He maybe gets to say "Prot...", then he's fried.

Yes, but the force and HP magic are two entirely different things. If certain magic can get past a shield charm, why didn't Voldemort simply blast away the shield charms surrounding Hogwarts in THBP? Hmm? Hey, in GOF, Harry went toe to toe with Voldy. Remember when their wands were locked, neither able to seize the advantage? Lookie, at 1:47, Harry blocks Voldemorts Avada Kedavra.

He utters Expelliarmus, then MAYBE a half second later, his red beam is locked with Voldemorts green one. So much for the speed argument. Harry is officially faster with his spells than Palpy is with force lightning in ROTJ, there is no questioning this.

How fast was he with his force lightning attacks in ROTJ? slooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow......thats what we go by, his ROTJ feats.

1. The Death Star was in all 3 OT films. The Death Star has a throne room. I implied nothing at all. I stated exactly what I meant. Case closed, Sherlock.

2, You have proven nothing wrong except you have a serious problem with Harry Potter stroking.

3. I have, in no way gimped Harry Potter. He has his wand, and Palpy has The Force. Accept it. You can do it.

4. I haven't moved any goal posts, as you so immaturely put it. You lack tact when trying to have a fun debate.

5. There have been no screen feats that have "proven anything" that justifies your claim. That is why we are having a debate over it. Nothing is being ignored.

6. I am breaking no rules. You're just butthurt.

HP magic has spells that can end ones life in a heartbeat, there are no such force powers in the SW universe. HP wizards can apparate to anywhere in the world, SW force users cannot. It's quite obvious that HP magic is far more powerful than the force.

Having said that, what kept the death eaters and Voldemort out of Hogwarts while Hogwarts was protected by a shield charm?

Nemesis X
In the movies, Harry kept getting owned by dark wizards and only manages to defeat some only when he had backup so what makes you guys think he can defeat the dark lord of the sith? While chanting some long spell, Harry either gets a taste of force lightning or gets decapitated by Palpatine's lightsaber.

Since Palpatine is a man with brains, he'll use the force to pull the wand away from Harry so the boy who lived will be the boy who got owned.

He used crucio and sectumsempra. We already tried the character morality thing here, it didnt float, it was rejected like a bad kidney. Point is Harry knows the spells and you took that away from him. It's the same as taking away Palpys force lightning.

Because, the THRONE ROOM was shown ONLY in ROTJ.

I watched the movies, and studied the spells used in the movies. Simple.

The force does not exist in the Harry Potter Universe. It is certainly not magic, and it definitely isn't a physical/tangible items like flesh and bone.

You've done nothing to prove that it stands up to the force.


None of that matters, though, as Harry Potter is dead before he can even finish uttering an incantation.

Doesn't really matter, all he needs is Force-lightning and he was shown to produce it instantly in either ROTS and ROTJ, he doesn't need to yell out words and wave a stick around for it to happen. So he wins, via lightning.

It's ridiculous to say "Palpatine can't do this or that" in regards to ROTJ, when the same character was shown doing something that is supposed to happen earlier. Like he somehow lost his Force-speed. But some (ie RJ) have to ride the gimp horse to try and angle a win.

After all, Harry should have access to all his spells and potions he is shown using in the movies, yes?

So, Harry is going to have time to pull out the vile, drink it, and use his super luck to someone defeat Palps?

You do know how absurd that is, right? Harry doesn't have time to do anything except get stabbed, force choked, force pushed so hard his body splatters on the wall behind him, or possibly fall prey to a mind trick.

On top of this, you do know that the Felix Felicis portion works similar to how force powers do...namely mind tricks, and getting lucky against say, a surprise attack. Cept, the force users aren't getting lucky, they are fully anticipating what is happening and simply avoiding and not getting lucky.

You do know that the the potion also has limitations, right? The limitations were mentioned and hinted at in the book. For example, you would not be able to use the luck to ask Dumbledore to kill himself, you couldn't attempt to raise someone from the dead and get lucky enough to succeed, you couldn't fall off of a cliff and survive. But, what it DOES do is increase the dice roll on probabilities such as, walking through a busy street and just happening to walk at the time when your path would avoid every car (maybe), ask a person a question that that person may sometimes answer or not answer (depending) and succeed in getting an answer out of that person (similar to a mind trick, but not quite as a mind trick would be more absolute against most people), etc.



That just entertains the incorrect idea that the luck potion will even be able to be drunk by Harry Potter without ending up in pieces. That simply wouldn't happen. Why would the emperor just stand there and watch Harry Potter go to town casting charms, drinking luck potions, etc?

1. In ANH, we are never shown a throne room. See number three.

2. In ESB, there is no Death Star.

And no, Palpy is never shown doing anything more than throwing force lightning in ROTJ, he had a walking stick FFS, did he have that in ROTS? Nope. Why did he have a walking stick? Because he was old, crusty and slow.

See, there's your flaw(yet again), as much as you want to gimp Palpatine and boost Potter with cloaks, vials, brooms and butt-plugs(none of which he has here), old, slow and crusty Palpatine is still able to instantly release force-lightning in ROTJ, this is shown. He doesn't need to mouth a spell and flick some wand about, he wants lightning; it springs forth instantly.

So again, you have nothing except avoiding the fact that Palpatine can kill or incapacitate Potter via lightning, before Potter can do a thing of value. That and giving Potter everything under the kitchen sink, which I'm fine with, as he'll be fried before he can cover himself with a cloak, drink a potion or do some amazing feat of dodge/diving into rubble, as you imagine.

Which Potter is this? As how you're gimping Palpatine, Potter didn't use every spell in each film, so he'd only have movie-specific spells. See this is why your debating is so f'ing silly, so one-sided and biased.

No, no, no, RJ insist on gimping Palpatine to only, and I mean only using force-lightning, every power he had shown or was implied before ROTJ doesn't count, while Potter gets any ability and item he's ever shown and hasn't shown in all the movies.

Yet still, Palpatine fries him before he can blink, okay, he could probably blink once before the electrocution.

He doesn't need to mouth a spell and flick some wand about, he wants lightning; it springs forth instantly.

So again, you have nothing except avoiding the fact that Palpatine can kill or incapacitate Potter vis lightning, before Potter can do a thing of value. That and giving Potter everything under the kitchen sink.

If they have some knowledge of each other, Harry will be quite aware Palpy will use force lightning when Harry tells him to **** off. You think he is gonna stand there and wait for Palpy to use it? Harry's not an idiot, dude. Likely he will run for cover before the battle even starts.

Run for cover, cast a shield charm, deflect the force lightning, then counter with the spell of his choice.

Here:

It takes a full second for Sidious's force lightning to reach Yoda, that's more than enough time for Harry to cast a shield charm and deflect it, or even block it with his wand.

Harry refuses.

Fight takes place in Palpatine's throne room on the Death Star.

Harry will not use any of the Forbidden spells, since he is pure of heart and refuses to use them. He has his wand.

Palpatine is the Dark Lord of the Sith and will fight dirty with the Dark Side of the Force.

Remember: The Throne Room has a lot of obstacles, debris, and cover.


The Force versus Magic. Who wins?

Now, like I said from the very start, Potter will be fried before he can raise a shield (debatable if it will stop Force-lighting), pull over a hoodie, drink a potion or run for cover, Force-lightning is simply faster, a lot faster. Just accept this.

This thread is so full of holes it's like swiss cheese. Few questions:

How was Harry captured? Why does Harry have his wand? Why didn't whoever captured Harry disarm him? HOW did Harry get his wand back? First thing that happened to Luke when captured, they took away his lightsaber.

Also, it's even more debatable if the force can penetrate a shield charm. For the millionth time, why did the death eaters have to resort to a vanishing cabinet to infiltrate Howgarts? Because they could not penetrate the shield charm.

Lets get real, Harry will have a chance to attain cover as Palpy drones on and on about joining the dark side.

And there is always the chance that Harry can block the lightning with his wand. If he is going to be standing there like a dumbass, like you insist he will be, surely his wand will be raised. No way for you to prove he cannot do this, so dont even try.

Likely, as Palpy drones on and on, Harry blows him up like the fat ***** at the Dursleys (non verbal spell FTW.) Palpy floats away, wheezing like a gas laden pie eating champion.

Don't know which movies, as they all run together for me. But Potter has stood by like an imbecilic chimp while shit happened around him and to him. He isn't this battle-hardened, reacts on predatory instincts Special Forces operative you imagine he is. He's a boy, dude. A BOY with a wand, he's not SAS.

The only chance he has surviving an encounter with the Sith Lord, is if he cast 'fellatio' on Palpatine and does it with supreme expertise. Maybe.

Rogue Jedi
Look, there's no way I can prove that HP magic trumps the force, and there's no way for you to prove vice versa. We are forced to place them on even ground, one no stronger than the other.

Having said that, when Palpy produces force lightning, Harry simply blocks it with his wand. You know, the way he blocked spells with his wand in OOTP and THBP. Same way Obi Wan blocked Dooku's in AOTC.

Harry will have his wand at the ready, Palpy will produce force lightning, Harry blocks it. Question is, how will Palpy block Harry's attacks? Because despite the fact the Palpy is Palpy, Harry will, sooner or later, have a chance to attack.

Or he could block, and at the same time use the non verbal spell he used in POA, on the lady in the Dursleys house. No wand required there either.

Robtard
I think magic is generally stronger and more versatile than the Force.

But Potter isn't faster than Palpatine, Potter isn't faster than lightning, so Potter isn't blocking. Potter be dead.

Because Palpatine the complete idiot will allow this beforehand, just cuz. Harry goe to grab his little twig while Palpatine is talking, he's gets to ride the lightning or the wand is force-pulled away and snapped. Just stop, dude.

Also, you're guessing that Potter's wand will be able to block Force-lightning, which isn't a single stream of lightning, it's many and it jumps around everywhere. So it may block one bolt, the others come around and fry him. This is of course going with your scenario that Palpatine is a complete moron; even moron-Palp can beat Potter.

Obi Wan's blade easily blocked Dooku's force lightning and it isnt much wider than Harrys wand. There's your proof.

Again, Potter having weapon in hand and Palpatine just allowing it relies on Palpatine being a moron; as seen in the films, he's extremely smart and always 2 steps ahead. So no, you can't decide he's a moron now.

Again, Potter would babble out "Acc..." and then the lightning would hit him. Lightning comes faster than babbling out spells.

Obi wan is also a Jedi with a mastery of The Force, the same shit Force-lightning is made from. Potter isn't, doesn't, no amount of Harry Potter fanboyism will change this.

If Palpy force pulls away the wand, Harry accios it back, Palpy will have to stop force pulling and then force lightning. He cant do both, Harry's wand will be back in his hand in time to block. When he accio'd the goblet in GOF, it was almost instantly in his hand.

because the same way the lightning is aimed with the force, it can be attracted by the force. that should be a simple concept to piece together. what you have is an observation. "The lighting arcs in different directions but meets at the lightsaber" is not an explaination of anything nor is it a fact. its an observation of what is happening not why or what is making it do so.

rots novelization depicts that the combatants (Sidious and Yoda) were moving faster than the human eye could depict.

Sidious instantly moves in and gets harry potter.

Harry potter, as far as I can tell, must always say something when he uses spells; thus, he has a wait time of .5-1 second before his spell takes effect. Even then, missile spells seem to travel a little slower than LIGHTNING.

Sidious's electricity will force him to be unable to perform the graceful movements required with his wand due to electric shock and fry him to death. It also happens precognitive and as fast as lightning.

He had just as much if not more of a warning and time that Obi Wan did. That's about as much warning as harry has. Harry's wand is also, wood or pheonix crap or something like that. His wand is going to be superconductive, if it's wood, and organic material thus as conductive as human flesh if its pheonix crap.

Energy isn't why it attracts and why the light saber stops anything. If you want to refuse the novelization (which is canon in the SWmovieforum) as an example, use the fact that the lightning was not attracted to any of the power sources onscreen in episode six. Instead it went straight towards luke's body, not to the metal around him or any obviously more conductive material. It's obviously guided by the force.

Also, if you want to get scientific, the only way that the lightsaber could naturally attract any sort of charge is if It was positively charged and palpatine was negatively charging his hands, or vise versa. http://www.myuniversalfacts.com/2006/03/what-causes-lightning.html

Since we can safely assume that Mr. Potter cannot change the polarity of his stick without hermione to tell him what spell it is, (what with fighing voldemort all day and never studying) and it is probably NOT CHARGED WITH ELECTRICITY AT ALL (Electricity=/=magic no matter what the protestants say), we can safely assume that the electricity is directed with the force, NOT because of any scientific drawing of lightning to the impossible beam weapon. That and Light has no significant electric charge.

We have a precognitive, lightning fast supervillain, who can conjure up 1.21 jiggawatts in a nanosecond, much less enough TELEKENESIS to crush potter's lungs and skull within breathless seconds, vs Harry potter, a young lad with the ability to say his prayers to some magic force with exceptional results. I don't think harry potter's getting a "Wingardum Leviousa" off.
