aggresion and Sidious

Why didn't Sidi used his 'choke' to kill the 'stunted slimeball'?? So he seemed more powerfull and the others would obey him??

too far away probably, Vader was always close to his victims.

A-HA!!!

The script for TPM does indeed have Sidious choking that guy, even adding a line about how 'only a Sith can reach this far...', as proof as to why they should be more afraid of HIM than the Jedi!

It appeared to get cut, though.

However, this seems such a specific question to ask that I can only assume that Yerssot read that part of the script on the Insider's CD and posted here about it...

They should have kept that part in the script. That would be another thing to link Palpy PT to Palpy-Vader OT.

Perhaps Lucas is trying to distance the two characters

Terribly sorry Ush, but in Belgium there is no Insiders guide, and I don't think there is one in Holland, maybe in England orso.

The reason I posted here was that I thought that Sidi was just paying the TF to do the job, I mean: he doesn't menace them for doing the job AND you know that 'the Emperor is not so forgiving as I am (=> I=Vader) and Vader almost choked a guy for laughing at the Force

Ah. Well, in that case, it was a perceptive question, Yerssot...

It's nothing Ush,

anyway, the distance doesn't matter. The Force is everywhere, remember. They just need to direct the Force that surrounds the being they want to punish/kill

Actually, that part of the script made it very clear that distance WAS an issue. And that only trhe Sith could reach so far.

Vader got Ozzel and they were on different parts of his Star Destroyer, potentially 3 miles, or something like that (5 kilometers for the Brits).

5 kilometres for the Brits? HUH? We use MILES! Why the heck do you think YOU use miles?

I still don't think that distance is a problem.
Choking a guy near him, a guy that is 5 km away, lifting an X-wing, blurring the minds of the weak-ones,...
I don't think that all will fail when you are far away, the Force is everywhere!

The Force may be everywhere, but a person's ability to manipulate it is not.

??
The ability is only in the person, if he can comand it, the Force would do the rest

I think it is very safe to assume, Yerssot, that Jedi can not influence things galaxy-wide. Only those in their vicinity.

Even if they know where they are exactly and they have a live hologram in front of them??

Yes indeedy. Otherwise we would be getting to a ridiculous power level; the sort of thing that KJ hates.

Why do you think that? It's still possible I think

Why, thank you! 🙂

There is no indications that it is impossible...
