1. Jedi do not manipulate the force on a regular basis. example: obi wan should have been able to force push griveous backward and easily kill him, but didn't.2. Jedi's control over their bodies does not match magneto's ability to control the iron in their blood. Mags moves objects without breaking a sweat that jedi could not hope move. example: asteroid M (millions of tons)
3. Mind control is worthless because a. Mags is too strong minded and b. Mag's helmet.
4. Mags can fly; jedi cannot fly.
5. Mags is probably more intelligent than any jedi alive since his intelligence seems to reach almost an all-knowing level toward the end of his life.
6. Jedi or sith do not readily destroy planets w/ their minds. If they could do this Sidious would not have spent years building and rebuilding the Death Star.
7. Mags can survive in space. He can simply blast himself to space then destroy whatever planet the jedi are on.
1. Jedi CAN manipulate the Force on a regular basis. Obi-Wan's fight proves nothing except bad plot-induced writing.
2. Iron in blood? Sure, but for thousands of people that are simultaneously trying to kill him. He might kill a dozen or so before he's overwhelmed with other concerns.
3. They don't need mind control.
4. Jedi can levitate, and they don't need to touch Mags to hurt him with teh Force.
5. More intelligent? Jedi (and the SW universe in general) uses technology that Mags couldn't dream of. Intelligence wouldn't have much to do with the outcome of the fight, unless Mags uses his intelligence to run away.
6. No, Jedi don't single-handedly destroy planets. But Exar Kun did (a former Sith Lord). And thousands could if they wanted to (probably...but even if they couldn't, they're fighting Magneto...not a planet).
7. Destroy a planet from space? Hehe...not likely. Even the great magneto isn't that powerful. And while he's trying to fly up, thousands of competent (and sometimes very powerful) telekinetics will be pulling him back down. He isn't getting to space.
...and with the lightsabers, it's Magneto's magnetic powers vs. Jedi's telekinesis. Mags might beat a dozen or so in the lightsaber tug of war, but he'll have too much to worry about to simply rape the Jedi.
For about the 10th time...this is ALL Jedi! Even if you're a Mags fan and you don't like SW, show some respect. A dozen or so Jedi could give him a decent fight (maybe not win...just a fight). This is overkill.
