Luke once breathed pure cooling gas and survived it because the force made him to survive this. And this again was JA time Luke. And yes he CAN keep the iron in his blood easier than "normal" persons because he:
a)
Would feel through the force that somebody tries to rip it off
b)
Can keep it in his blood through the force.
Luke is human. Magneto can rip the iron from HUMANS. It doesn't matter whether or not Luke is an overpowered Force user. Blood is blood. Iron is iron. And Magneto can manipulate energy, as well. So who's to say he can't shrug off that little instakill?
Instakill = no reaction time = how should Magneto stop this ? And where does it say that it is part of the energetical spectrum that Magneto can control ? Luke could also throw a skyscraper made of plastic on Magneto and in this case Magneto is screwed or what ?
And they're fighting on Coruscant...Where did people get here that the buildings on Coruscant are made out of metal ? As far as I've seen it there is stone, plastic and glass - things that don't have very much metal in them. So NJO Luke snaps his fingers and you have a few hundred tons of glass, plastic and stone falling down on Magneto. Ups...I guess he's screwed.
AHA, but you miss the point, there are no skyscrapers made of plastic, nor is there a piece of nonmetal meterial with the same proportions. also don't start with the force lighting thing, magneto could counter that simply by makeing the magnetic fieald around himself the same polerization as the lightning and deflect it
