Also to anyone saying that the feats in TFU are exaggerated, thats a lame excuse. How is it more exaggerated than people blowing up stars or ripping up star fleets? But in any case, the feats are canon. The end.
Since the game developers say so on TFU website, under Media Gallery > web docs > "The TFU Experience" (I think).
That's when.

Meh I thought he was a great character. He actually had the balls to storm in to the Death Star and fight Vader and the Emperor.....unlike Obi wan and Yoda who prefer to sit on their ass.
Very good point... I mean, would we pick Galen>ROTS Obi-Wan AND ROTS Yoda? I think not. but he did come very close to destroying both of their enemies. Question: Why didn't Organa contact Yoda or Obi-Wan? another question: i was under the impression that Shaak Ti died on the invisible hand, execution style to General Grievous?
And finally: Don't Forget, Marek pulls down a sky bridge with the force, to me, THAT'S more impressive than stopping a star destroyer.... Second, he powered a Capital-class ship, using only the force from his own body. he also killed hundreds of droids at once with one massive attack. Each of those feats surpass the SD incident.
Finally, and i hate to say i told you so: but remember when the trailer first came out of the secret apprentice and the SD? and everybody was all OMG, he pulled a star destroyer out of Orbit and crashed it on the ground!!!!! and i said, and you could find it if you went and looked for it:
"hold on, mebbe he didn't pull it down, there is no evidence of that, maybe its crashing and he just stopped it from crushing him"
yeah, i said that... i don't feel half bad about that prediction now
😄 😄 😄

Exactly what I was thinking.Oh ya and Starkiller DID pull the Star Destroyer out of the sky with the Force. Not manipulating its controls. If you have read the book you will know this.
he didn't pull it down. it was crashing, gravity pulled it down. He directed where it landed. I was wrong about the controls. (i have read the book)
i was under the impression that Shaak Ti died on the invisible hand, execution style to General Grievous?
This was in the deleted scenes of Revenge of the Sith, but not in the novelization or in the Actual Movie. Ergo, it is not considered cannon. It does, however, illustrate the power that GL imagines Grievous to hold: being considered able to take out a High Council member without throwing the power balance out of whack speaks strongly to the General's prowess.
And again, he couldn't even stop it fully once it hit the ground.
And the U.S couldn't even occupy the entire Mid-East. A star destroyer would have unspeakable inertia, bringing it to a complete halt would require massive amounts of energy. The feat of bringing it down is impressive in its own right, when the power of a capital ship's engines are taken into effect. The Republic Assault ship's specs. say that it's reactors could put out 2*10^23 wats, pitting the power of cold fusion/future tech. vs. one man's magical organelles. Darn straight its impressive!

[/B]I know it's impressive. I think it's cool that he couldn't stop the damn thing.
i cant wait for isreal to but that dick Ahmadidijad (i dont care if i mispelled it, he doesn't deserve proper grammer!) in his place and turn Iran into a nuclear waste land! i can just see it! Him, telling the world that Iran is going to wipe Isreal off the map for the millionth time when suddenly, out of f*cking no where! a jet fighter flies overhead and kills every last mother f*cker there!
On topic, he MOVED A STAR DESTROYER!!!! thats increadible! it is millions of tons and he was able to move it! No one ever did anythig like that before!
Your first paragraph displays a startling disregard for the lives of the citizens of that nation who have done nothing to you or to any resident of another country. There is no threat that justifies the use of nuclear weapons, as they are more costly in terms of civilian lives than even the tactics of the terrorists in al Quieda (sp?).
On topic: Woot!onetwothreefour!!? he moved teh space ship
I wouldn't mind it if Ahmadina-cockhead was blown up some day, preferably in his "Jews are evil! Muslims are good! Praise Allah! Burn the blasphemous fools!" speech number 111110000111, but nuclear bombs aren't necessary. Killing all the people in Iran will only cause people to hate Israel more, and it will eventually resort to a full-blown nuclear war. All you need is an H-Bomb or two to destroy Israel; it's a very small country. Blowing up Iran isn't the smartest idea.
To me, nukes will forever be overkill. He is not a very stable leader, but the biggest problem is that there are people who think like him. As long as religion can be used to divide and provide scapegoats there will be conflict. The problem isn't even Islam, it is the extremists who have hijacked it for their own purposes. Fundies of any creed pose a threat to sane people everywhere, even those of their own faith. He is part of the problem, but the bigger picture is that his way of thinking is acceptable to so many.

It was falling...He slows its momentum down enough for it to not skid into him and crush him flat, with the assistance of gravity, wind resistance, and friction.
Really, half the wars in history, in addition to a majority of oppression and persecution of people was because of religion, which is a person's interpretation of what is written in a f*cking book. I find it ironic, funny, and sad how millions of people have died because of some random statement in some random page of some random book. I've heard that the whole 'Jihad' thing- which is basically why people blow themselves up in a bus- is actually a bullshit interpretation of a quote (or an intentionally bullshit interpretation?).
I hate organized religion because of stupid, nazi-esque extremists like Ahmadinejad, Bin Laden, etc, but do not be fooled- they exist in Christianity and Judaism, as well. Take the Catholic League, for example. A bunch of fanatics who try to ban every single 'offensive', 'sinful', or 'corrupting' in the media. From South Park to Spongebob. Yeah, it's pathetic.
And yeah, nukes will always be overkill because there are always innocents everywhere; even in Nazi Germany, there were people who disagreed with the regime and actually helped out Jews. I have no qualms about killing fanatical people who commit crimes against humanity, but I've always thought that killing 'innocent bystanders' sucks.
