Lightsaber versus Adamantium....

Started by Darth Martin7 pages

That's EU. Not movie canon.

Although I will say this. If a gun was pointed to my head and I had to choose, I'd say that adamantium would fail to cut a lightsaber. While it's a physical metal, a lightsaber is a beam of energy.

IMO it's pretty silly to ASSUME that a lightsaber can cut through adamantium.

As Robtard pointed out, Adamantium is said to be "virtually indestructible" that's all we know.

Has it ever been said in the SW movies that lightsabres can cut through "Virtually everything" ? Nah.

Look I love SW (the orginals) as much as the next guy, but c'mon.

It was never stated, but it was heavily implied, since absolutely nothing in any of the 6 movies stood up to a saber except the Phrik blades, which are naturally resistant to the energy field the lightsaber produces.

Adamantium was never implied to be "Virtually indestructible" is was STATED to be "Virtually indestructible".

Stop making assumptions.

And "Virtually" is far from "Literally."

my penis laughs at me for posting in this thread but i really really have to because the nerd inside just can't resist. Marvel makes shit up even more than George Lucas does as well but at least Marvel tries to back their bull shit up with yearly encylopedias documenting their bull crap. Both sides create incredible characters who often seem to forget about their abilities but Adamantium is always indestructible. I'm going to bet that a lightsaber won't be able to cut through adamantium but it's probably going to weaken it.

Well at least Adamantium has something concrete STATED about its durability.

The capabilities of a lightsabre is vague. Point out where it was explicitly stated that lightsabres can cut through "Virtually anything", then I'll call it a draw.

Until then ; a lightsabre's blade is only as strong as the fanboyism that exagerates its capabilities.

what? 😐

^ I was wondering about that myself.

Yeah, so virtually indestructible that a bullet of the same stuff put a hole in Logan's skull. If it was virtually indestructible, then the bullet wouldn't have put a hole in his skull, and it wouldn't have been messed up. It would have just bounced off or something.

Imo the Lightsaber cuts right through it.

Why

Easily, how did they get that metal into Wolverine?

They heated it up until it was liquid. Now, I'm not massive on X-men or Star Wars but last i checked Light sabers burns right through blast resistant doors somewhat easily. So I have my doubts the adamantium would be a problem.

Note: terms like "Virtually indestructable" mean nothing to me, it's either indestructable or destructable. "Virtually indestructable" means resistant by our standards but destructable. Last i checked nothing we have would come close to resisting a Lightsaber, so adamantium being "Virtually indestructable" by that standard is meaningless.

Yeah... and lightsabres bounce off each other and can not cut through Phrik.

THINK.

Well, in X2, Stryker states that once adamantium cools, it is virtually indestructible.

canon wise, energy fields seem to be the only thing that can stop lightsabers, so yes, i'd say they can cut through adamantium.

That's BS even the SW fanboys know this. Cortosis and Phrik are proof that you're wrong.

Besides, this is the MOVIE VS forum no EU bullshit allowed here.

Contradictory.

Unless it is before acquired, in a constant liquid state (unlikely) we know this cannot be the complete truth.

Seems to me he melted it down then shaped it in the same process as placing it.

Emphasis on the melted.

Yeah... and lightsabers are blades of pure energy, which is why they don't cut each other. As for Phrik, I've already explained that it is naturally resistant to the lightsabers specific wavelength of energy.

THINK.

And like I said, if it's indestructible, a bullet of the same stuff shouldn't go through it.

As for Cortosis and Phrik, I don't see what you fail to realize about them being naturally resistant to a lightsaber. But I forgot to mention, they eventually get destroyed by lightsabers.

Please tell me where in the movies this is explicitly stated. I'm dying to know.

I know, that's where it gets all clustered for me.
