The scale/mass of that Star Destroyer was literally hundreds of times greater than anything Phoenix did.Also, it was trying to escape Galen Marek, with Thrusters, it wasn't already coming down. That would put it at an even greater force.
Also, Phoenix seemed to struggle with the lake, NC, and the X-Jet. The mass, while quite huge, was not on scale with a Star Destroyer trying to use thrusters to escape Galen Marek.
Futile discussion because it is an EU character. 🙁
Okay, you are right, I was thinking about the first instance in which he took down a Star Destroyer. The second time, the ship wasn't coming down. But it took him a really long time and great effort to do it, so I would say he was approaching his limit.
I don't think you read my previous post. Size isn't the definitive measure of TK power. TK power is more accurately measured by being to overcome forces. For Galen, that would be the thrusters like you said (although to me it doesn't look like the thrusters were used to escape, the ship was still facing Galen). DP ripped molecules apart instantly and effortlessly. She could pretty much literally destroy every thing around her without effort. Galen can't do that.
Also in the alternative scenes she was shown to transmute matter, meaning she can over come nuclear forces and rearrange matter at the subatomic level. Only the most powerful TK users can do that, i.e DP, Dr Manhattan. As far as I can tell its the ultimate level of TK - to be able to rearrange matter as you see fit. If DP was in the same position as Galen, she'd just rip the ship up at the molecular level, she has proven she can do this effortlessly. What is unknown, is how quickly she'd be able to do it to something that big. That would be pure speculation. But she certainly wouldn't do any worse than Galen.
Struggling at the lake and X-jet was Jean Grey. DP was surfacing, but it was not DP yet. At the start of X3, DP pretty much lifted up the mass of water of the whole lake. When Wolvie and Storm arrived there was no water left. She also lifted the whole Alcatraz prison along with large masses of water around the island. She does all of these feats pretty casually.
Lets just say if Movie DP fought with Galen, he'd die instantly.
