Good points, really.

You didn't have to.
Clearly you didn't believe Force lightning alone could do the trick otherwise you wouldn't have attempted to assert that Dooku's attack was insufficient to hurl Opress backwards and instead was the sole product of Ventress's telekinesis.

You have anything by way of proof beyond personal incredulity?

Application. At times, Dooku simply wanted to punish; other times, he wanted Opress away from him.

To further nail the coffin shut on whether or not Force lightning is capable of telekinetic properties, at 2:50 and 4:35, Palpatine is capable of hurling Kota aside like a ragdoll.
If you intend to argue that an application of telekinesis outside of Force lightning was at play here, it's your burden to prove.

Let's have a moment of silence for all the times DARTH POWER has left us with gems of well-thought out wisdom.

Actually, he has a point. Mom jokes, jabs, and insults are all well and good and enthusiastically encouraged. But accusations of fanboyism are of an entirely different nature; rather than jabs, they teeter on ad hominem attacks simply because you and I disagree about Opress's skills relative to Obi-Wan and Anakin.
I would suggest that you try to dial down those remarks, given the damn near infinite reservoir of ammunition an opponent would have to use against you when it comes to accusations of fanboyism, in which case this entire thread will devolve into both parties accusing the other of being hopelessly biased.
All of this is to say that he who lives in a glass house ought not hurl accusations of fanboyismstones. 😉

That's like the political correctness of KMC, I love the double standard it represents.
If I really felt you were a raging Oppress fanboy, I'd have already visited MemeGenerator.com and celebrated the new diversity in your stance. But I was just messing with you and you totally fell for it, so I win.
Don't get excited bro. I'm actually rather enjoying us debating a new character around here who has live action evidence behind his feats.

Just wanting to keep things in perspective here, brohanski.
There's this one guy who I used to argue with on certain subjects and he loved to throw out insults and jabs but absolutely hated it when I cast them in return, and after a particularly nasty incident between the two of us, I had to get all politically correct in order to avoid hurting his feelings and wouldn't you know that it didn't stop him from acting belligerent? sneer

Yeah, just checking. A long history of antagonism doesn't help us filter each other's posts. But enforcing PC and maturity on KMC is like selling sand buggies to Eskimos.
