Why, isn't not like being force-sensitive makes someone more durable.
Well, that's not the general consensus of the MvF: being a force user makes you loads more durable and stronger.
That wasn't the angle I was taking, though. I was assuming that a regular old human (possibly a clone) in a metal suit that was specifically made to resist force lightning was being employed in The Clone Wars and this metal suit nullified the telekinetic pushing abilities of force lightning, as well.

Really, what are some of their durability feats that show this....because Luke appeared to have regular durability, what with him being injured, operated on and almost dying of hypothermia.
That and weren't most of the Jedi's killed with regular attacks during order 66?

Yes, but to be fair, Palpatine was using the Dark Side of the Force to basically block out or weaken everyone else's power over it.

That's not my argument so I won't make it. I believe Robtard made a pretty decent argument for it. If he actually shows his ass up, maybe he can fill us in.
Edit - Sadako and Jaden, too.

Blaster Bolts seem pretty effective at killing force users and non-force users, alike.

Yet IIRC blaster bolts did very little damage to the walls/euipment they hit during the movies...like say during the capture of Leia or the escape from the DS or Cloud City...Thor on the other hand tanked the Bi-Frost explosion with zero visible damage. same with Iron-man's energy blasts.
Also, Luke getting hit by a couple of slow moving objects in his fight with Vader appeared to hurt...so if he does have above human level durability, it's on the low end.
In Episode 3, Obi-Wan was launched 40+ feet across a room at high speed, slammed into a metal walkway hard enough to dent the metal(probably durasteel), fell about a dozen feet to the floor, then had that walkway(hundred of pounds at least) dropped on his legs. He was ko'd, but aside from that he was perfectly fine.

What they (blaster bolts) do is inconsistent. In some scenes, they leave a small crater in metal. In others, just a burn mark. Some chalk that up to different materials but I believe I have found inconsistencies in that in A New Hope (when they are escaping the Death Star).
I said all that to say this: the Star Wars movies are inconsistent with a lot of shit.
