Ah I see. Impressive no doubt, still don't see it being that effective against Thor for a few reasons:1. Dooku still had to throw Obi. He didn't just keep him elevated indefinitely.
2. Dooku didn't attack Obi while he was afloat. It should have been so easy to simply hack and slash Obiwan to bits while he was afloat. But the fact that Dooku had to throw him away shows that maybe they are incapable of attacking the same person they are levitating?
3. Dooku did kick Anakin, but it seemed it was done at the same time he lifted Obi wan and didn't move from his spot. Does that mean that when they try to levitate something they have a hard time moving from their current post?
In any case, the Jedi's don't seem to have any defense against TK either. It's more a case of who gets who first. And while Obi wan is being force choked he seems to have no trouble moving the rest of his body. So a hammer throw from Thor at this point isn't out of the question.
I don't think anyone has argued that a Force user could hold someone forever.
CIS/PIS, to think that Dooku couldn't have used his sabre went he's seen attacking someone else during the hold is a silly argument.
We do see Jedi having defense against Force-TK by employing Force-TK themselves, the Obi Vs Anakin-Vader fight at the end of EP3.
