Professor Xavier's Telepathy vs...

I am the OP. I chose the characters deliberately to see what the idea was regarding Xavier's power. I purposely chose characters that had no TP resistance feats on screen basically to see if there might be other reasons these guys might resist.

So far I got willpower and intelligence as potential TP blockers. Not sure I agree with smarts being a deterrent tho

There is only one option, acknowledge that as of yet Thanos has no TP resistance feats and state that the thread can be revisited if movie Thanos shows tp resistance in future movies.

Why would I say I'm wrong, when nobody knows the OP's intention? do you?

Further are you thus claiming that since Thanos' has no TP feats.. that X would TP him?

Not just smarts but extreme intelligence. Don't think Xavier would have problems with guys like Tony Stark or Reed Richards. But Dr. Manhattan is very very different.

Maybe extreme intelligence is the wrong description for it. A better way to describe it is that I believe Dr. Manhattan doesn't think like the normal human being, that his thoughts and processes are very different from ours. That his thought processes are far more advanced than even just a smart human. That's why I think X will have difficulty with him.

What I said was that the only option is to admit that movie Thanos currently has no TP resistance feats, which is true.

Makes sense. Manhattan's mind was pretty unique so maybe intelligence isn't exactly the right way but I get where you're coming from
