Riiiight. I'm fairly certain busting 2 buildings is better than lifting 2 rocks, not matter the speculated state they were in. Theres no indication the buildings were rubbled and they were clearly large and intact enough to be capable of being pushed over and still engulf Malgus in a mountain of rubble in the middle of the street, so calling it pathetic is pretty much just that.

If you had read The Third Lesson you'd note all of the buildings are described as wreckages. I had all of the quotes in this thread but the page crashed, I can't be bothered quoting them again for such a minor point. So I'd just read the story again.

I did know that, but my point still stands. The buildings were clearly intact, otherwise they couldn't have fallen over on Malgus like they did. The buildings on the street are only described as being "burned out" which considering they were made of duracrete and transparisteel I highly doubt they were seriously affected by some fire.

The melting of the beams was an inside job...

Well yeah if it's made out of ****ing brick and wood, rather than space-age duracrete and transparisteel.
Also I reckon you'd still need an unholy amount of force to push that building over, kek.
A) That didn't happen though, it just says the buildings fell on him, it doesn't say anything about chunks. And B) I'm pretty sure that if you pull a building down side-ways it's gonna break up no matter what.
Right, let's review the dictionary definition of "burned-out":
"a vehicle or building destroyed or badly damaged by fire; gutted"
Doesn't matter what it was made of, burned out is burned out, see the image above for a visual depiction. And probably not, a structurally unsound building can be pretty easily toppled by pulling out a few supports, and can even collapse all by itself.
*****, I've been playing Fallout all day, don't step to me on the subject of burnt buildings. It can also just mean spoiled, damaged or, yknow, burned. Looking at the context of the quote, its obvious it was just describing that it had been damaged by fire.
The Jedi specifically makes the motion of pushing them down, he didn't just take out some supports.
