Aplentus

2 birds with 1 stone? I will use 7 or 8 stones just to make sure. I want those birds dead, dead, dead.

Telekinesis


If you don't recognize, and you better recognize, this is a scene from x-men 2. Magneto extracted metal from that poor guard shmuck. The metal came out of his blood as...dust? And Magneto, using his mutant powers, formed the dust into metal marbles that shot all around breaking up his plastic prison cell. Then, he flattened one of the marbles out and stepped onto it and flew through the air with the other 2 marbles orbiting him. I looked for a picture of him flying over that giant void on a flat marble, but I couldn't find it. Does this mean that, if there is metal involved, Magneto can lift anything? Say there was an immovable object that was in the way, he could just throw some bbs under it and move it out of the way? Weight and size of an object don't matter as long as there is something metal underneath it?

While trying to figure out the limits of Magneto's powers, it occurred to me that similar powers existed in Jedi's. They seemed to be able to lift anything with only the power of their minds. They don't even need marbles. This is a picture of Yoda lifting Luke's X-wing out of the swamp. Yoda should have left it there. "Get this is what you do. A crappy parking spot you have chosen. If the Force you cannot use, a winch or some ropes and pulleys you should invest in."

After thinking this scene through in my head, I remembered something important. Something I am shocked I have only now just remembered. The dialogs in this scene, which I have cut from another internweb site and will paste here for you now:

LUKE: (panting heavily)
I can't. It's too big.

YODA: Size matters not. Look at me. Judge me by my size, do you? Hm? Mmmm.

How did I not remember this before? How did I not laugh about this before? Size matters not? Only a guy with a Yoda would say size matters not.
