Please do a part 2 of this video. And add in some Ashoka moments and feats too. Because they were pretty epic.

[@ctod593]

kanan's final scene and vader stopping the transport in kenobi, both great moments, as well as a slightly off topic one: "I am one with the force, the force is with me"

[@PlatinumDSKing]

There was two other feats from Vader not mentioned here, when he stopped and ripped that ship apart in the Kenobi show and hurld those projectiles at Luke in ESB.

[@MasterWolf1213]

Number one is Vader holding a ship. That was the coolest thing ever.

[@imasexydinosaur2656]

This 💯 Tge fact that it's not on the list is blasphemous

Ahsoka did that in the last episode of Clone Wars.

Leia’s Force sensitivity was teased in Empire Strikes Back on Bespin when Luke is calling out to her while he was hanging under Cloud City.

[@sithra74]

Anikin and Obi-wan force pushing against each other and both flying backwards was pretty good too.

[@madelinegarber7860]

Honorable mention to Grogu protecting Bo and Din from the exploding base in Manfdo s3 while they try to protect him. The music and the shere power he displays give me chills every time.

[@SamuelMcAlpin-ft3uu]

No Luke summoning his lightsaber in the wampa cave on Hoth? Shame.

I can't believe nobody's talking about when Anakin used the Force to subdue the Son and the Daughter in the Clone Wars. They were literal gods! Honestly, I thought that would've been number 1 and the Death Star thing would've been an honorable mention.

[@t.cooper1738]

If we count video games, then there's a few more moments worth mentioning: - When Galen Marek (Starkiller) Pulls down a Star destroyer from the sky. - When Kyle Katarn interrogates Tavion on Bespin. - When Cal Kestis defeats the 9th sister. - When Cere Junda almost kills Darth Vader on Nur. All of them are epic.

Luke saving the day in mandalorian should have been on here. Seeing prime luke destroy the dark troopers like they were nothing was amazing. That’s literally all we wanted for so long was to see the hero we watched in the og trilogy being a badass in his prime. Brings a tear to my eye. Instead we’ve gotten all these bunk trilogy sequels.

[@sirfriendzone1228]

In one scene, Dave Filoni gave an entire generation back the Star Wars we thought we'd lost forever.

[@louismnadeau5015]

So satisfying, still think the dark trooper crushing was more a dark force ability, but so satisfying that it’s after all very okay

[@BigDexMedia]

Kylo Ren using his telekinesis to freeze an energy projecitle in place will always be so cool to me. I knew it was possible but never seen it; I knew Darth Vader deflected blaster bolts but to outright stop one is very impressive too

[@CallMeGoodTimes]

You got me with the pear joke. 😂😂😂

[@sethgile8584]

I would like also mentioned in Phantom Menace square Obi-Wan was able to jump. How does the pit grab his masters light saber and slice Maul half within seconds.

[@demoui7]

1. Anakin subduing both the Son and the Daughter who are the embodiments of the Dark & Light side of the Force respectively. 2 -10. Pick any time the Son and Daughter do anything in the Mortis arc

[@t-siskproductions5367]

Thank you! I can't believe nobody else is talking about this.

[@oddjob914]

I like the ROTS scene where Yoda force threw the senate hover chairs at Sidious in their duel. I hated the senate scenes so it was satisfying seeing it get all destroyed.

[@simbeau2012]

Kanan’s sacrifice in Star Wars Rebels should be on this list. Also Ahsoka finding the inhibitor chip in Rex by using the force in the clone wars

[@henryschaack7936]

I like the scene in the bar with obi-wan and death sticks.

[@BlazerK1914]

To me, in terms of Force moments, Obi Wan hurling boulders at Vader is the most awesome moment I’ve ever seen.

[@SirsasthNigam.]

@@SirsasthNigam. Watchmojo’s opinion, but in mine, it’s #1.

[@madelinegarber7860]

Yeah that was OP as hell. I personally thought that duel was great. So epic. I don’t understand the hate.

[@jedileader0174]

​@@madelinegarber7860I think the hate is people believe that the scene ruins the continuity of Vader's line in A New Hope of "When I left you, I was but the learner. Now I am the master!". It doesn't though. At the end of the duel, Obi-Wan comes out very highly on top still making him the master and Vader still a learner.

How about Kanan Jarrus holding back an entire exploding fuel depot.

[@cmonster3002]

"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine..." -Obi-Wan

[@kennethferrari5232]

Nice little psych out for number one. I think an honorable mention goes to the Old Republic game when in a battle with Darth Malgus Satele Shan used several different abilities to defeat Malgus including force punch and force wind.

[@WRSHalloween]

They way you have so many reasons to explain your picks makes this channel the best on youtube

[@EvErLoyaLEagLE]

MY Honorable Mention: Obi-Wan defeats Darth Maul, "Episode I: The Phantom Menace" When Obi-Wan uses the Force to fly out of the pit, grab his fallen master's lightsaber, and halves Maul with a single swift surprising strike.

[@joshk9226]

Maul’s rampage on Ahsoka’s Venator was great to see too

[@sonic18shadow]

What about when Cere made a force shield in Fallen Order? Or when Grogu healed Greif Karga? Or when Vader fought the 3rd sister? I thought those where very awesome moments

[@rakshannagesh1566]

Vader pulling down a spaceship in the Obi Wan Kenobi show.

[@trevordavidjones]

Ahsoka is too new, but several moments from that show already belong on this top 10 list 😂😂🌌

[@darrenbradley1421]

Kanan Jaris shielded that explosion while force pushing his friends and the ship to safety

[@jamiewalsh3349]

I think sequels had killer force abilities. Force bonds, force projection, force "passing", force freeze. So many cool powers

[@rishiredij2449]

But that's what led to further disappointment for the sequels. On top of a bad story, the "cool" powers seemed to come out of nowhere but plot convenience. In my mind only the force awakens was a good film in the sequel trilogy

[@avarycepierce6296]

Definitely had cool powers that we've never seen before. They just refused to have an overall plan for the sequels unfortunately.

[@diagunner7811]

Alright all these are good but my personal favorite here is when Vader force chokes everybody who annoys him. LOL 😂

[@sambenavidez7067]

Leia's connection to the force was actually teased back in 1980 when Luke was hanging off the bottom of Cloud City.

[@skalessibbons7349]

Kanan holding back fire for a minute while protecting his family is a great moment.

[@jackwei22]

Luke using jedi mind trick on jabba's guards while entering his Palace in ROTJ.

[@vondevitt]

I mean you missed Vader pulling a ship down and tearing it open or Luke crushing a droid with the force

[@nickr831]

do animated next Kanan Jarrus alone has quite a few. solo AT-AT kill and the fuel depot explosion scene alone top what most jedi have done across multiple movies.

[@Jeremiah_Rivers76]

I don’t normally sympathize with the Empire, but the AT-AT driver had a point. Destroying the pod would kill Kanan, who held back the explosion long enough for Hera, Sabine, and Ezra to escape, at the cost of the TIE Defender production line. I’d have loved to see them in more canon works.

[@CTP909]

I feel like Starkiller pulling a star destroyer from orbit would be number one if you counted games

[@nateburguete9327]

y’all really had me with the pear moment 😂

[@CymonTempler]

Luke didn’t fail at lifting his X-Wing. Yoda was countering him by holding the X-Wing down so Luke wouldn’t know how strong his connection to the force really was and he’d want to stay on Dagobah and train. edit: mea culpa, mea culpa. No source, just theories, conjecture and observations. I ment to include my reason for stating this but obviously I forgot. We all know that Shmi was impregnated by the force which to me means that Anakin is the force incarnate. We’ve all seen what Anakin can do with the force (increased reflexes to pod race, force stop a lightsaber mid strike, pull a lot of rocks to bury Obi-Wan, tear a ship apart, etc, etc, etc). Plus he was able to force choke a person from some distance away. So we know that Anakin is strong with the force. Luke, sharing half of his father’s dna, world be at the very least half as strong. Thus making lifting an X-Wing from a bog child’s play for him. And, if you watch the scene as he’s trying to lift it Yoda’s eyes widened as if he was straining against Luke’s power to lift it. Leia, I believe had just as much force power as Luke did but she was never trained on how to use it. That’s why when her life was in danger when she flew out of the ship her woefully undeveloped force powers kicked into action taking her back to the ship.

[@SilenceCS]

What about Kanin sacrificing himself by literally stopping exploding fuel while pushing away a ship of the people he loved. Plus the force gives him his vision back for that final moment. That’s strength in the force right there!

The force is used in Star Wars so much, I think the overall franchise is an example of the force

Seeing that you selected scenes from the animated shows (in the honorable mentions) and this is the list you came up with, makes this whole list "wrong". But the biggest inclusion from the list has to be Darth Vader holding back the rebel cruiser from flying away in the Obi Wan Kenobi series. If Yoda lifting a single pilot star fighter is impressive, than Vader stopping a space cruiser big enough to hold multiple people from escaping while using thrusters and a propulsion system meant to escape a planet's gravity is insane.

Leia's just using telekinesis to pull herself to the ship. There's nothing new about it except the application. It works because she's in space, see - she 'pulls' the ship just like Luke calls his lightsaber in ESB. But the ship's real big, and there's no inertia on her, so a physics happens and she goes to the ship instead of hte other way around.
