Basically what the title says. There’s always discussions about someone being force sensitive and how they could use the force or not sensitive to it at all, but has anyone ever been completely immune to it? Like if Vader was doing a force choke and the person was just like “why are you holding your hand up like that? What are you trying to do?”

    Everybody talks about Legends canon but in the main canon Toydarians are not force immune but force resistant. There’s the line in ep 1 where Qui Gon is trying to convince Watto to take credits and Watto is all like “get the fuck outta here with that bullshit, it doesn’t work on us”.

      I always thought that was playing on the “mind tricks only work on the weak-minded” thing. And thats why he was having none of Qui-Gon’s nonsense

        I think Watto saying “I’m a Toydarian! Mind tricks don’t work on me!” like that is a cultural pride thing, not a physiological thing.

      Jabba resists Jedi mind tricks, too, doesn’t he? Idk if that’s just being strong-minded or a biological condition for Hutts.
