I’ve had Star Wars fans argue vigorously that a Jedi could deflect a cloud of buckshot with a lightsabre. I’m a Star Wars fan myself but that’s a sure sign of someone who’s gone completely off the deep end. It’s a very basic question of simple geometry - you can’t intercept every pellet in a three-dimensional cloud with a two-dimensional rod regardless of how fast your precognitive reflexes are.
Slugthrowers are a viable weapon against jedi, old canon at least.

I’d sooner accept stopping all the pellets using the force, like Neo did in the second Matrix movie.
it’s not even two dimensional, it’s one dimensional!
Ah, brain fart, indeed.
