ST Dark Side Powers In Episode VII

One of my favorite points of the RedLetterMedia prequel trilogy review was that Lucas got lazy with his diversity of dark side powers in the prequel trilogy... as if, just because Darth Vader preferred force choking people, and Palpatine thought using force lightning in the context of prolonging Luke's death for as long as possible, every dark side user and their mother decided to spam these powers (just watch the close quarters Dooku/Ventress/Savage duel from TCW to see my point )

Also, one of my favorite passages in Shadows of the Empire was Darth Vader thinking that he could stop someone's heart from beating if he really wanted to, its just that he preferred snapping people's necks.

That said, what new dark side tactics would you like to see in the sequel trilogy? Breaking every individual bone in the body to interrogate someone? Creating Magneto-style orbs to bounce around the room?

 

There is already a thread discussing this very topic:

Do you want to see the Dark Side make a comeback?
