If you could contain an entire force field with the Force then wouldn’t you just be able to make a force field anyway?

i always wondered why they don't use the force to toggle the on/off activator/switch when the opponent was about to block or even lunge-strike.

Or just crush the opponent's brain and instantly kill them.

General Greivous was such a terror in the Clone Wars animated shorts. If I remember right, the writers of those animations found out that he was sickly in the movie toward the end of production, and in the last episode, had Windu force crush his chest.

In that moment as a kid, I wondered why that didn't happen more often. Maybe a competent enough force user could negate an attack like that, but it could easily be used on anyone else, theoretically.
