I agree with all the above ideas!!

Also, I don't think Jack has even explored the extant of his powers before RotG. I mean, he discovered three new, powerful things he could do just within the spand of the movie (about two days, if I'm not mistaken); the super ice-explody thing he used on the nightmares when sandman died, the power to mend his staff back together, and the ability to make his frost images "come to life". Maybe he didn't believe in himself until then; he didn't know who he was, didn't think he was anyone special, didn't bother trying new and great things (and didn't really have a reason to either). And then the Guardians came along, them and Moony told him he was destined for greatness, and suddenly he also found himself in need of these powers. Think about that; when an obsticle arose, he found a way to use his powers to overcome it. To me, that shows he is very powerful.

And like I said, this was all discovered within a couple days, now that he knows he's capable of more, who knows what other great things he's discovering he can do. He's just scratched the surface. :)
