Sooooooo. New interview as SS.com. Short, but still pretty insane.
Hey SS. Love your site! (SuperShadow: That’s all I hear day in and day out. I love the countless thousands that visit SS.com daily. Can’t live without ya.) I've found all I need to know. Just wanted to suggest a couple of improvements: A forum, where fans can chat on line? (SuperShadow: Nyet. Never gonna happen. SS.com is a dictatorship. All info is controlled by the legendary SS. Having a message board would give the fans a voice that Lucas could read. This is not a democracy. I will forever control what fan ideas make it to Lucas.) Maybe even a system where fans can log in and have user names? (SuperShadow: No, I don’t like web sites that have that feature.) That would be awesome. Please post, Master Jedi SS. (SuperShadow: Thanks for the tres-cool suggestions, but no dice this time around.)
The main reason he doesn't truly want a messege board is that it would turn out something terrible. People would constantly bombard him with unmasked stuff.
You know, he does constantly contradict himself. At one moment he is for the voice of the people, and the next moment he isn't. And all the while you have to wonder which parts he is trying to joke and which parts he is trying to use to deceive.

Yeah and we would see something similar to what happened at e-baums forums. I reckon there are about as many ytmnders then there is ss haters

He's in quite a powerful position, considering that most people don't believe his crap. People who believe him will daily be checking his site and those who don't will want to check it and see what BS he's been spouting. So nautrally, he's going to want to tease both as best he can.

That's actually really insightful. I think you are right man
And another thing as well - eventually (if not already) Lucasfilm will rely on supershadow to keep going. He is constantly spinning up hype about the franchise and keeping it popular to some people. And what do you do when you're hyped up? You buy things that relate to the the franchise to try and tame you're excitement during the wait for 'the sequel trilogy'. This then keeps the profits rolling into Lucasfilm. He is also, to some extent, doing the same with Lucasrts, as he is constantly posting questions relating to computer games.
In fact, despite the true horror if such a thing was to happen, Lucasfilm may actually give him a position and pay him to BS, just like the fancy one he blabbed he had gotten a while ago
Or the fact that SuperShadow says that the EU is all completely false and none of it has ever happened in the star wars galaxy when he's going around and using characters from the books.
While some of the Expanded Universe is well written and never deserves to be bashed, we all have to admit that some of the things in it are... weird, to say the least. In factuality, Lucas doesn't keep up with the EU, and actually does disagree with a lot of it. If I remember right I read somewhere that he might keep up with the comic books.

Nebar, it is alright. You can admit to us that you are Mickey.
call me what ever you like.
To compare SuperShadow with Santa is very strange, and you know how I ment that. Even though you have a point, so in that case let me correct my statement: Whats next on your to do list? Are you going to the shopping mall and show the kids, that the guy in the Santa costume is a fake, next x-mas?
Better that way?
