A few years back, on the Tonight Show, Harrison Ford told Jay Leno he didn't have any desire to go back and play Han Solo, because the role didn't have much character development. I think he described the role as being a "little too light."
He went on to say he'd play Indiana Jones again "in a New York minute."
-DD
According to Lucas on the Star Wars trilogy DVD special features disc, Harrison wanted Solo to be killed in Return of The Jedi.
Both Harrison and Kasdan wanted someone to die to make the last chapter more interesting, however Lucas didn't want this to happen so it stayed the way Lucas originally wanted it.
Plus - wasn't SS gonna play Han Solo? 😛 I remember him saying that at some point.
BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Ok, he has seriously gotten himself into it this time. Today on the supershadow site the world's biggest hack has said:
SS.com Exclusive: This Monday (January 17th) SS will be posting an exhaustive interview with George Lucas, the creator of Star Wars. The first set of questions will be ones asked by SS, but Lucas has agreed to start answering questions from the fans beginning on Monday, January 24th. SS will provide you with a means to submit questions to Lucas.
I am OH SO looking forward to seeing what happens here. Anyone care to join me?

I love he that he can't even keep his own persona straight. Someone asked him the meaning of life, and he responds:
(SuperShadow: We need to put things in perspective. God has patiently waited for this moment in time to arrive. It has been approximately 12 - 15 billion years since the big bang that started the expansion of the Universe. All this is evidence that God has invested a lot of time in humanity. What you do with your time on Earth will determine your station in Heaven. It is best to treat all people with kindness and to do many good acts for the less fortunate. You should lead a life similar to Jesus.)
Isn't this the same clownskull who constantly tries to impress people with how much scoring he does? Last I checked, Jesus didn't have ho's in different area codes.
Mickey is just the saddest little man ever.

The George Lucas Interviews at SuperShadow.com
Monday, January 17, 2004
SuperShadow: Will the fans get to see a Mechanical Darth Vader vs. the Jedi fight sequence at the end of Revenge of the Sith?
George Lucas: No.
SuperShadow: Why not? The fans have been asking for this for many years.
George Lucas: You always want to leave the fans wanting more.
SuperShadow: What do you mean?
George Lucas: It would be difficult for the fans to handle seeing the classic-looking Vader hunting down the Jedi. By the end of the film, the fans will already be exhausted. Vader’s hunting down of the Jedi will have to be explored elsewhere.
SuperShadow: Do you mean the ancillary Star Wars literature?
George Lucas: Yes, somebody writing the novels, comic books and video games can portray Vader’s battles against the last remaining Jedi.
SuperShadow: Would you consider creating a Star Wars TV show to chronicle the events in between Revenge of the Sith and Episode 4: A New Hope?
George Lucas: That’s a possibility.
SuperShadow: How realistic a possibility is it?
George Lucas: With the success of the Clone Wars show, I think we can come up with more.
SuperShadow: Live action, cartoon or computer animated?
George Lucas: I’m thinking live action.
SuperShadow: Will the fans be able to contribute ideas to the TV show?
George Lucas: Yes, of course. The fans and their ideas have become an integral part of the Star Wars experience.
SuperShadow: What fan ideas are you using in Revenge of the Sith?
George Lucas: The space battle over Coruscant was a fan-derived idea. Anakin killing the Separatist leaders came from the fans. Having many light-saber duels is based on what the fans want. The fan ideas used in the movie are many.
SuperShadow: Do you enjoy receiving ideas and comments from the fans?
George Lucas: Yes, it keeps me in touch with what the fans desire.
SuperShadow: Anything you don’t like about the fans?
George Lucas: The ones who despise Jar Jar are not high on my list.
SuperShadow: Speaking of Jar Jar Binks: Why is his role in the prequel trilogy getting smaller and smaller?
George Lucas: Jar Jar served his purpose in The Phantom Menace. There is nothing really for him to do in the subsequent movies. His basic purpose was to bring the Gungans to help Queen Amidala and her people.
SuperShadow: Negative reactions to Jar Jar by a tiny fraction of the fan community didn’t influence this decision to limit Jar Jar’s role in Revenge of the Sith?
George Lucas: No, not really. Jar Jar receives more fan mail at Lucasfilm than any other character. He has been a success on all levels. He’s the funniest character I have ever created.
SuperShadow: Chewbacca is a character similar to Jar Jar yet Chewie’s role in the classic trilogy did not diminish as the trilogy progressed?
George Lucas: Chewie is different. He is one of the main characters. He’s always with Han so you have to have Chewie too. They go hand in hand.
SuperShadow: Back to the potential TV show. Do you plan to make it like the Star Trek franchise where you have multiple series covering different time frames?
George Lucas: If we make a TV show, future shows would depend on whether there is sufficient demand from the fans. We really don’t know when the first show would be set. It could be after Revenge of the Sith. Or we could explore the first days of the Jedi Knights. Or the time when the Sith controlled the universe. The possibilities are limitless.
SuperShadow: What do you have to say about Episode 7?
George Lucas: The next trilogy will be up to the fans. If Revenge of the Sith is the most successful box-office film of 2005, then I will definitely allow production to begin on the next trilogy by 2010. If the fans disappoint me at the box office, then the book may be closed.
SuperShadow: Why?
George Lucas: If Revenge of the Sith underperforms financially, then this would signal there isn’t sufficient interest to pursue more movies. I’m getting old and I don’t look forward to the process of starting yet another trilogy. Each trilogy consumes about ten years of my time. Life is short and there is more to life than Star Wars.
SuperShadow: The fans could do all the work.
George Lucas: I would still want to be involved more than just providing the basic plot outline. I’m not sure if I want to do that again. I’m usually pretty burned out by the third movie so I would like a long break.
SuperShadow: So the fans may have to literally wait for Star Wars to enter the public domain before we see more movies?
George Lucas: None of us will be alive when that happens so I’m not worried. By the time that happens there may be no interest in Star Wars. I’m surprised there is any interest at all anyway.
SuperShadow: Why is that?
George Lucas: Well, Star Wars isn’t really commercial. It’s different than other film franchises where the studios are only concerned with making the next film. Star Wars has not been about the money. Never has been.
SuperShadow: You’re a multi-billionaire so that means you have made plenty from Star Wars?
George Lucas: I’ve been lucky financially, but if I were in it for the money we would be doing Episode 12 by now.
SuperShadow: Will Skywalker Ranch ever be open to the public for tours?
George Lucas: No, never.
SuperShadow: Why not?
George Lucas: Lucasfilm is a business first. We can’t drain funds or time on such things. I doubt many fans would travel here just to see the Ranch.
SuperShadow: Do you meet fans very often in the public?
George Lucas: Not really. My name is more famous than my face. So when people see me in public they have no idea who I am.
SuperShadow: You never get autograph requests in public?
George Lucas: I’m not saying nobody recognizes me. I’m saying that not many people do. I don’t mind signing autographs. Most of the fans I meet are usually intimidated.
SuperShadow: What about Indiana Jones 4?
George Lucas: It’s developing. Slowly but surely.
SuperShadow: Can I reveal the current plot for it?
George Lucas: I’d rather not for the time being. Steven is more sensitive about revealing the plot to the public than I am. It’s really his movie after all.
SuperShadow: I guess you’re referring to Steven Spielberg?
George Lucas: Yes.
SuperShadow: Isn’t Harrison Ford kinda old to be playing Indy? Harrison is older than you are.
George Lucas: We can work with the age issue.
SuperShadow: What kind of realistic action sequences can a sixty-year-old man be involved in?
George Lucas: This is not a problem. I don’t see anything wrong.
SuperShadow: Why use a plot formula for Star Wars and Indiana Jones?
George Lucas: I feel more comfortable doing the same things time and time again. It’s sort of like being a composer like Mozart.
SuperShadow: Will history remember you as a legendary film maker who changed the very nature of film making?
George Lucas: I’ll be remembered just for the fact that Star Wars had such a cultural impact. Whether this will be remembered by historians as a negative or positive thing is hard to guess.
SuperShadow: Thanks for speaking with us.
George Lucas: My pleasure.
SuperShadow: The next round of questions will be from the fans.
George Lucas: It should be enjoyable.

What do you want to say to George Lucas?
What a load of bs, total pants! 😆 😆 😆
I like how George Lucas "speaks" in the exact same sentence structure as Supershadow himself. The line where George threatens "no more Star Wars" if "the fans let me down at the box office" was hilarious. As if ANYONE would ever say something like that and risk alienating their fan base. I think GL's a little more saavy than that.
I still think Mickey is pathetic and sad, but I'm also starting to think he's having a hell of a lot of fun reeling in the gullible audience at his site. It's like his site is a huge sociology experiment being done for a graduate thesis on the stupidity of the masses.
I wonder if Lucas is going to give Mickey the legal slap down for posting a fake interview? (Although maybe he interviewed a "real" George Lucas, who mops the floors at the Y or something, to avoid legal issues.) 😄
-DD
By the way... I notice Mickey said today that he's going to Skywalker Ranch in February to edit the film. A few weeks back he claimed he was already there and would be until just before the release.
He can't be this incompetent at remembering his own BS. I'm really starting to think Mickey's pulling a big "Phil Hendrie" style scam on everyone.
-DD
