Hi S.S. Yoda really would have won perhaps if he would have been able to hang on to his light saber and push the Sith lightning back at Darth Sidious the way Mace Windu did. (SuperShadow: I guess so.) That is clearly seen. Why do people claim Yoda was over matched? (SuperShadow: Many fans prefer the Sith Lords over the Jedi.)
If Yoda was capable of beating Count Dooku, than Yoda would have certainly been able to defeat Sidious as well if Mace Windu can. (SuperShadow: I can agree with this.) See the point is the movie just had to go that way so Yoda was not allowed to win. (SuperShadow: The confrontation of Yoda vs. Sidious had to happen, but Yoda could not achieve victory under any situation.)
But I know better. You can say that I am wrong, but I can make my own picture regardless of that. Thoughts? Thanks. (SuperShadow: Your opinion on this matter is important. We are free to interpret the Star Wars movies in our own unique ways. That is what makes Star Wars so special.)
Lord Shadow, I'm hearing a chorus of "Why don't you make the next 'Star Wars' movie just like 'The Dark Knight'?" (SuperShadow: The fandom will eventually forget about the transcendent nature of The Dark Knight.) And what they're forgetting is, The Batman is a very, very, very dark personality. (SuperShadow: Agreed. Batman is wickedly twisted.)
I'm not at all sure he fits in the "Star Wars" universe. (SuperShadow: Probably not.) I mean, what if you made a Sith Lord or an Imperial Admiral a real human being with dark moods and fits of rage? (SuperShadow: Very reasonable.) Perhaps, but the fans think "The Saga Is Complete." Making the live-action TV series take place between Star Wars Episodes 3 and 4 reinforces the notion that "There is no more story to tell."
And that was a major complaint about "Clone Wars," as you mentioned. The fans think that George is going back to a "Complete Saga" from their parents' generation and making cartoons to generate a few extra bucks. I understand George's reasoning for the 16 year interval. He wants to control the movies.
And most fans think, "George is never going to make another Trilogy. He's too rich and happy to spend the necessary ten years. He's got better things to do with his retirement years." You can tell them otherwise, but what if the fans are right? (SuperShadow: We can't see the future unfortunately. Who knows what will happen?)
SS, if Qui-Gon Jinn had survived the encounter with Darth Maul and Qui-Gon trained Anakin as a Jedi, who would Obi-Wan's apprentice be? (SuperShadow: Excellent query. It would have been some anonymous Jedi we've not seen before.) Then if it was Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan and Anakin vs. Count Dooku, would Dooku kill Qui-Gon since Qui-Gon was Dooku's apprentice? (SuperShadow: Dooku would never kill Qui-Gon.)
Then if Anakin killed Dooku, what would happen? (SuperShadow: Not sure.) Would Darth Sidious try to persuade Anakin to join him? Sidious doesn't have any other motive or will Sidious wait until Anakin has reached his true power? (SuperShadow: Ever since Sidious met Anakin during The Phantom Menace, Sidious planned to turn Anakin to the dark side. Sidious could foresee that Anakin was crucial to the completion of the Sith conspiracy to end the reign of the Old Republic and Jedi Order.)
Or find a new Sith apprentice and let him or her be an expendable Sith and just use them as a tool to let Anakin kill them and see the full extent of Anakin's power? (SuperShadow: It's true that Sidious enjoys having his current Sith apprentice fight it out with the person Sidious wants as the new Sith apprentice. We saw these showdowns in both Revenge of the Sith and Return of the Jedi.)
Now SuperShadow, you said by the time of Star Wars Episode 10 the Jedi Order is no more. (SuperShadow: This is true.) I have two questions: Are there still Force sensitive beings? (SuperShadow: Yeah, the Force remains the primary religion of the Star Wars galaxy.) And is the New Republic still around? Let me know. (SuperShadow: The New Republic evolves into a more expansive imperial democracy. You would be stunned at the grandeur and epic scale of this future civilization.)
Hello SS, it's plain and simple, bring back the director of The Empire Strikes Back and you just might save the Star Wars franchise because that crap you call Star Wars (Episodes 1 through 3) was just that crap. (SuperShadow: Irvin Kershner, who directed The Empire Strikes Out, had one successful movie his entire film career. Guess what it was? We don't need further sabotage from some ancient director, who is over 70 million years old by now. Hahaha.)
Hello, SS! I saw the Star Wars The Clone Wars movie three days ago and I personally thought it was the best Star Wars yet! (SuperShadow: To each his own apparently.) But I read the Clone Wars novel before the movie came out and I thought Asajj Ventress would light saber duel Anakin and Ahsoka Tano in the Rancor pit. Why was this not in the movie? (SuperShadow: Why does it matter? Hahaha.)
And also, what happens to Ahsoka in Revenge of the Sith? (SuperShadow: We don't know at the moment. You'll need to watch additional episodes of the new Clone Wars TV series on the Cartoon Network to learn the fate of this character.) Thanks for your time. ROCK ON SS! (SuperShadow: We continue to dominate all areas of reality and beyond. Hahaha.)
Hello SuperShadow, I have a single idea that I think is pretty good. (SuperShadow: Your genius is unquestionable.) Okay in the new Star Wars movie episodes, there should be some guards for the Jedi Temples and places like that that are Force sensitive, but were too old for the Jedi training or just weren't good enough. (SuperShadow: Fantastic idea.)
These people train as guards, who use weapons that are blaster rifles and either double as light sabers or have a small blade like a light saber on the other end. Just an idea. (SuperShadow: Impressive. This remarkable concept will be forwarded to Lucas.)
Will we see John Rhys Davies in anymore Indiana Jones movies? (SuperShadow: It was quite disappointing not to see Sallah during Indiana Jones 4 and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. It's unlikely we'll ever see Sallah again.) Will we see Indy Jones strangle anyone with his whip? (SuperShadow: We could possibly insert this for Indiana Jones 5. This will be given to Lucas for consideration.)

Hi there. So I was just watching the Star Wars The Clone Wars movie here in Germany yesterday and well what can I say? I was more than pleasantly surprised. It was so cool and so funny. (SuperShadow: You're the kind of fan Lucas adores.) My buddy and I just loved it and we are totally crazy about Ahsoka Tano.
She is so great and fresh, just super. Anyway this film reminded me more of the old films than the Star Wars prequels, but we love them all the same. People who say it's not good don't deserve to live among us (just joking). Star Wars rocks the world. Great work, can't wait to see the Clone Wars TV series soon. (SuperShadow: Right now, I'm neutral in this election cycle. Russia needs to be a part of the World Trade Organization and NATO. A new Cold War is unacceptable. Don't make me interfere with the free will of the voters.)
Dear SS, quit messing around with these crap Star Wars films and make Star Wars Episode 7, 8 and 9. Your fan base will come back. (SuperShadow: SS is also irate, but for different reasons. The U.S. Government wildly spreads false disinformation about the duly designated SS. Why persecute the most powerful Human Being of all time with no concern for the future? Moreover, the U.S. Government continually doesn't adequately protect the interests of SS.
It doesn't matter how the machine immortals feel about my nonsense. If they build a working time machine, they can contact me in the past and SuperShadow.com will never happen. However, reality is what it is. Why should I intercede on the behalf of ungrateful people, who can't protect SS hegemony from oppressive mega corporations? Unlike the rest of you, I'm very, very thankful the technological gods permit us to exist.)
Dear Shadow, I saw the Clone Wars movie opening night and was disappointed only on certain levels. I particularly thought the computer animation was good and had the Star Wars feeling that the Star Wars prequels environments had. The music was, not John Williams, and mediocre. (SuperShadow: You are the final judge.) The film needed to incorporate more of Williams' themes. The number one thing that I loathed was the opening sequence.
No opening title crawl, no Star Wars theme and an immediate sequence of cut scenes featuring a terrible narration. (SuperShadow: This is why Lucas must adhere to the Star Wars plot formula very, very strictly.) Immediately the audience saw that and was like "WHAT?" (SuperShadow: Excellent point.) That dialogue during the narration was better off being read during the crawl. Then the audience had to sit through a half hour of Anakin / Obi-Wan battling droids with clones. (SuperShadow: Boring.)
There's only so much clones and droids shooting at each other we can take. (SuperShadow: Agreed.) The whole scene should have only been 15 minutes. That's how I would've done it and I think the fans would agree. After all the movie was alright, and entertaining, but it was slow. (SuperShadow: This is why it is imperative for Lucas to direct and write every single Star Wars motion picture.)
Lucas knows it's important for Star Wars to be faster and more intense, but this movie lacked that. I saw Revenge of the Sith 6 times in the theater and now I have no desire to see this movie again in the theater. If you want to save Star Wars, begin the live action Star Wars TV series and for goodness sakes begin production of Star Wars Episode 7! (SuperShadow: Your advice will be forwarded to Lucas.)
Hey SS. I have a question that's been annoying me. In Star Wars Episode 3, are the clones in the Battle of Kashyyyk scout troopers or regular clones with scout armor? Thanks a ton. (SuperShadow: What you saw were elite special forces commandos from the clone military.)
Since George Lucas has already went backwards once going from Return of the Jedi to The Phantom Menace, why not do a Star Wars movie trilogy based on the X-Box video game Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic? (SuperShadow: Not gonna happen.) The movie trilogy could explain how the Sith were big in the galaxy and their story of how they fought the Jedi and became extinct up until Senator Palpatine.
I think that it would make a great story and then there are no conflicts with old actors. Another idea is to make a Star Wars movie about the video game STAR WARS THE FORCE UNLEASHED. You don't need to go forward all the time Lucas showed that in his second Star Wars trilogy. (SuperShadow: Lucas doesn't make Star Wars movies or TV series based on the Star Wars video games.)
Supes, Princess Leia was famous for all her different hair styles in the classic Star Wars trilogy. In the spirit of tradition, I hope we'll see more futuristic styles from Leia in Star Wars Episodes 7 - 9. (SuperShadow: Yeah, there will be many diverse hair styles for Leia in Star Wars Episode 7, 8 and 9.)
However, to add a twist to her many hairdos, could it be possible to see Leia as a brunette in Star Wars Episode 7, a blonde in Star Wars Episode 8 and finally a redhead in Star Wars Episode 9? Who says there isn't hair dye in space? (SuperShadow: You make a compelling suggestion, but what you ask for isn't really Star Wars.)
Lord Shadow, one of the reasons for the box office and critical failure of "The Clone Wars" was they were expecting Star Wars Episode 7. (SuperShadow: A curse for Lucas.) I think it's fun to imagine what Episode 7 would, could, and should be. Why? Because I might die before I see George's version in the theaters. Call it a Worst-Case Scenario, but if I can see the movie in my head, that's better than nothing. (SuperShadow: If we apply enough pressure on Lucas, he may relent and begin filming on Star Wars Episode 7 soon. We must persist and persist until we win.)
Future project on Star Wars video games going be Return of the Jedi for 135 years after called Star Wars Legacy possible last Skywalker called Cade Skywalker based on comic book by published Dark Horse comic? I wanna to see it. (SuperShadow: Perhaps so. This idea will be sent to Lucas.)
