Didn't they just announce the blu ray release a few weeks back?
Damn, is Lucas actually short on cash?

a 3d movie needs to be shot in 3d...avatar is completely 3d whereas i think just about every other 3d movie that has come out this year has been computer rendered to 3d which is how lucas will do it with star wars...it will look like shit
Yup. To go further into unnecessary detail (from my laymen mind), just think about how a pair of eyes work. If you're looking at someone's face a few feet in front of you, your left eye is getting a little more view of the left side of the person's nose and head, and your right eye is getting a little more view of the persons right side of his nose and right side of his head. If the person's head is slightly askew, your right eye might not see his left ear but your left eye will. All of these differences between what one eye sees and the other eye sees makes something look three-dimensional. So just like in real life, if you are filming with two cameras, and separating the left camera with your left eye and right camera with your right eye with glasses, it should look very similar to real life.
Now if you are instead shooting with one camera, the image looks flat. Separating the flat image into background, foreground, etc, they might be able to make several flat layers look like they have depth between each other, but to me it's still just a bunch of flat layers. If they reproduce some of the explosions with true 3D effects, that may make up for some of the potential short comings, but I don't see this being anywhere near as clear and seamlessly 3D as Avatar.
ADD 5,200 to the post count you see, thank you.

really? thats all he has to do to make star wars nerds like us happy.
all i ask is for the original 70's release to be visually polished and in 5.1 surround. he visually polished them, but didn't touch the sound with the 2004 release. what's the point?
i heard that the release of these films in 3d will culminate in the release of the final 3 chapters of this saga ...
i don't think george lucas is a particularly good story teller/director ... gotta remember, he didn't even direct episodes 5 and 6 (empire and return of the jedi) ... he's not even the first writing credit on those films ...
I am in dire need of some clean underpants. Right now. :shock:

(actually I would see mini-ponies in 3D but that's besides the point).
i totally agree (cept about the ponies :P )
however, i will go to see jackass 3d...now that's a good use of 3d!!
I know! Especially reality... what the fuck?

We already have it
★ 2009 - Sydney, Brisbane, Auckland, Christchurch ★
★ 2011 - EV Newcastle, Melbourne 1, Melbourne 2 ★
the Anakin and Obi Wan fights in ROTS would be damn cool as well.
the Millenium Falcon would kick all sorts of butt.
but please George don't push your luck and don't use this as some excuse to add unnecessary bullshit in.
and when a tie fighter goes spinning off into space...DUCK!!!!
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand

Oh, why not? They could put in a few more clumsy, lumbering creatures in the Mos Eisely scene in A New Hope...
