I felt like watching all the star wars movies front to back the other week. 15 mins into episode 1 was all it took for me to say "screw this" and head straight to episode 4.
Good on ya Lucas, keep beating that dead horse as long as the millions keep rolling in.
Other directors go on to do different things and explore new ideas, but if the mess you and Spielberg made of the last Indiana Jones installment is any indication it's probably a good thing you're still obsessed on fiddling with the Star Wars hexalogy.
I think the horse has long sense stopped being a corpse and is now a gooey red paste that is mushed into the ground. Obviously the reason the last 3 movies failed is because they weren't in 3D. Also 2012, maybe this is what causes the apocolypse?
Lucas has hinted in the past that he will release future, more definitive editions of the six Star Wars films on a next-generation home-video format.[61][62] There have been discussions that he will take this opportunity to make any final adjustments, changes, additions, and/or subtractions to his films for this final release. An altered clip from The Phantom Menace included in a featurette on the DVD release of Revenge of the Sith features a computer generated Yoda replacing the original puppet; animation director Rob Coleman stated that the clip had been created as test footage of Yoda prior to work on Revenge of the Sith.[63] Lucasfilm Vice President of Marketing Jim Ward announced that Lucasfilm is likely to do more work on the films, stating "As the technology evolves and we get into a high-definition platform that is easily consumable by our customers, the situation is much better, but there will always be work to be done."[64] At Chicago Comics and Entertainment Expo 2010, Steve Sansweet, Lucasfilm's Director of Fan Relations, revealed that "a very full set of all six movies on Blu-ray with lots of extra material" is being prepared for release.[65] On August 14, 2010, George Lucas announced that all six Star Wars films will be released on Blu-ray Disc in the Fall of 2011.[66] On January 6, 2011, Lucasfilm announced the release of the Star Wars saga on Blu-ray for September 2011.[67]
*dies a little on the inside*
WHY CANT HE LEAVE THEM ALONE!?! Seems to me he's going to fuck around with the original trilogy some more.
You know what I do when I think of lucas? Watch redlettermedia's reviews. It takes all of my chaotic criticism, adds wit, organises it and speaks it back to me.
And in seven years you can buy the 3d version of the series. While the holographic versions of the same movies are pushed out to theatres! ...
Lucas should have had as little hand in the first three movies as he did the original three. Not much at all. Someoneelse should have written and directed them.
The only thing that would make me go see these movies again is if they are remastered into holodeck format so that i can reprogram Padme to be my sex slave.
