STAR WARS EP 1: THE PHANTOM MENACE in 3D

I am so not there.

Now you're just grabbing for all the fucking money you can, George. Remember saying that, after Ep 3, you wanted to make some "little films"? I do. I remember thinking at the time that you would never again make a little film, because after all these years of riding at the head of a marketing juggernaut the likes of which the world has never seen, you couldn't stop.

George? Let me clue you in: A lot of people aren't all that thrilled with 3D technology when it works properly. The retro-fitted shit has destroyed movie franchises in the cradle. And you want to give us Jake Lloyd and Jar-Jar in 3D? That 3D?

Now, more than ever, George Lucas needs someone to tell him "no".

Sigh. Okay. If you could make a favorite book or comic or TV show or animated series into a 3D movie, a good 3D movie, would you? And, if so, which one? I could deal with a done-right tale of Babylon 5 during the Shadow war -- just for the spaceships. And maybe Claudia Christian.

But when that little kid says "Hey Artoo -- let's go left!" you're totally going to see that left. It'll be so awesome the line will seem like solid gold instead of stilted hackwork.
