The 3D Star Wars saga is set to introduce a new age of geeks to the classic sci-fi tale of light vs. dark. George Lucas is planning on re-releasing all six Star Wars films in glorious 3D starting in 2012.
The films will be released in numerical order which means that you'll have to suffer through three years of Jar Jar Binks before you get to the original trilogy. I love Star Wars as much as the next guy, but I am admittedly skeptical about these 3D Star Wars movies. Only time will tell whether these movies are hot or flop.
