    Apart from the prequel thing, I agree with you. 3D re-releases are just being shoved into our faces. Hell I just heard they plan to re-release TITANIC of all movies in 3D.

    I wonder what would happen when all movies in existence have been re-released in 3D and we're out of ideas? Release them in 4D, 5D or any other type of D out there?

    Oh wait shame on me. I bet by the time they release it on 5D, we'll be watching movies and playing card games on motorcycles.

    Yeah I heard about Titanic being re-released in 3D too. I don't think there is any purpose to re-releasing it in 3D since the only thing that MIGHT look good in it is when the ship is sinking. (I'm not much of a fan of 3D). But one thing I am looking forward to is I believe that Titanic might make more money that Avatar LOL because I think Titanic is a better movie than Avatar.

    Also, I agree with you Joe. IDK what is up with this 3D stuff and why the hell does Star Wars need to be re-re-re-re (etc) released. I've seen enough.

    Actually, at my mall there is a 5D theater. Apparently, you have to pay $20 per show, and they're only like 15 minutes are so because it'll hurt our brains or something if we're in there for very long. There's a horror flick, an ocean flick (which might actually be kinda cool), and a kiddie flick, and a couple more I think.

    What? 1D = Line, 2D = Plane, 3D = Depth/Space, 4D = Time (Theoretically)... how can there be a 4D let alone 5D theater? Unless you mean the bullshit Universal has where they call it 4D and you get hit with water and poked with things in your seat and your hair gets blown a little. Still doesn't explain 5D. I have a feeling you're lying, unless you give me a link or something.

    I agree.

    I hate these Mother Fuckin' 3D effects in my Mother Fuckin' movies!

    :flame: :flame: :flame: :flame: :flame: :flame: :flame: :flame: :flame:

    I will NEVER watch a 3D movie.
    EVER.

    Fuck 3D.

    As always, your skit before the review may have quite possibly been the funniest part of the whole review. That and the end of it.

    It's always fun to watch you have fun! And don't worry, George isn't getting any of my money. I have no intentions of seeing any of the re-re-re-re-whatever- releases.

    Yeah, I'm just gonna take a little road trip to Skywalker Ranch. I'll stand on the lawn, waving $90 and yelling, "YOU SEE MY MONEY, LUCAS? YOU SEE IT? WELL, YOU'RE NOT GETTING SH*T 'TILL I GET MY BATTLEFRONT 3, SO TAKE YODA'S 3-D GLASSES AND SHOVE IT UP YOUR ASS!" :flame: :flame: :flame: :flame: :flame: :flame: :flame: :flame: :flame: :flame: :flame:

    You know, you're right Joe. This is the last straw. Lucas, GET HELP. This isn't just greed, I swear you're suffering from some sort of slowly encroaching DEMENTIA.

    :flame: What a god damn rip off! Like they haven't milked the franchise enough. Is it really that hard for Lucas to do something new for once?

    Great video Joe!
  • STIntergalactic
    I'll admit it. I'm going to see them all.
  • Squeejee
    NO! NEVER!

    I hereby pledge that I will not support the rape of my beloved series, Star Wars, and that on the opening night of each movie I will show up to the theater to see anything else that is on at the same time.

    We need to start a petition or something for this shit.
  • Gulmont Blade
    I'm not going to go see it. I cant see 3d.
  • Geer313  - The reason i don't watch anything i 3d
    It's crap like this that makes me happy I have never watched a movie in 3d. I thank you Joe for warning me about this rerelease, so I can avoid it like the plague.

    ...
    Why?!
    I grew up with Star Wars, I love Star Wars, and I dislike the prequels, OMG I do. And now in 3 fucking D?
    I'd rather prefer he would remake the prequels and cancel Anakin from the last original movie, where Ben, Yoda and Anakin appear.
  • Fredrikslicer
    For ones Im glad I grew up with James Bond instead of starwars

    I have yet to see a 3D movie outside of Disney World, and I'm certainly not going to start with these obvious cash-ins. You're right that he should make a third trilogy instead. They might suck, but at least it'd be something NEW.
  • DXM616
    avatar
    ok so you might know

    Was or wasn't the trench run done in 3-d for for Epcot Or is this the depravity of rembering something when you saw it at five years old?

    The only movie I really remember seeing there was Captain EO, so I can't help you there. I don't think Disney has any rights to Star Wars, though, so it seems unlikely.
  • Ollitsac Okim  - Captain EO!
    that was the last 3D movie i seen was Captain EO and i was 6 i think.horrible experience that was the first time I got a headache and it was the 4 thing we went to in disneyland so i was miserable that whole day.

    Maybe the most accurate video you've ever made.

    I will scream, I will moan, and I will pull my hair out because I hate the 3D phenomenon.

    But...I will probably end up seeing all fucking six of them. Because it's Star Wars, dammit.

    Sometimes I hate myself.

    I had to pause the video on that first angry explosion because I was laughing so hard! XD

    Also, is it just me? Or did you enjoy repeating the phrase "up his ass" just a little too much?

    Gread vid though, dude! As of today, I'm setting aside all the ticket money I would be spending to be put towards something something more noble, like eco-terrorism.
  • ToonMonkey
    I can 100% promise you that I will NOT be watching any of these films.

    Thank you, George Lucas, for once again making me glad I own the '93 Laserdisc releases of Episodes IV - VI. And, thank you, Joe, for capturing the reaction of the much of the internet so concisely.
  • Raging Mudcrab

    This is hardly surprising. 3D isn't going anywhere, and Star Wars gets a rerelease something like every 10 years or so. It's only logical it'd happen now that 3D is getting big. I say fuck it. If you don't like Star Wars revamps, don't worry about it and stick to the originals you have on VHS and keep reading Expanded Universe novels like I do. If you like 3D, don't go see 3D movies, although it'll be hard to escape it because mark my words, 3D is the next step in film.

    I can see the cons of it. But I can see the pros.
    Lucas uses Star wars to test new tech

    like motion capture for the first release

    the Special editions were a test to see if they could make CGI environments and characters believable which lead to the prequels

    which lead to Avatar and nearly 2.8 billion dollars making it Fox's second biggest cash cow next to Star wars.

    And we all now Lucas won't mess up the effects. Story yes, but not the effects.
  • Coldberg
    avatar
    as shitty as the prequels were i kinda was hoping lucas would remake the original 3 films with modern technology, that would have atleas been interesting to watch. But i gues starwars is done
  • Sheeyah
    avatar
    No, for the same reason no one will remake the original Stark Trek series. They're classics that shouldn't be remade. I think most fans, myself included, hate just the upgrades to the original films.

    If Lucas wants to make another Star Wars movie he really should go back before any of the others and start fresh. Or maybe that's the problem - he's out of new ideas.

    What's next, Indiana Jones in 3D? So we can see a giant boulder coming out of the screen at us?

    Crap.

    I hated the Prequals, and the only reason I even own Epi I is because Dad thought I needed it. I will unfortunately probably go see 4-6, but this 3D is just getting ridiculous. He's pouring all his money into another remake, but not doing anything else interesting. The Thrawn Trilogy is a very well written set of books. He could totally make an entire new set of movies from it. Anything with the Yuuzhan Vong would be epic.

    Wasn't part of the charm of the original movie the use of props and puppets to tell a decent story? Has Lucas Seen how well Star Trek does, now having released 11 movies? Doesn't he know that he'd be able to get even MORE money if he made more movies?
  • Tanabata07
    ...That laugh tells me he no longer takes his own work seriously. I'll bet the prequels were just a joke. Yeah, I can imagine it now.

    "Lucas, we need a new Star Wars film!"

    "Why?"

    "Shut up and make it!"

    "Fine, you want Hayden Christianson in it?"

    "Yes! You're a genius, Lucas!"

    "How about a giant walking fish for comic relief?"

    "Of course! That's what Star Wars was missing!"

    And Lucas pulls out his whiskey.

    Jar Jar seems a lot more nimble than the others. Imagine if he was actually competent? He'd probably make a good spy and the bumbling idiot that we see could make for a good cover. I guess the awesomeness would be too volatile. :meow:

    Same here. Guess I'll save money not buying the TV as well.

    Personally I don't think 3D will last to 2017, only as a small obscure gimmick perhaps, but the audience will understand that it is still the story that makes a good movie.

  • Mysteria Indictus

    Your intro pretty much summed my feelings up, Joe.

    At this point I say I wouldn't go watch them, but I guess we'll see when the time comes and friends start bugging me about it.

    Still, don't we all know that if there was one movie Lucas really should make a 3D re-release of, it's Howard the Duck =D
  • Shinigami

    This is whole milking Star Wars franchise has already went above ridicilous. And what Lucas is doing this time? He is using same method as everyone else, using 3D.
  • keller
    Did you know that 3d tellevision with glasses is not gonna happen, it's gonna be with a panel, meaning you can watch it without. but..... yeah.... 3d with glasses is horrible. It's frustrating. Re-re-re-releasing things will score mr. lucas money with the young generation, that's what this is all about.
  • Doleth
    avatar
    You do realize that 3d tv with glasses are already available in most store, right?
  • DesertEagle
    avatar
    Joe, this has to be my favorite movie related video from you yet. Love seeing you act on camera. You should really branch out your talent into the film industry somehow.

    And henceforth I will not be spending a dime on anything [i]Star Wars[/i] related unless things seriously change. George Lucas is running his whole franchise straight into the ground without much hope.
  • Doleth
    avatar
    I don't think Lucas will last until 2017 as there seems to be an alien parasite growing in his neck.

    I know I won't go see any of the prequel movie and I'll only go for ep IV and V if there's a 2d version as I consider 3d to be one of the worst gimmick in cinema and I just can't understand why people like it and call it the next step in movie making. The only thing it adds to a movie is the capacity to give headache and to wear stupid used glasses over regular glasses.

    The worst part is that they will use the update version of the original trilogy with all the unwanted cgi comic relief crap, like that yellow midget travestite alien that sing for like 7 years in return of the jedi or Greedo's gun apparently shooting at a stupid angle.
  • LimeGreenSquid
    avatar
    That's what i dread, too. I'd do anything to never hear that asshole sing in Jabba's palace ever again. The puppet girl did just fine. It was supposed to sound alien, and it totally did. But the Special Edition version just sounded like really bad Earth music.
    The Mos Eisley Cantina, a little scummy bar, had far superior music than Jabba's PALACE.

    I know I'm gonna catch some hell from this, but I only like two of the star wars movies... episode 3 and episode 5 that's it. I kind of think it's an over rated series... sorry.

    -flameflameflameflameflam eflameflameflameflameflam eflameflameflameflame-
    Okay now that that's out of my system. The thing you have to understand is that it's not "just Star Wars" to many fans. People need escapism once in a while, and to many Star Wars is the ultimate form of escapism, they remember it from when they were a kid and hold it in extremely high regard. Seeing what the very creator of the movies is doing to his, now horribly disfigured, creations is very difficult for some people. In case you haven't guess I am one of those "some people".

    Also, who really like Episode 3? Honestly.
  • JTDrift  - Not Ever Again...
    Oh trust me Joe, I'm not going to go see these re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re- re-re-release at all. I went and paid for all 3 of the prequels in theaters and then watched the originals on VHS. I'm officially done. I didn't even bother going to see the originals when they were re-released in theaters.

    As far as the prequels go, the only thing that made it for me was the animated Clone Wars episodes that played on cartoon network. The one that followed the Jedi and actually showed General Grievous as a Bad ass before they made it a kiddie friendly cash cow.
  • Qarx
    You missed about 3 "re"s in there :snicker:

    Seriously, we've already seen what happens when you put 3-D into a movie that wasn't made for 3-D... best case scenario: the movies get additional scenes ala the first re-releases of the Original Trilogy that take advantage of this 3-D gimmick... and if they're anything like that shitty music scene in Return of the Jedi... :psychotic:

    EDIT:
    That first part of my comment was a joke. Ha ha.
