Starting in 1977 with Star Wars, George Lucas made three of the most successful films of all time. In 1997 he re-released the orignial trilogy to theatres with new special effects. The DVDs that came out last year had even more changes. Well, never one to leave well enough alone, George Lucas has announced that he will use new technology to recreate all six Star Wars movies in 3-D... How I wish I were making this up... He said to expect the first rerelease in 2007...
Where will this all end? Channeling the psychic powers of the Mighty Carnac I was able to find out:
2007
The six Star Wars films are released in 3-D. Audiences discover that Jar-Jar was bad enough the first time, but positively horrifying in 3-D. Admissions to psychiatric units triple in the first week of The Phantom Menace's rerelease.
2017
George Lucas perfects technology that allows audiences to smell the films. After previewing the movies, audiences are given barf bags to use every time a Wookie appears on screen.
2027
For the fiftieth anniversary of Star Wars, Lucas proudly announces that there's not one single frame of the original movie left in the film, all actors replaced by lifelike animatronic robots... Industry wags notice that Lucasfilm has patented a process that would allow audiences to taste whatever is shown onscreen. Fans of the series eagerly await the newer, tastier installments in 2037...
