Lucasfilm Kills STAR WARS 3D Re-Releases

Movie Star Wars about 11 years agoby Joey Paur

Lucasfilm has decided not to re-release any more of the Star Wars movies in 3D. Instead, they will be focusing their attention on making more new Star Wars movies! This bit of news doesn't disappoint me at all, in fact I'm glad they cancelled the re-releases, there's really no point. It was just another cash grab, which is something Disney doesn't need. I never even saw Episode I: The Phantom Menace when it was released in 3D, and it only ended up pulling in $23 million. I'm very happy with all of the decisions that Lucasfilm has made since Disney bought them.

Episode II: Attack Of The Clones was supposed to hit theaters in 3D on September 20th, 2013, and Episode III: Revenge Of The Sith was to be released in 3D on October 11th, 2013. But not anymore! I wouldn't have paid any more money to see these movie in theaters again anyway. I'm much more excited to see what J.J. Abrams is going to give us! What do you think about the 3D re-releases being cancelled?
