The Phantom Menace 3D Release

[timothy]

I saw saturday and enjoyed it. 23 million is nothing to sneeze at for a tripple rerelease even if it is in 3d.

now do we know when attack of the clones will be coming out?

Waste of cash people, waste of cash. 3D is already worse than AIDS, throwing a Star Wars prequel in there makes it unfathomably terrifying.

I for one am just glad that Lucas didn't reinsert the deleted scene where Obi-Wan picks up a life-threatening STD while visiting the Gungan city. The cure involves Jar Jar, a funnel made from native Naboo coral and a lot of really inappropriate sucking.

I hate it when fillmakers insert blatant social messages into fantasy films.

Well, nothing is carved in stone but the plan is for Episode II to see its 3-D release around this same time next year. February or March of 2013.

General Mills Cereals will be including free TPM pens with purchase

Picked up 2 boxes of Reese's Puffs cereal today and got the YODA and THREEPIO pens! They are pretty cool!

a lot of really inappropriate sucking.

That would be par for the course, wouldn't it?

 

[TremblingBluStar]

The various in-car movie reviews he and his friends do are usually entertaining. The TPM stuff wasn't quite as good because the guys in the backseat weren't familiar and I didn't find them as interesting/funny as Brad's usual companions.

Yeah. His backseat review of The Smurfs was the best!

 

[Trekker4747]

Yeah, what's-his-name's rant of Smurfs was classic.

once a year a star wars rerelase till the new tv series hopefully. now do you think they will rerelease the clone wars animated movie in 3d?

No way. That thing is best forgotten. Made on a TV budget, and looks like crap compared to the newer episodes.

I do see potential for a whole new series of big budget animated Star Wars, though. If I were Lucas, I'd completely give up on live action TV series, and divert all the resources into post-ROTS animated features.

 

[cooleddie74]

Rick McCallum seems pretty convinced that the live-action series(tentatively titled "UNDERWORLD") will go ahead as planned, but it'll take a few more years before it hits the small screen. Right now more than thirty writers from all over the world are submitting story ideas and first-draft scripts for the show's initial episodes. I don't expect any reliable plot details to leak for a long time, though.

This is the same stage that things were at a few years ago.

Yeah. I know. I just didn't want to bring that up. I really, really want to see this series come to fruition in a few years and the longer it takes to hammer out the details the more worried I get. It took Lucas only two and a half years(November 1994 - June 1997) to write Episode I, cast the film and start shooting. And he was just one guy. With thirty or more writers working on the new show it shouldn't be taking this long. But I'm going to stay positive and hope for the best.

Something tells me the writing isn't the hold up, but how cost-effective it will be to shoot the thing. I get the impression they are waiting until the tech becomes more affordable to do what they want to do on a weekly basis.

 

[Trekker4747]

CRACKED sort-of takes a look at TPM 3D, or at least Warsie fandom and Lucas.

 

[Set Harth]

I saw Star Wars at the cinema back in ''77 & the title prefix WAS there it was one of those watershed moments.

[Set Harth]

I don't care what the official story is, the first screening I saw of the first release of Star Wars at the drive-in absolutely had Chapter IV - A New Hope in the rolling intro.

Bashers rewriting history? The devil you say!!!

 

[Mach5]

Weekend to monday boxoffice drop was huge, as expected. All movies dropped about 75%, with TPM making just under a million.

It's now pretty safe to say it won't get anywhere near Lion King 3D's $94 mil. , but I guess Lucas will be pretty happy with 50-75 mil. anyway. TPM does have a pretty bad rep after all, unlike Lion King which is one of the most beloved Disney classics.

Pathetic.

 

[Set Harth]

And the Biggs scene on Tatooine was there too, right?

How you get so lucky?

But now on to the more substantive arguments appearing in the Cracked comments...

Why did the Naboo care about being invaded? Why was Darth Maul attacking the Jedi? TEH MOVIE DID NOT EXPLAIN THESE THINGS!!! LUCAS IS TEH SUXXXX!!
