Are we talking about the same technology here, whereby the image is recreated as normal, but with an additional red and green reproduction of the elements thrown to the left and right of the original, at varying distances depending upon how far from the viewer they arte supposed to appear, so that when viewed through coloured specs a kind of cardboard cutout effect gives a vague sense of depth and makes you feels dizzy?
George is doing that to Star Wars?
Sheesh, welcome to 1984.
In fact, when did Hitchcock do Dial M for Murder - then drop the 3D idea altogether, for the simple reason that it is pretty crap and it doesn't really work...?

It should be more like that.

Q: Do you same people think 5.1 audio is a cheap gimmick and pointless?5.1 audio doesn't add to the story either.
IMHO, yes it's a gimmick, but if done right it's not a pointless one, especially for people who enjoy Stereo 3D. It's a different kind of experience. Some like it, some don't. I don't see the problem.
Film snobs annoy me.
but I'm dubious about this process until I see some example footage first

Parts of Aliens of the Deep used that technology that SW 3D will use. Some 2D ocean footage was converted into 3D.
Is there anyone that can tell which footage was real 3D and which was Dimensionalized in AotD?

I'm not sure I appreciate the subtle slam on my taste; however, Polar express was a bad movie made watchable by the 3D process.
There's no way I would have sat through that crappy hokem without the 3D effect. The technology is cool, not Polar Express.
Since the original Laserdiscs are out, and the 2004 DVD editions are widely available, I have absolutely no problem with one of my favorite film series being transferred to 3D format just for the cool factor alone.
SW is fun. 3D movies can be cool. It's not a stretch to think that combining the two could make for a great afternoon at the movies.
