Star Wars in 3D

At the ShoWest convention in Las Vegas, George Lucas announced that he would be re-releasing the Star Wars     films in 3D. Although Lucas has not committed to any sort of time frame as to when the films will be released, it is known that he will be remastering all 6 of the films in 3D. The first of the films to be released will be A New Hope and then all the other will be released individually after that. could it be that Mr. Lucas is trying to cash in on the successes that Avatar has had with the 3D? The remaking of the Star Wars films in 3D will not be adding anything to the already amazing visual ambience of the film. It seems like the 3D would just be unnecessary bells and whistles. Even though i will kick and scream like a child in the grocery store all the way to the box, i will be buying my ticket right along with the rest of my fellow fan boys. But in the end, I guess we will just have to wait and see how Star Wars in 3D will turn out.
