Lucasfilm announced to 3Dize the movie 'Star Wars' series.

It is a series with many scenes that looks like 3D, such as Death Star's flying flight at Episode IV and Pod race at Episode I's planet Tatooen, and the 2D film is released to the public at present The 3D conversion of "Star Wars" in the situation was rather late.

First it seems that Episode I "Phantom Menace" will be released in 2012, but the schedule is not fixed yet.

John Knoll, visual effect supervisor by Industrial Light & Magic (IL & M), who is in charge of special effects, says, "For a successful 3Dization, carefully check the details with a critical and artistic eye If you expect good results, hurrying is counterproductive.In order for you to see the new "Star Wars", we take time to do all the artistic and technological I am going to pour the power of it. "

Speaking of "Star Wars", there were originally 9 ideas, and the former trilogy was made in the late 1970s and 1980s, but at that time SFX technology it is very important to make the images that George Lucas sought Production stops there because it can not be done. As technology caught up in the 1990s, we have remembered the former trilogy as a "special edition" with new technology, and then created a new trilogy.

Considering the commitment of Lucas, it seems that 2D → 3D conversion technology has reached a level where you can realize "Star Wars 3D" you wanted, so you have tried 3D. Even when I saw "Special Edition", I realized the advancement of technology and I was impressed by the additional scenes, but what kind of impression does it really give me in 3D?
