February 10, 2012: The Day Star Wars: Episode I Will Be in 3-D

George Lucas‘ “latest perversion of [his] once loved accidental masterpiece” now has a release date.  Starting next February all six Star Wars movies will begin rolling out of the 3-D conversion process and into theaters, starting with The Phantom Menace.

Which I will probably go see.

But I’ll try to get someone else to pay for it.

Also:

Supervised by Industrial Light & Magic, the meticulous conversion is being done with utmost respect for the source material, and with a keen eye for both technological considerations and artistic intentions

Ahahahahaha.

Instead she stumbled into a great job: founding and running this very website (she's Editor at Large now, very fancy). She's spoken at events like Geek Girl Con, New York Comic Con, and Comic Book City Con, wants to get a Batwoman tattoo and write a graphic novel, and one of her canine teeth is in backwards.
