Focusing on Star Wars: Episode VII,
Lucasfilm Postpones Episodes II and III 3D
January 28, 2013
Lucasfilm has decided to postpone this fall's scheduled release of Star Wars Episodes II and III in 3D. Given the recent development that we are moving forward with a new Star Wars trilogy, we will now focus 100 percent of our efforts on Star Wars: Episode VII in order to ensure the best possible experience for our fans. We will post further information about our 3D release plans at a later date.
...ursprünglich war sogar 'mal die Rede von Wiederaufführungen aller 6 (bisher abgedrehter) Star Wars Episoden (wobei die Episoden II + III bereits feste Kino-Start-Termine für 2013 hatten).
Allerdings stammt dieses Versprechen noch aus der Zeit "bevor es dunkel wurde in der Welt, ...vor dem Imperium" *) (= Disney).
