9:30AM Nick Broughall | I don’t know what’s worse: the fact that this video seems to be a few years old and I’ve only just seen it, or the fact that I actually wouldn’t mind watching a George Lucas remastered version of Singin’ in the Rain. Actually, I think the second one is worse. Much, much worse.

5:19AM Jesus Diaz | The rumour is that the greedy all-you-can-sell-and-eat alien entity known in Earth as George Lucas was preparing a new trilogy, all filmed in 3D digital. You can rejoice now, for there won’t be any new Star Wars movies in 3D. More »

Seriously, I can’t understand how Lucasfilm can approve the crap above and don’t do the best Star Wars promotional merchandise ever. Not even its lightsaber remote can save this cheapo TV from entering the ever-expanding Shitty Star Wars Merchandise Universe. More »

Those are our terms, and before anyone tries anything funny, remember that like half the Gizmodo staff knows karate–or as we call it at the dojo, karaté. [flickr via Newlaunches] More »
