It’s a question every Star Wars fan has asked themselves: How could George Lucas go from creating such enjoyable films like the original Star Wars trilogy and Indiana Jones to releasing the Star Wars prequels? This explains sooooo much.
Following up on the unfortunate promise that he’d release all six Star Wars movies in three dimensions, George Lucas has settled on February 10th, 2012 for the premiere of a 3D Episode I: The Phantom Menace. Subsequent titles will be released once per year, in order, which means we’ve got some time before there’s anything you’d actually want to pay $US16 bucks to see again.
Seems comedian Seth Rogen used comedic licence when recalling his conversation with Lucas about 2012′s doomsday. Never! Lucas’ rep did say however that George is “an adamant believer that the world is flat, that Stonehenge was built by aliens…”
How far would your jaw have dropped if George Lucas told you how he thinks the world will end next year? If you were comedian/actor Seth Rogen, you’d scoop your jaw up and then tell the world all about it.
Joining up with Bill Gates, George Lucas, Warren Buffett and 50 other billionaires, Zuckerberg has agreed to donate the majority of his wealth to charity, as part of the Giving Pledge movement Gates launched back in August.

Following last week’s news of a possible legal confrontation with George Lucas, Jedi Mind Inc has decided its worth spending $US9.99 on a new domain name rather than risk a $US5 million legal claim – it’s now called Mind Technologies “in order to avoid potential infringement of trademarks owned by Lucasfilm Ltd”. And the Jedi Mouse? That’s now the Mind Mouse. [Mind Technologies via PR Newswire]
It’s easy to laugh at George Lucas for suing people left, right and center, but when his latest target is a company calling itself “Jedi Mind Inc”, you can’t help side with the bearded movie maker. They’re asking for it.
