'Revenge of the Sith' 3D to Debut at Star Wars Celebration in April

"Once more, the Sith will rule the galaxy." You might remember a few years ago, back before Star Wars: The Force Awakens was even a reality, there was a plan to release the prequel trilogy, converted into 3D, into theaters over three consecutive years. However, The Phantom Menace was the only one that made it to the big screen, and plans to release the other two episodes were scrapped once Disney bought Lucasfilm and started putting together their own Star Wars plans. But if you're attending Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim in April, you'll have a chance to see the whole prequel trilogy in 3D, and the rest of the saga too.

StarWars.com has just revealed that Revenge of the Sith will be screened in 3D for the first time at Star Wars Celebration, which runs from April 16th-19th (you can still get tickets here). Episode III will be screening along with the 3D versions of The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones, as well as the original Star Wars trilogy (though not in 3D) throughout the weekend. Still no word on whether or not we'll see Episode II and Episode III re-released in theaters in 3D, but with a whole year left before The Force Awakens hits theaters, we're hoping that some kind of Star Wars marathon plan will come together, but only if 20th Century Fox can come to some sort of agreement with Disney.

I refuse to spend another dollar on that crappy prequel trilogy....

  oh taking an original stand there are ya?
  - TheOct8pus
    
    Dude, those movies are shit, and the fact that Lucasfilm plans to release them in theaters at full price is awful.
- Jackie Jormpjomp
  
  Ooooh, so edgy. Add it to your fan fic where people give a f*ck.

    If you don't give a fuck, then why did you comment? This section is where people voice their opinions. Not everybody has to give a fuck, and if you don't, ignore and move on. I could give you 50 reasons why these movies are total pieces of shit, but you're obviously some sort of prequel fanboy judging by all your comments...

I kinda want to do this. Those movies are fun, idgaf.
- Jackie Jormpjomp
  
  Agreed
Mike Zarquon

I was looking forward to see Episodes IV,V and VI in 3D. They would all be worth it.
Jason Scarpelli

I'd rather watch my dog crap in 3-D.
- Jackie Jormpjomp
  
  Great. Do that.
- Richard Abella
  
  I would pay to see Jason's dog shit in 3D on Jackie over there.
Carpola

It's like a magical money fountain.
Kento

Does anyone know what kind of theater they show these in? I would go but I can't sit for 12 hours on a folding chair in an auditorium if that's what it is... I have a broken back.
- Ethan Anderton
  
  I don't think they're showing them all in a row. But I also don't know where they're showing them either, so I can't effectively answer your question.

Seriously, i know its a super dead dead horse but i have already erased this trilogy out of my mind. It has some of the worst dialog, cg and acting known to man kind. If it weren't for Marcia Lucas (she saved SW in the editing room because it was evidently a mess) and Irvin Kershner, the OT would be crap too. Looking forward to the new movie on my birthday this year however!
- Jackie Jormpjomp
  
  Uh. Right.
- TheOct8pus
  
  The bottom line is that the OT worked and the prequels were shit
DAVIDPD

Yeah, although this was my favorite of the new trilogy, I will pass on seeing this.
- Jackie Jormpjomp
  
  Oh.
