Star Wars fans to feel force of 3D

THE entire Star Wars film saga is going to be shown in another dimension – 3D, director George Lucas announced yesterday.

The Jedi will initially return in the eye-popping format in 2012, with the 1999 prequel Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace, before the remaining films follow.

Lucas was never a fan of 3D but is thought to have changed his mind about the technology following the advances made with big-screen hits like Avatar and Alice In Wonderland.
