Lucas sees the 3-D craze winding down and wants to take advantage of it.

The 3D craze is not winding down. Just wait until The Hobbit comes out in IMAX 3D at 48 fps and people feel like they're looking through a giant window into Middle Earth. From where I'm sitting, true 3D movies are just getting started.

I was under the impression that The Hobbit wasn't going to be 3-D. Avatar is the only evidence of 3-D doing anything interesting so far as I've seen, and I'm beyond sick of it. I'm with Mark Kermode on this one, 3-D can die a quick death. If someone wants to come along and show me an artistically interesting film in 3-D, I'm still waiting for it. In any case, it's academic. People will pay for the gimmick, Lion King proved it, and Star Wars will certainly cement it.

I'm not paying for it; hats for sure
Why would you pay for a hat instead?

I was tying on a smartphone on a 15 break, cut me some slack :P.
