  1. I have my doubts that both rumors about the movies in 3D are true. It seems unlikely we will have Attack of the Clones moved up six months and this coming out on Blu-ray in 3D at the same time. While it is like Lucasfilm to cross promote, it just seems a bit much for them.

  2. I really don’t know if making red tails makes up for all the blatantly racist stereotypes he put in episode one, but it’s a good start.
