Lucas Converting ‘Star Wars Saga’ To 3D
By Nikki Finke at Deadline
This is big news and Lucafilm intends to make a big announcement about this long-awaited live-action Star Wars Saga conversion to stereoscopic 3D tomorrow. Can you imagine the Death Star trench run and the Tatooine Podraces in that format? Yikes! Plus, with Industrial Light & Magic supervising the project, led by John Knoll, this won’t just just another cheezy 3D conversion. According to tomorrow’s announcement, obtained by Deadline, ILM’s visual effects supervisor Knoll says, “Getting good results on a stereo conversion is a matter of taking the time and getting it right. It takes a critical and artistic eye along with an incredible attention to detail to be successful. It is not something that you can rush if you want to expect good results. For Star Wars we will take our time, applying everything we know both aesthetically and technically to bring audiences a fantastic new Star Wars experience.” Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace is expected to be released theatrically in 2012.

Jimmy speaks about his first supernatural flick
Joginder Tuteja, Bollywood Trade News Network
If there is one film maker for which Jimmy Sheirgill is really going gung-ho after a long time, it is first timer Hemanth Madhukar. The debutant director has called the shots for A FLAT, a horror flick that also stars Sanjay Suri other than Jimmy Sheirgill.
“The concept which Hemant brought to me was something really amazing”, Jimmy sounds animated here, “He was on a visit to Himachal (Pradesh) and on his return, he was dying to share this idea with me about a man who gets trapped in his own apartment. While this character first assumes this to be a technical issue with his doors and windows, he soon realises the supernatural and paranormal forces at work.”
