Celebrate Star Wars Day with Blu-ray news
Recommend
OK, fellow nerds: Don't miss this opportunity to wish your neighbor a Happy Star Wars Day.
And why is today Star Wars Day? It's all because of a simple pun that doubles as today's proper greeting: "May the Fourth be with you."
In related news, there really is a Star Wars headline worthy of celebration. Today it was revealed that the entire series will be released on Blu-ray in September. Hurrah.
Personally, I celebrated Star Wars Day a couple days early when I attended a screening of The People vs. George Lucas on Monday. The documentary chronicles several obsessed fans' love for the Force ... and subsequent anger with Lucas for creating the prequels.
Here's a trailer:
The doc covers everything from fan films to "Who shot first?" to Jar Jar Binks. Ultimately, Lucas isn't painted in a particularly pretty light for botching Episodes I-III and retooling IV-VI.
But you know what I wanted to do immediately after seeing the film? That's right -- I wanted to go home and watch Star Wars.
The People vs. George Lucas opens May 6 in New York with screenings scheduled throughout the summer.
