George Lucas strikes again, not strikes back

It's times like this I'm glad I'm a Star Trek fan, because if Gene Roddenberry had fudged with his franchise the way George Lucas continues to do so with Star Wars, I would have jumped ship years ago. Because now, according to IMDb, George Lucas has another card up his sleeve for Darth Vader and company:

Jeffrey Katzenberg, who is a major advocate of theatrical 3-D films, has disclosed that George Lucas is investing in a technology that could turn all of his Star Wars movies into 3-D features that could be given new releases.

I can hear the collective groaning of Star Wars fans everywhere. Because you just know this opens the door to the possibility of more special editions! And for the record, when was the last time any movie was presented in 3-D? Didn't they try that with Jaws 3 way back in the mid-80s with disastrous results? Or does George Lucas just have too much time on his hands and no creativity left that he has to keep fudging with Star Wars?
