Unnecessary Gimmick of the Day: THR is reporting tonight that George Lucas is planning a 3-D re-release of all six Star Wars episodes, starting in early 2012.

From THR:

Part 1, “The Phantom Menace,” would be first out of star-dock in the early months of 2012. After that, each of the films would be released in order at the same time each consecutive year, depending on how well the first re-release does.

Each conversion takes at least a year to complete, with Lucas personally overseeing the process to make sure each one is as perfected as possible. Lucas has said that the “Avatar” experience convinced him that “Star Wars” was ready for the state-of-the-art 3D treatment.

So three years of re-purposed sacrilege, followed by three years of sacrilegious re-purposing. Can’t wait.

Make Like A Tree And Check This Out of the Day: Meticulous leaf carving artwork from Nature’s Art.

Natural leaf carving is actual manual cutting and removal of a leaf’s surface to produce an art work on a leaf. The process of carving is performed by artists using tools to carefully remove the surface without cutting or removing the veins.

There’s even a step-by-step leaf carving tutorial [pdf] if you are so inclined.
