STAR WARS: THE PHANTOM MENACE 3D Trailer Pre-rolls With THE THREE MUSKETEERS!

Well it seems like it has taken forever as George Lucas was waiting for a bar to be reached in total number of 3D screens deployed. But that day arrived over a year ago and he has been hard at work converting the six STAR WARS films to 3D since.

Now comes word that the STAR WARS: THE PHANTOM MENACE trailer will pre-roll in front of Paul W.S. Anderson's THE THREE MUSKETEERS when it parries into action on October 21.

About the only things about the two that they have in common is that they are 3D and the use of long handheld swinging weapons, but do we care? Not all that much - I just want to see this trailer after all this time!

Oh and Darth Maul did NOT die in Episode I apparently as he is in THE CLONE WARS in the spring of 2012. Here's the "bionic" statue of Darth Maul from our friends at Sideshow Collectibles, so perhaps we can expect that transition.

STAR WARS: THE PHANTOM MENACE hits screens February 10, 2012.
