Maybe this is why he decided to release “Star Wars” on Blu-Ray this year.
According to actor Seth Rogen, George Lucas believes in the Mayan calendar and htat next year will be the end of the world.
Rogen says the topic came up during a conversation he had with Lucas and Steven Spielberg.
“George Lucas sits down and seriously proceeds to talk for around 25 minutes about how he thinks the world is going to end in the year 2012,” WENN quotes Rogen as saying. “He’s going on about the tectonic plates and all the time Spielberg is rolling his eyes, like, ‘My nerdy friend won’t shut up, I’m sorry…”
Rogen admitted that he initially thought Lucas was joking, adding: “I totally realised he was serious and then I started thinking, ‘If you’re George Lucas and you actually think the world is going to end in a year, there’s no way you haven’t built a spaceship for yourself. So I asked him, ‘Can I have a seat on it?'”
Rogen joked that he assumes Lucas as the Millennium Falcon waiting in a garage somewhere to escape the destruction.

So, George, if the world’s going to end, do you think we could get a BluRay edition of Star Wars digitally remastered and brought back to glory from the 1977 reels?
Woot! We can finally blast him into outer space and pirate his videos!
What about releasing the Star Wars Christmas special?
I feel sorry for him. Well not really. But buying into the Mayan hype is pure loony. They’re changing the calendar just like we did 3 weeks ago. We even have the date wrong. The world will not end in 2012.
WTF is Seth Rogen doing having a conversation with Lucas and Spielberg?
Are they working on a project?
Didn’t Lucas read the reports from today’s descendants of the Mayan Indians regarding the end of the world? Even they know that’s not what it means!
