Revenge of the Sith
Episode III Title Announced!
"This will be a day long remembered. It has seen the end of Kenobi, it will soon see the end of any speculation over the title of Episode III." Well okay, that’s not exactly how it goes but if Darth Vader were in the office today you can bet that’s what he’d be saying. Yes, you guessed it Jedi fans, the (extremely) long-awaited title for Episode III was finally announced this weekend at Comic Con and it is… (insert drumroll here) Star Wars - Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.

Sound familiar? Well it should. A few months back we had all our readers vote on the title they’d most like to see daubed on the final Star Wars film’s posters (don’t remember? click here) and, along with Rise of the Empire, Revenge of the Sith was by far and away the most popular. Yes, George has certainly got it right this time around.

"For some time now, the naming of a new Star Wars movie has taken on some special meaning among core fans, who love to take part in guessing games before a title is announced, and then engage in debate once it is," said Steve Sansweet, Lucasfilm’s Head of Fan Relations. "Let the debates begin." Sorry Steve but you may just be out of luck with this one. For the first time since the The Phantom Menace kicked up a rumpus in the fan community, we think it fairly safe to say that no one (and we mean no one) will have a bone to pick with Revenge of the Sith’s moniker. Not only does it sum up what we know of the plot quite nicely but it has a pleasing resonance with the last film in the original series (which, in case you’re a shamefully ill-informed Star Wars eejit, was originally called Revenge of the Jedi - until 'revenge' was deemed an inappropriate mindset for Jedi to be having).

According to starwars.com: "The Sith are masters of the dark side of the Force and the sworn enemies of the Jedi. They were all but exterminated by the Jedi a thousand years ago, but the evil order continued in secrecy. They operated quietly, behind the scenes, acting in pairs - a Master and an Apprentice - patiently biding their time before they could take over the galaxy. In Episode III, they'll finally exact their revenge on the Jedi. "
