LMAO... really though. I told most of my friends about it and they hate the title. I mean I really think they couldnt of picked a more crappy title (within reason, that is). It sounds like some shitty b-movie from the 60's.

Well, I suppose that clears that up. Lucas is mad, and must be stopped.

The following conversation transpired earlier today:
Burkebhamblin: Uh..."Star Wars Episode II: Attack Of The Clones"??? Um, ok, sure. Shikishima: WHAT?!? Burkebhamblin: That's the OFFICIAL title, per Starwars.com Shikishima: How 1957 Roger Corman. Burkebhamblin: Haha...no kidding Shikishima: I see Lucas sitting there at a desk with books behind him a la Orson Welles of the narrator from "Rocky Horror" in B&W as a theremin plays over him while he arches his eyebrows hypnotically... Burkebhamblin: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Shikishima: "The tale I am about to tell you is not for the light of heart to hear or skilled of acting to perform....." Burkebhamblin: Oh man...my gut hurts Shikishima: Oh, wait! He'd have to be overdubbed by Rob Paulsen, too...the guy who does the voice for The Brain & who did Orson Welles & Kirk Douglas on "The Critic"... Burkebhamblin: Hahahaha...dammit Shikishima: As a young Anakin is dressed like Wally Beaver, with Amidala as his poodle-skirt girlfriend... Shikishima: And Obi-wan as the professor with tweed sportcoat with leather elbow patches, beard, & a pipe. Shikishima: And perhaps a monocle.

It's not like Star Trek: the Motion Picture, The Search for Spock, and the Voyage Home were creative titles, either. The SW Insider gives a lot of info, and from the looks of it, the movie will be better than TPM. Jar Jar will have a different (hopefully smaller) role, says Steven J. Sansweet.

Uh huh. Will this be before or after Lucas' mothership, carefully concealed behind the comet Hale-Bopp, comes to aid in our ascension to the Level Beyond Human?

Add "Killer" to that and it would be perfect. Star Wars: Episode 2-Attack of the Killer Clones.
See, the problem isn't that it's not terribly creative. The other titles are fairly straightforward too. The problem is that it doesn't sound like any of the other titles. All the other titles at least had a level of seriousness to them. This one sound like pure camp. And it's supposed to be more serious than the first one.
Me no like. To me it sounds like one of those things where everyone in the office disagrees, but the boss has made up his mind so that's the way it's going to be. My office is like that
