"Revenge of the Sith"

Rather predictably this has been confirmed as the title for Star Wars Episode 3.. Sounds alot like Return of the Jedi, which was going to be Revenge of the Jedi to start off with, before Lucas decided Revenge was bad and Jedis wouldn't do it. Or something. Anyway, there you go. Still not out for about a year..

I have high hopes it will be better than Episode I/II. It better be.

well you learn something new every day...

He made a lot of good films as a producer after Star Wars (Indiana Jones, Willow) but what did he actually direct himself after A New Hope?

Wasn't necessarily talking about the Star Wars movies thought, he made some good films before them (and after them).

I haven't even seen the second one

Lucas didn't direct V and VI...

I can't help but think Episode III is going to be the worst of the lot. I mean, there's so much to do, it's going to be difficult to wrap it all up in a satisfying fashion (and Lucas isn't exactly the director he once was). I'm sure there'll be lots of cool imagery, the clothing and the machinery all edging nearer to the styles of A New Hope, but the actors have become the least important part of the story.

NOW I'm excited. :D

If only for the prospect of a thousand Jar Jar's saying "To me, to you" which drives Darth Vader to despair.

I heard there was a Gunjun island where they'd cloned Jar Jar Binks into an "Unstoppable Army of Annoyance" (TM Monkey_man), and they kill all the Jedi through their Clouseau-esque clumsiness. On-set rumours have likened it to The Ice Pirates meets Chucklevision.

Bah - double post.
