And the title of Episode III is...

[CrusaderX]

Yeah, but I'm not really convinced that it does so on purpose. Then again, I'm also not much of a fan of Campbell's thesis. I think it's almost too vague; it's too easy to fit stories into the Campbell Path of the Hero. It's just a requirement of good storytelling that many of his commonalities will occur.

Campbell's thesis is extremely vague. Just about any story can be made to fit into it. There was a thread on these boards awhile back that illustrated this perfectly, by showing how the Rocky II movie could be an example of Campbell's thesis, complete with appropriate roles for Rocky, Mickey, and Mr. T.

Episode III: The final one 'cuz George Lucas is getting old and senile.

 

[David Howery]

Suppose it'll be called, "Star Wars: This One Will Be Good...Really!"?

I've wondered if ol' George might not spring one more SW movie on us after Ep. 3, even though it would be out of numerical sequence. I'm no expert on the SW timeline, but it seems to me there is a huge gap between 3 and 4 where lots of stuff happens. At the end of 3, Anakin turns to evil, and the Empire is just starting up. At the beginning of 4, Luke is already an adult, and the rebellion has been going on for some time. The intro to 4 mentions the rebels striking out from a hidden base and winning their first victory. Plus, the Death Star is being built between the movies, and the plans for it get stolen and given to Leia. So, all this makes me wonder if an out of sequence movie might be done showing all this stuff....

Actually, there's rumors of a Star Wars TV show covering this period.

Star Wars Episode 3.5?

I doubt it'd be The Creeping Fear; that'd've made sense for Episode 2, since it fit with the events of that movie and continued the theme from Episode 1, but when Episode 3 deals with the wholesale slaughter of the Jedi order...no. That's a fear that just isn't creeping.

Revenge of the Sith and Fall of the Jedi work for me, though.

YES thats 2 votes for Fall of the Jedi. Slowly building momentum.

Anyone think this is a good time to put up a poll for this?

I'll post one after I get a few responses so I don't miss anyone's title guess. I'm only going to post the ones that people will actually think can be the title. Okay, we have so far:

The Creeping Fear
Fall of the Jedi
Balance of the Force
Rise of the Empire
Revenge of the Sith
Mask of the Sith
Fall of the Republic

Any I missed?

Episode III: This Isn't the Movie You're Looking For.

I'm probably never even going to bother to see it after the first two. Years of therapy might get me to forget they were ever even made.
