The official site released the name today, Attack of the Clones, get used to AOTC folks....

They also had this to say about Episode 2:

Ten years after the events of The Phantom Menace, not only has the galaxy undergone significant change, but so have our familiar heroes Obi-Wan Kenobi, Padmé Amidala and Anakin Skywalker as they are thrown together again for the first time since the Trade Federation invasion of Naboo. Anakin has grown into the accomplished Jedi apprentice of Obi-Wan, who himself has transitioned from student to teacher. The two Jedi are assigned to protect Padmé whose life is threatened by a faction of political separatists. As relationships form and powerful forces collide, these heroes face choices that will impact not only their own fates, but the destiny of the Republic.

Yum...Here's the Official Announcement

Jeez.

It's a title. Might not be a best one, but it doesn't mean the movie isn't going to be good. In fact, I have several indications that it's going to be great.

yeah, it's growing on me too. At first it reminded me of "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes," but "Phantom Menace" always sounded like "Phatom of the Opera" to me, so oh well.

Beisdes, Star Wars Episode II: The Cone Wars would be rather redundant.

I doubt they are going to change it.

And whether or not I like the title or not does not give you any call to say I'm a jerk.

I stick by my original point that the title is not necessarily indicative of the movie content, and should not be treated as such.

I don't necessarily think it's the most creative title either. But is it really worth getting in a wad about the movie being good or not before it even comes out, just based on the title?

"Attack of the Clones"? *moans* Argh, I didn't like the title "The Phantom Menace" much, but I like this one even less. Here's to hoping the title is not indicative of the movie's quality...

Hey, no matter how much we hate the cheesy title, it's still Star Wars. And we need to stand firm. (By that I mean, don't admit to any of your non-fan friends how much you hate it! And DON'T let them make fun of it either...only we can do that.)

Uh-hh-hhh... guys....

Need I remind everyone that Star Wars in itself is a touch "campy," and was kinda sorta meant to be that? (The Original, "A New Hope")

I mean, serious sci-fi IT IS NOT, and never has been.

Campy title fits campy style... and puhleeze, this does NOT mean I don't like SW. I like it. I just take it for the grain of salt it is, and why get so upset about a title anyhoo?
