What else would you call it?

Post by lhs1701 » Tue Sep 05, 2006 5:36 pm

I have an interesting question, a fun question actually.

Now that most of us have watched Star Wars in all the 6 episodes.

Do you think the title "Star Wars" is appropriate? If not, what else do you think it could be called?

Or you would staunchly stand by the original name because you strongly feel that it is appropriate.

I often wondered if the title was meant to capture attention more than anything and would GL use the same title if he were to make Ep IV today noting the political climate all over the world?

I was thinking of that too. Star Wars doesn't really fit into the title. Maybe should be called "The Force" or "I am your Father", or "The Legend of Skywalker" or "The Backstroke Of The West" (viewtopic.php?t=1455).
Heh heh.

I think the title STAR WARS is still appropriate, because it is about wars amongst different star systems, and it happened amongst the stars. The title is also captivating, without giving any of the storyline away.

It could be named "Galactic Peace" for political correctness... and Force is such a forceful word, so perhaps "May the Gentleness be with you"...

Thankfully not.

It still fits nicely for me :P cause I've always felt that SW is essentially an epic tale about the struggle (war) between good & evil set amid the stars.
