    I think its a great title. It just beter have a big braveheart like clash between the Jedi and the Clones!

    kinda sounds like one of those 50's horror movies

    I honestly think they should have picked a movie title like "Starwars Episode II The Clone Wars" now that sounds like a good ol starwars movie title dont it :)

    If he did something like that, then he could get sued by Marvel.

    but even so, anything is better than Attack of the clones!!!!!!!!!!

    Wow. In 4 little words, Mr Lucas has destroyed any hopes I had that Ep2 might be decent...somehow "Jar-jars Big Adventure" doesnt sound quite so humorous anymore.

    Seriously... Good GOD that title sucks!!
  • telarium on 07 Aug, 2001, 18:49…
    How about, "The Emperor's New Clones"

    It works on so many levels.

    The Return of the Menacing Strike Attacks of the Empire's Jedi Clones!

    We just need to cleanse the "real" fans from the ones who will run at the first sign of a cheesy title ;-)

    Star Wars Episode 3: Super Wars 58

    You are truly the king of the reminders.
  • Professor Yoda on 07 Aug, 2001, 08:08…
    Yeah, when I first saw it I thought it must be some kind of joke. An open statement to Lucasfilm: even though you've already announced the title, I don't think most of the fans would mind if you changed it.
  • QueZTone on 07 Aug, 2001, 07:49…
    hmm Stormtroopers make StarWars somehow. So the title is kind of appropriate since clearly Mr.Anakin-bastard-who-will-get-it-on-with-the-oh-so-lovely-natalie-portman will create some masterplan of cloning Stormtroopers....Attack of the Clones *raises arms and starts "bwaaaah!"-ing*

    Attack of the Clones? ha ha ha! Your kidding? What the hell was Lucas smoking when he thought of THAT one?

    What next? 'Plan 9 from far far away' Why not just simply 'clone wars' ANYTHING but something so B-Movie sounding!
  • Remi O on 07 Aug, 2001, 02:29…
    As I said earlier - they just need the artist who did the EMI cover to do the movie poster, and their marketing campaign is set...
  • spaff on 07 Aug, 2001, 03:56…
    Hahahaha! (this is Jake, but I have discovered spaff left himself logged in here a month ago. thank god for cookies)
  • mercatfat on 06 Aug, 2001, 22:38…
    At least it's an original title.
  • TaXicab on 06 Aug, 2001, 22:36…
    Its not april already, is it? Man how time flies...
  • Guybrush Threepwood on 06 Aug, 2001, 22:31…
    It's a very stupid title! It's sooo stupid! I don't think that the great George Lucas had this stupid idea! Bleah! :-P
  • Remi O on 06 Aug, 2001, 21:49…
    It's not like ep. 1 had the hottest name either... "The Phantom Menace"... First time I heard that, I was expecting another Dennis The Menace movie.
  • penbrook on 06 Aug, 2001, 21:27…
    That whole movie better revolve around the idea of an actual attack of clones to make sense...and i doubt that it does. i believe that it isn't correct..but it did come from the site. ill believe it when i see it in lights. oh yea and its a stupid name.
  • RappScallion on 06 Aug, 2001, 20:28…
    "Attack Of The Clones" Bwahahahaha ha ha!!!
  • Metallus on 06 Aug, 2001, 20:06…
    It's a fake. It's gotta be.
  • Rummy on 07 Aug, 2001, 07:25…
    Oh its real alright The Starwars Homing beacon email even says it... and thier Home Page has it written all over the place
  • mameluke on 06 Aug, 2001, 19:06…
    It's not THAT bad. It's a throwback to the old sci-fi films that Star Wars was inspired by. Sort of an homage. And when you think about it, The Empire Strikes Back, A new Hope, Return of the Jedi - those aren't the greatest titles either. I just think "Attack" could have been changed.
  • Jake on 06 Aug, 2001, 21:36…
    Don't even try and defend it.
  • mameluke on 06 Aug, 2001, 23:01…
    Why not? I said it's not THAT bad. It's not THAT good either. There's soooooo many titles which would have been good. It sounds way too cheesy to fit in with the storyline. And it has "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes" written all over it.
