Titles That Were Not Used for Star Wars III

Back in 2002, Star Wars movie-watchers were in a state of shell-shock. We'd seen two very lousy movies recently, and were contemplating ways that the third movie of that trilogy could manage to be even worse. And so a thread arose on the Straight Dope Message Board, in which various people made up funny titles for then then still-forthcoming third movie. These were mine:

Star Wars (R): Episode III A Plague of Darths

Star Wars (R): Episode III Darth Darth Baby

Star Wars (R): Episode III Ewok Mania!

Star Wars (R): Episode III Why Should We care About These Annoying, Stuck-Up Jedi Knights, Anyway?

Star Wars (R): Episode III Eat the Happy Meal, Buy The Toy

Star Wars (R): Episode III Lots of Things Blow Up

Star Wars (R): Episode III Hi, My Name Is George Lucas, and You'll See Any Damn Thing I Put Out, No Matter How Stupid, Won't You?

Star Wars (R): Episode III Jar Jar -- Jedi!

Star Wars (R): Episode III Democracy Is Over-rated; Let's Let Some Robed Zen Idiots Rule the Universe

and, my personal hope:

Star Wars (R): Episode III Mace Windu, Funky Jedi
