Welp. You know the deal. Pretty much anything Star Wars. The good, bad, and ugly. Mostly bad and ugly, though.

Today I learned that The Force Unleashed was released on PlayStation 2. How the hell did I miss that? Sure, it's a wildly different version with reused BF2 assets, but still. Kinda neat.

...I guess we should be glad there isn't a T in there. Otherwise, I'd scrap VII right now.
What was the working title of Episode II: Attack of the Clones? Answer: Due to much of the animosity aimed towards Jar-Jar Binks in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999), the working title of Episode II was "Jar-Jar's Big Adventure".
...Notice how that is due to, not despite. Or, perhaps, can be better described as "in spite of." <_<

Since the 7 discussion thread died...
It looks like we finally have a title for Episode 7:
I'm...underwhelmed. Like seriously, who thought that was a good title?

Revenge of the Sith was pretty bland, and everyone thought Attack of the Clones was a joke for the first few months after it was announced. Give it two years and it won't stand out any more than these two.

"Revenge of the Sith," much like the rest of the decent parts of the movie, was just a blatant nostalgia/trivia grab.

I think ambiguous morality and complex ethical decisions are way too much to hope for from SW; I was thinking something more mundane, like boring regular office work.

Star Wars: Stanley is absolutely forbidden due to the RPG consequences. I have enough problems telling people their characters don't know things they don't know, and no disembodied voice will quietly whisper every single Imperial access code into their ear, allowing them to "guess it randomly."

My gut said "disimprove" but my Latin said dis- and im- on the same word is a no-no, and "disprove" has a very different meaning.

Another point for Star Wars subtlety. I suppose it is a little less transparent than "Grievous" or "Loathsome."

Shiva the Destroyer actually seems more appropriate, except Shiva isn't evil despite being a semi-apocalyptic god.
