Well when you consider how many times Lucas seems to want to edit ANH it would fit quite well.

Seriously the names of star wars movies has been getting worser. The Phantom Meneace was kind of ok since it sounded like a star wars title. But Attack of the Clones ? How could George Lucas come up with a title like that ? If this is the scheme of the things to come I would not be surprised if Episode 3 is indeed called "in production". From a sarcastic point of view "in production" is quite correct since the Empire's will be in the making in Episode 3.

"Attack of the Clones" has the exact same ring as "The Empire Strikes Back."

Indeed it does.

In my opinion, the titles for the films are of the same quality that they were two decades ago.

The titles are fine. They all describe the main focus of the movie quite well, as it happens.

ANH--Luke is obviously the 'New Hope'.
TESB--The Empire kicks the Rebel's butts.
ROTJ--Luke returns from his defeat at Bespin as a Jedi and faces down Vader one last time.
TPM--The menace of Palpatine is revealed; he is hidden however, thus the 'Phantom' bit.
AOTC--The Clone Wars.

I fail to see how they are getting worse at all.

Rose colored glasses. Say "The Empire Strikes Back" over and over for a while. Get beyond your initial reaction to it and actually look at what it says.

Maybe you are right. But I expected something different than "attack of the clones". What you said is correct, the names do correctly describe the moives well. But to me a cool name sounds better than an accurate one.

Exactly my point. Both sound pretty damn corny to a newbie. I remember the first time I heard TESB, I thought it was a 50's B flick.

My only problem with EP II is the wording of the title. I thought the clones were the "bad guys" when I first heard what the title was going to be. It should be: EP II: The clones that saved the Jedi's asses.

Because Rise of the Machines was taken.
