    No rush really. Celebration is right around the corner and that seems the best place to have a title reveal. I do not like Marvel movies and do not follow the buzz around them in the slightest but even I could feel the anticipation for that title reveal. Star Wars may be aiming to something similar (I hope not)

    What if we really don't get the title reveal until Celebration Chicago?

    I feel like it would be incredibly hard to keep it under wraps for that long, particularly when preparing for an event... but imagine how impressive it would be for us to not even get the film's title until the end of the trailer!

    That's not true. People seem to forget that all previous titles were announced AFTER shooting was finished.
    - TFA was announced in November (2014) after principal photography was finished.
    - TLJ was announced in January (2017) after shooting was finished.
    - EPIX is almost done shooting. So when will we get the title for that one? ;D

    The Force Awakens The Last Jedi Lords of the Beyond? Now THAT'S a cool combination of titles. Which, while unintentional, makes me really want to see a movie about the Jedi Lords. Like aristocratic Jedi or something.

    Aristocratic Jedi? Didn't we get that in the prequals? Walking around their temple with marble floors and statues?

    Yes we've heard this one a thousand times before but I'm going to go ahead and make this title and the color of the logo my final choice for nine despite the use of the word force already having been used. It's the perfect title to close out the saga and the purple logo is obviously the combination of red and blue which we all know represent the light and the dark side. The return of the force being understood as a whole once again (balance) via the Journals of the Whills that was definitely explored in TLJ.

    That is a pretty boring title for me. I would prefer we hit some cool buzz words that have never been used before. Hope this is false. It came from an anonymous source on Reddit so that is always a good place to source.

    Honestly, I agree that it would be the perfect title to end the saga with. It’s been what all nine episodes have ultimately been about.
    And if I recall correctly, wasn’t it rumoured at one point for The Phantom Menace too?
    The only thing that makes me have doubt that they’d name it this is because Force has already been used in this same trilogy.

    Balance of the Force just seems a little bland to me, especially for a supposed saga finale.

    Two times "force" in one trilogy? Nah, JJ can do better than that. Furthermore this title sounds boring. I want a title who has something to do with the actual movie, especially with a character.

    "The Force Awakens" referred to Rey.
    "The Last Jedi" referred to Luke.
    Now it's Kylo's time.

    Legacy or Destiny both work well.

    me wonders if 'An Ancient Threat' (a rumored title for TFA at one point) is back on the table with those recent MSW rumors

    As a title, it's definitely got my interest.

    But I'm worried that, like Attack of the Clones, maybe it sounds a little too pulpy? It just doesn't quite have that "Star Wars" je ne sais quoi to me.

    edit: I'm curious- if anyone out there feels the same way as I, does changing it to "The Ancient Threat" change your opinion on it?

    I almost feel like it might, for me. Strange, especially considering how "A New Hope" definitely doesn't follow that logic anyway..

    I don't disagree that it would be cool to get the title with a teaser trailer, but I can't see a scenario where [Ep. IX Title] ISN'T plastered all over Celebration... it's their first hugely public opportunity to have those few words featured everywhere and ingrain them into our minds. And IMHO there's no way they can create that much physical marketing without someone leaking it first.
