    I think that this would be a fantastic title for Episode VIII, but I would drop 'Sith' from the end to make it flow better. Think about it, 'Star Wars: Episode VIII, The Rise of the Forgotten' just sounds amazing.

    I take your point, the sith end to the title might be to obvious, there is a ring to it.

    My two cents:

    -The word "Rise" (or "Arise") is definitely due. Optionally, plural or present tense verb, with an "S". "Birth" or "Rebirth" could work too. But...

    -"Attack/Clones" and "Empire/Strikes Back" are the previous two middle chapters, both of which refer to the dominant political/military force in the Galaxy, which are commiting violent, or powerful, thematically-important actions against the lesser force or group.
    II: [Action] of the [Group]
    V: The [Group] [Actions] Back
    I would say "Back" is part of the action, and therefor probably isn't that important to the system.

    -Also important, I think, is the state of the Galaxy at the end of the trilogies' first acts. A New Hope puts the Rebellion in a better spot against the Empire, but the Empire is still dominant, putting them in the next film's title. The Phantom Menace ends with the Sith in a seat of "Supreme" authority in the Republic, leading to the next required step in the plans of the dominant power. For the Republic and Empire both, this was keeping a weaker power from becoming an equal force, whether that is the TF/CIS, or the Rebellion.

    -The theme and direction of the trilogy is key to guessing the next titles.
    For both the OT and PT, act II was a problem for the good guys. The Clones were a tool for Palpy's evil plan, and the Empire is obvious.

    -Assuming the theme is the same as it was in George's earlier notes, which was rebuilding, moral and philosophical problems, and passing on what you've learned, the opposition to the good guys is going to be the roadblock of Galactic unrest, which in a moral/philosophical sense would probably be the Dark Side itself, which as a force of nature has one goal: To sew strife.

    Sorry for the "TL;DR" post, just thought we'd make better guesses if the pattern/history was laid bare.

    Anyway, action words that fit this pattern could include "Clash", which could work if the Resistance and First Order are equally dominant, and "onslaught", as in "Dark Side Onslaught".

    Dark Side Onslaught and The Dark Side Rises (Yeah, unfortunately too close to The Dark KNIGHT Rises) are as good as I can think of, sadly. But we have plenty of pattern and precedent to make some educated guesses here!

    Dark Side Emergent?
    Dark Force Rising?

    I think the "Attack" or "Strike" aggression is made up for by the fact the Dark Side is inherrently aggressive.

    Pretty solid Episode VIII title! I can definitely see that one.
    I don't think the word "Jedi" will get repeated though.

    1.The Phantom Menace 2.Attack of the Clones 3.Revenege of the Sith
    4.A New Hope 5.The Empire Strikes Back 6.Return of the Jedi

    Now I am thinking the next set of three will be similar to these 6.
    7.The Force Awakens 8.Fury of the Dark 9.Redemption of the Light

    Every Star Wars title is unique, SW8 will be not about *siths*.

    First trilogies episodes :
    I : The *Phamtom* (sith) *menace* / IV : A *new* (Jedi) *Hope* / VII :The *force* *awakens*

    Second trilogies episodes :(duel)
    II : *Attack* of the *clones* / V : *Empire* *Strikes Back* / VIII : The *First Oder* *crusade* (or Crusade of the dark knights )

    Third trilogies episodes :
    III : *Revenge* of the *sith*/ VI : *Return* of the *Jedi* / IX : *Rebirth* of the *chosen one*

    Prequels : About siths and Clones (They are with the republic)
    Originals : About Jedi and Empire
    Sequels : About the Force ? and Knights?


    In the time of greatest despair,
    a child shall be born
    who will destroy the Sith
    and bring balance to the Force

    I like Star Wars Episode VIII: End of the Resistance, because it definately fits the dark theme for the middle episode of each trilogy. Also its implication could be taken both ways with the First Order crushing the Resistance or the Resistance wins, thus disbands, and forms a new republic or something else.
