The Best of #BadStarWars8Names on Twitter

Star Wars

Sometime on Tuesday, the hashtag #BadStarWars8Names began circulating around Twitter. This is a topic of some interest to me. I’ve talked about it at length on the Fighting In The War Room Star Wars Special podcast, wondering deeply what Rian Johnson’s next installment in the new trilogy would be subtitled.

On the podcast, we talked about a number of subtitles for Star Wars: Episode VIII, including the inspired “The March of the Lightsaber Brigade” and a few serious ideas. “The Last Jedi” being my personal favorite. Those who have seen the movie know where I’m going with it.

The Internet at large also brought out some good ones. One of them was even retweeted by Rian Johnson himself. I look forward to the deep dive on /Film about what that might mean:
