Revenge of the Sith.

That's the Title for Star Wars Episode III. I'm not really thrilled. Didn't like I, haven't even seen II. but something struck me.

Star Wars: A New Hope
Star Wars: The Phantom Menace

Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back
Star Wars: Attack of the Clones

Star Wars: The Return of the Jedi
Star Wars: The Revenge of the Sith

The same word count, and stylistically the same. The first film of each trilogy has a somewhat mysterious title. The second refers to combat and action, the third to a group that is coming back in some way.

Nice little touch there.

The more practical reason is that a certain other movie in production at that time was maybe going to be titled "The Revenge of Khan"...
