My initial reaction to the title was “oof that’s weird… but it’ll probably grow on me.” Which is usually how it works. I certainly had initially negative reactions when I first learned of the ANH, TPM, and AOTC titles. In fact, ROTS is probably the only one that made me excited (the rest neutral). All have grown on me over time and I really kinda like them all now in their own way (well, maybe not AOTC).

Even now with TROS after a few hours I don’t feel so bad about it. The weirdest aspect is the grammar of it I think, it’s weird having “Skywalker” singular like that, but the idea of what that choice means really intruigues me. Ultimately too I like that they worked that name in (with this supposedly being the “end of the saga” and all).
