The key problem, as I see it, is finding a title that fits with the BE / RTJ theme without straight-out copying either. Titles such as...
Forging Star Wars
and
"Assembling Star Wars"
...are okay, but I think they would feel like you just took your "Building" part of BE and went to thesaurus.com to find a synonym. The nice thing about RTJ is it doesn't do that; it's not called "Constructing Jedi." It plays on the film title, but it does so in a different manner.
Of course, by this logic, I'd have to throw out a host of other acceptable-but-BE-sounding titles: "Shaping Star Wars," "Launching Star Wars," "Undertaking Star Wars," "Inventing Star Wars," "Developing Star Wars," etc.
And you'd have to get rid of anything that was too similar to RTJ. And, I'd get rid of this stuff too:

They do the job, but they're obvious, and not as clever as BE or RTJ.
I was trying to come up with something that relayed, basically, "creating the beginning of a saga." I came up with a couple of cool ones, like "Embarking on Star Wars," but I think the fewer words you use, the better. If you can do the title in three words, you're gold. I toyed with "Imagining Star Wars," but the film really won't just be about imagining Star Wars-- it will be about making it.
So, the best I've been able to come up with so far is: "Realizing Star Wars"
I dunno, feel free to disregard my long-winded rants about your title.
