Ok folks, time to get in line. While Episode II is still over a year away, Star Wars fever is already in full swing.

George Lucas, who is in England shooting various pick up shots and reshooting scenes that he wasn't happy with the first time around, was interviewed on a local TV show yesterday and dropped the biggest bomb to date: the title of Episode II. The newest installment of the franchise is TENTATIVELY titled "Star Wars: Episode II-The Shadow Falls" according to the interviewer, although those words never came out of Lucas' mouth directly.
