First Rumored STAR WARS: EPISODE VIII Titles Hit

Just a matter of time I suppose. As filming gets underway on the follow up to Star Wars: The Force Awakens in Dubrovnik, a couple of "official" titles for the movie have found their way online. There's probably no truth to either of 'em, but it's fun to speculate on the off chance...

Filming is officially underway for Rian Johnson's Star Wars: Episode VIII, and along with a batch of fairly unrevealing set snaps (well, aside from the Landspeeder above), we have the first of what are sure to be many rumored titles for the movie.

The first comes from some purported promotional material for the movie that was posted on Reddit, and is apparently being prepped for a May 4th (Star wars Day) reveal: Star Wars: Tale of the Jedi Temple. Hmmm... moving on. The next one sounds a bit more believable, and comes from a Croatian Star Wars news site. They reckon the title is: Star Wars: The Order of the Dark Side.

Both titles do make a certain amount of sense from a story continuation standpoint, and are slightly on the cheesy side - also a Star Wars staple. Still, take them with all the salt grains for the time being. If either did turn out to be the official title though, what would you think?
