It has the right rhythm. That's the thing about Lucas titles (at least SW/Indy): the seem to have their on metre--they're almost poetic.
Star Wars Episode 7 title revealed - "The Force Awakens"
- Thread starter Candlelight
- Start date
Quit whining. It's not Attack of the Clones.
Star Wars only hit us because it loves us, baby, we know that!
If you were responding to me, I'm O.K - I don't like the E.U. !
If you weren't - ignore me...
Seems to me most people are just having some fun with it rather than seriously whining or being cynical. At the end of the day it's just a title and doesn't affect the outcome of the film (unless the studio screws up and causes a bad promotional situation like Tom Cruise's last film which started as All You Need is Kill based on the book and was renamed Edge of Tomorrow for the theatrical release and then sort of renamed for the home version which had the tagline Live-Die-Repeat promoted more heavily, causing confusion).
Me, it just struck as sounding sort of like a coffee commercial slogan.
^ That's more like Star Wars: The Force Wakes You Up
I think it's a weak title, but so is 'A New Hope.'
I kind of suspect this is meant to parallel that. To sound more like a setup than the story being propelled forward/ending, like Empire/Jedi.

ANH totally is a weak title, and it's never grown on me, unlike TESB. Granted, it's too soon to know, but I like the theory of a parallel in titular structures with the OT.
Sick avatar, Locutus!

He's really happy to see the new movie.
The Roman numerals are starting to get too complicated. 
Besides, what happens when they get to Episode Ten. Imagine Locutus's avatar then.

Regarding the lack of "Episode VII," it'll still be there in the opening crawl, they're just going back to the OT style of marketing the films with their actual titles, rather than the PT style of emphasizing the episode number.
They'll just do what the NFL is doing. Instead of calling the fiftieth championship game Super Bowl L (following the tradition of using Roman numerals for every game), they're calling it Super Bowl 50.The Roman numerals are starting to get too complicated.

I think you're supposed to see a physician if your Force awakens for more than four hours.
That may explain the announcement of the "Darth Viagra" character.
