That would be an interesting title.

 

[Tom Hendricks]

I'm not saying its not, but that doesn't sound right to me. Sounds like a comic book or novel title.

 

[Awesome Possum]

Reminds me of the old kid's game show, Tales of the Hidden Temple. I hope there is a giant talking stone head.

 

[The Wormhole]

I'm not saying its not, but that doesn't sound right to me. Sounds like a comic book or novel title.

My thoughts exactly. And honestly, it just doesn't feel right as a movie title.

 

[Mr Light]

Way too long. Not grabby. Fake.

 

[HIjol]

Chilled Wookie Brains?

 

[Commander Richard]

I remember when the leaked title for Episode II was "Tyranny Reborn".

I'm not saying it's related to this, but...

That just doesn't really seem to fit with the style of titles the other movies have used.

 

[ancient]

eeeh sounds made up.

 

[dahj]

Doesn't sound right.
"Tale" particularly sticks out and is a word that would never be in the title methinks.

 

[WarpFactorZ]

I have no horse in this race (aside from posting the OP), but IIRC "The Force Awakens" was met with similar skepticism here for "not sounding right."

 

[Mr Light]

Force Awakens wasn't the greatest title, but at least it was short and suggested an action rather than telling of a story

Isn't the Star Wars saga the telling of a story? [I assume that's your point].

 

[Mr Light]

What I mean is, "Tales of the Jedi Temple" doesn't connote action or crisis. It sounds like a couple of old folks sitting around a fire telling young whipper snappers about something that happened a thousand years ago. Where's the menace, the attack, the revenge?

 

[Richard Baker]

Sounds more like a book series than a movie title.

 

[BillJ]

Wasn't someone claiming "The Order of the Dark Side" was the title sometime ago?

 

[Mach5]

I wish people would stop posting links to sites like movieplot.com. There are tons of garbage clickbait sites on the Internet, but movieplot is among some of the worst story-fabricators I've ever encountered.

I think that is the title of one of the Disneyland events involving younglings learning how to use a lightsaber against the Seventh Sister.
