George Lucas just [announced](http://www.starwars.com/episode-ii/news/2001/08/news20010806.html) the name of the 2nd Star Wars prequel, The Attack of the Clones. Is it just me, or is that a really cheesy title? Then again, Phantom Menace was a pretty cheesy movie, so maybe it’ll fit well.

. . . since the topic is apparently so prevalent in these boards, shouldn’t we open up an Attack Of The Clones thread in ATMB as well?

🙂
