    What was the original name of the Star Wars movie "The Return of the Jedi"?

    Question #95151. Asked by star_gazer. (Apr 28 08 1:39 PM)


    BRY2K

    The film was originally titled Revenge of the Jedi, and the original teaser trailer for the film carried this moniker.

    A released teaser poster created by Bill Pate containing the dismissed title has since become a rare collector's item. Of notice are the lightsaber colors on the teaser poster shown: Luke is seen wielding a red lightsaber while Vader wields a blue one.

    However, a few weeks before the film's premiere, Lucas changed the title, saying "revenge" could not be used, as Jedi do not seek revenge. The 2005 prequel trilogy film Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith later alluded to the dismissed title of Revenge of the Jedi.

    Welcome to my quiz about Danielle Steel's novel "Star". It is my favorite novel by her. It's actually been a while since I've read the book myself so my questions aren't too detailed or difficult. Enjoy!
