So, immediately ignoring all those rules of what a Star Wars title is, but that's because this isn't just a regular film. This isn't merely Episode IX, it's the end of everything. It's the last time we'll see Luke and Leia; it'll be the last movie to feature Skywalkers at all.

Given Disney are looking to bounce back from a split in the fandom and ensure everyone goes to see what, what better way to capture the sense of this being a true 'can't miss' event than having the title be as bold and to the point as possible. Star Wars: The End.

It tells you absolutely everything you need to know, and gives off a sense of dread alongside urgency. It might be a bit too similar to Avengers: Endgame, but then given how that film is likely to rake in another $2bn, it's also a convention that works.
