Other than plot, one of the big mysteries involving the next Star Wars movie has been what it will be titled. Well, today, Entertainment Weekly has solved that mystery.

The next film will be titled "The Force Awakens." As the report notes, this new detail comes on the heels of the movie finishing its final day of shooting. Obviously, there's a lot of post-production in the horizon.

As you may remember, the movie is slated to be released on Dec. 18, 2015. For all of you keeping count at home, there's still 406 days until that particular date.

The debate will rage about the title, but it's a better title than The Phantom Menace (whatever the hell that is) and Revenge of the Sith, which always seemed like a lazy man's title.

The title brings into question what has occurred in the Star Wars universe since we last saw Ewoks dancing on Endor.

Guesses? Hopes? New hopes? Let us know.
