The December 2017 release date for the next Star Wars film is still a really long time away, and there’s still very little concrete information out there, so for now, fans have to cling to whatever information we can find.
Case in point: the below video, which appears to contain the title of Episode VIII.
The title in question, if it turns out to be legit, may be something of a spoiler for the film’s plot, but then, if you cared about being pristine and unspoiled, you probably wouldn’t have clicked through this far in the first place.

Star Wars: Fall Of The Resistance.
Games Radar, who shared the footage after it appeared on Reddit, reckon that the video might show a piece of publicity material for the upcoming Star Wars Celebration Europe, which takes place from July 15-17.
If it’s for real, the title would appear to follow Star Wars naming convention; just as The Empire Strikes Back came after A New Hope, The Resistance might expect to suffer a few setbacks after their big wins in The Force Awakens.
Meanwhile, earlier this week, we learned some definitely 100% legit details about the upcoming Star Wars: Rogue One spin-off after artwork from an accompanying book appeared online.
