OK, according to the contribution rules we use a colon, and only a colon for subtitles. And as you say there is no word "Episode" on the front cover. So that means the title can only be written as:
Star Wars I: The Phantom Menace
No other variation follows the rules for the online. So ideally the word "Episode" should be removed from the title and the change submitted to the online. Of course, if you like the word "Episode" in there, there's nothing wrong with keeping it for your local.  A single choice! Perfect, just what I wanted to hear. And yes, never really liked the word Episode in the title anyway. I'll submit the changes for each of my DVDs which don't conform that that precise standard. Thanks, DD. |

Thanks,

Submitted. But you removed the edition when you submitted. Just to be clear, the edition is correct and has nothing to do with the rest of the title. Be warned, the title looks like it is locked in the online database. It will need to be unlocked (by the users) before it can be changed. I also see there are objections to your studio changes. You may want to check your contribution and look at the votes/comments. |

| | Posted: | | | | The Studios are also correct AS IS. Your original title change is subject to interpretation. I see the existing origina; as PERFECT:Y rationaland in keeping with the data as it appears On Screen/ Is that yOUR interpretation or can you provide back up from Lucasfilm that the original title is as YOU describe.

Quite correct. This particular contribution does nothing but remove or change good data. Well that's why it was rejected Marvin! Glad to see the procedure works. I was overly ambitious in submitting all 3 Title changes. As widescreenforever correctly pointed out, only two were wrong and Clones was entirely correct. I'll have to rejig the other two studio submissions to make them match Clones. The DVD does list Lucasfilm first and much more prominently than 20th Century, but I can see DVDP wants the Theatrical Releasing company first, production second, DVD releasing third. DD. |

DD. You don't rejig to make things match, that is a personal choice and belongs ONLY locally. The data for each film stands on its own merits. If they are all the same that is fine, but if each film is handled differently (which has been known to happen) then so be it. Skip | | | ASSUME NOTHING!!!!!!

Not sure what your point is. At the time I made this post the contribution was still up for vote. Not sure why he said it was rejected... because it is still up for vote. Currently with 46 No votes and 2 yes votes. Rooster... You may want to withdraw your contribution so that it does go against your average... as I have heard Invelos tracks your average of accepted/declined contributions. | | | | Pete |

For the first to be correct, it should be - Star Wars: Episode 1: The Phantom Menace
I've never seen any Star Wars movie using non-roman numerals. So the "1" is most likely wrong. Neither have I. I just made the statement what the correct naming would be based on the name provided here.

Rooster... You may want to withdraw your contribution so that it does go against your average... as I have heard Invelos tracks your average of accepted/declined contributions. That is the exact reason I said it was rejected, it was 34 NO and 2 YES when I checked, even Sarah Palin can figure out how that vote will end up. But thanks for the second bit, I have withdrawn the submission. DD. |

Skip For once you are incorrect, Skip. Rejig means "to alter". In this case, as has been amply shown, it is most definitely NOT a personal choice. In the case of The Phantom Menace and Revenge of the Sith (ie. the other two), the Theatrical Releasing Company is 20th Century Fox, the Production Company is Lucasfilm Ltd., and the DVD Releasing company is 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment. The involved companies are identical to Attack of the Clones. The only acceptable entry is therefore : Studios : 20th Century Fox Lucasfilm Ltd. 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment As both Phantom and Sith incorrectly list the studios in DVDP, both records need to be rejigged.
