No, actually it was first called "The Genesis Planet", then
"The Undiscovered Continent", then "The Vengeance of Khan",
and finally since "Vengeance" sounds a little like "Revenge"
(as in "Revenge of the Jedi") it was called "The Wrath of Khan".

In reference to No, actually it was first called "The Genesis Planet", then "The Undiscovered Continent", then "The Vengeance of Khan", and finally since "Vengeance" sounds a little like "Revenge" (as in "Revenge of the Jedi") it was called "The Wrath of Khan". - Mark Starner Hate to sink your ship, but I believe that the last SW movie was called "Return of the Jedi", was it not?

Everyone knows that the original title was to be Revenge of the Jedi. In fact there were posters and t-shirts with that title distributed and have now become collector's items. Lucas decided to change the title to Return ... because he thought that since Jedi are good they shouldn't seek revenge. However he made that decision after he forced the Trek people to change their title From Revenge of Khan to Wrath of Khan.
