"Every Saga Has a Beginning", then "Widescreen", "Widescreen", etc.

The top banner on the front of the DVDs. Episode I is the only one that says anything other than Widescreen or Fullscreen. I know the reason is because there was no fullscreen release originally, but what do you think Episodes II (and III for that matter) would say on the top if they went along with "Every Saga Has a Beginning"? I want to create custom covers that replace the Widescreen banners with something like this:

The Phantom Menace:
Every Saga Has a Beginning

Attack of the Clones:
??

Revenge of the Sith:
??

A New Hope:
The Force is Strong With This One

The Empire Strikes Back:
You Must Feel the Force Around You...

Return of the Jedi:
I Am a Jedi, Like My Father Before Me...

The classic trilogy quotes are what appears on backs of the latest VHS releases that came before the DVDs.

I'm sure that was helpful.

Anyway...

A lot of the single line dialogue in EPII is trying to be over the top, but I'll try and give some real help:

"All mentors have a way of seeing more of our faults than we would like. It's the only way we grow."

"The dark side clouds everything. Impossible to see the future is."

"The day we stop believing democracy can work is the day we lose it."

"One day, I will become the greatest Jedi EVER. I will even learn how to stop people from dying." (doesn't really work for a cover, though)

"The shroud of the dark side has fallen, begun the clone war has. "

On my intitial thoughts, I'd probably go with the first part of the last one.

The shroud of the dark side has fallen...

well it was funny atleast.

Attack of the clones
"Wait.. what did we name this again?"

Episode III
"Hey, it's over, how are we going to milk it now?"

Episode II
"Defended by clones"

Every Saga Has a (Middle?) (Second Chapter?)

but seriously, I think I like both lines about the dark side best, or maybe even just "Begun the clone war has."

Hee, if we can't laugh at this stuff, what can we laugh at?

I really don't think Episode II can have a decent tag line

"Here we go again"

"we continue once more"

and how about for episode III?

"Every prequel trilogy has an end"

We could laugh at you , but that would be off-topic
(and not nice)

That's why I tried to give a real answer.

Another vote for "Begun the Clone War has." In my opinion, it is the only memorable line from the movie, unless of course you rather go with "You wanna buy some death sticks?"

For those that don't know yet, the official tagline of ROTS is:

Spoiler:
The Saga Is Complete

I always thought ROTS should have been: "The Star Wars Saga Concludes" (even though technically it isn't the conclusion, it is the final movie of the series). Since in the theatrical runs, TESB and ROTJ were "The Star Wars Saga Continues," it probably makes sense to have it along those lines. And I thought TPM should've been "The Star Wars Saga Begins."

a "real" answer. All those that were given were real enough. They may have been offtopic, but regardless, they were real.

Now that Star Wars Episode III is out, what would make a good tagline for it, in the spirit of "Every Saga Has a Beginning" from Episode I. I know the official one is "The Saga is Complete", but when you look at is as a six part series, it's not really true. That tagline should go to Return of the Jedi. So anyway, what about, "Twisted by the Dark Side, He Has Become"? Anything else sound good?
