While the announcement of the new Star Wars: Episode VIII title has taken much of the world by surprise, one super-fan had it pegged all along.

News broke this morning that Episode VIII had officially been titled The Last Jedi. Over a year ago however, a Reddit user said that exact title was one of three solid options for the new movie.

User Trumundo posted a question in the movies subreddit last year, asking others what they thought could be the title of Episode VIII. Another user broke down the titles of the previous seven films, and deduced that there was definitely a formula. Following that, hundreds of people made their thoughts on the issue known.

Trumundo went back and edited the intitial question, stating that they had three possible titles - given the rules and patterns that had been laid out. UP NEXT: Who Is The Last Jedi?
