I just hope that they learn how a thesaurus works. Just because the word showed up in the out-of-universe title for the first movie doesn't give it any importance in-universe. Certainly not enough to have people saying it all the time as if expecting the audience to cheer.
Besides which, rebellious action is more effective at overthrowing an evil empire than nebulous hope.
Spider-Man/Star Wars crossover? Imperial Bugle will expose these phantoms for the (threats or) menaces they are! And Spider-Man is behind it all, somehow!
Can't imagine ol' J.J. would be terribly behind the Empire. He may not approve of a squad of superpowered beings operating without oversight, but he probably also doesn't approve of them being gunned down en masse by a totalitarian state.
Unless Palpatine tells him they were connected to Spider-Man.
"But when The Empire Strikes Back, hope is the most important thing we have. Without hope how can there be a Return of The Jedi? Without hope, how can this Star Wars ever end?"
please...stop...
