It sounds like a MAJOR, movie-ruining Episode VII SPOILER has hit the net.  The story (but not the spoiler apparently) can be found HERE

It's making me seriously consider staying out of this thread (and off facebook and the JediDefender Twitter feed) for the next year to do everything I can to avoid having the movie ruined...  :-\

We should probably set this thread to either have, or not have, spoilers perhaps.  Just links if people want to click them maybe.   :-\

I'm avoiding anything major.

I just hope the new movies do not follow the 'formulaic' plot of the first 6 movies (thanks to the prequels that's what it becomes):

Obi-Wan dies in E4, Qui-Gon dies in E1, Luke dies in E7 (since he's the Jedi Master)
Luke loses a hand in E5, Ani loses a hand in E2, someone loses a hand in E8.
etc.

Ya my FB is littered with Ep7 spoilers.  I couldn't resist on clicking on a few but would prefer to come in open minded like I did with Ep1 came out.  Probably too late for that now just sayin...

I'm with you Jeff, I'm seriously considering going dark over the next year.  I liked seeing some of the footage of the ships and locations and knowing who the cast members are going to be, but I think I'm going to stay away from the plot details from here on out.  I'll catch the trailers once they start to come out, but that will probably be the extent of it.

Doesn't bother me one way or the other, I would be curious to know what it is. Then again, I'm not going to go out of my way either.

I think that I'm ready to tap out on the spoilers.  The more I hear from the cast about maintaining the element of surprise, the more I think that's the way to go.

I mildly paid attention to TPM spoilers, so when I saw the movie, it sucked but I still enjoyed the experience.

For AOTC I stayed completely spoiler free and the shock was so severe when I saw that smoldering pile of ****, it threw me right off EVERYTHING Star Wars for like 2 years.

For ROTS, I mildly paid attention to spoilers and again, while it sucked, I was still able to enjoy the experience.  I am not going to go out of my way to remain spoiler free for Ep7, I'm like a goldfish that way I suppose, I require a bit of time to acclimatize myself.

John Williams to begin composing E7 score in 2 weeks

Pretty cool news to hear, and I'm hoping Williams has some good stuff in store. Outside of Duel of the Fates, the PT soundtracks were far from memorable, and I'm pretty sure he just phoned in Indy 4 like everybody else.

Indy 4 OST was just recycled music from ROTLA. Very disappointing.

Agreed, the last work he has done for LFL stuff hasn't been memorable really...  I hope he really has some impressive stuff for the new ones.

Come to think of it, Battle of the Heroes was really well done for ROTS too... I actually really enjoy the Episode I soundtrack and give it a listen every once in a while when I listen to the OT soundtracks. I thought it was weird that they recycled music from TPM for the other two prequels (examples being podrace music during the scene where Gunships invade the arena and Qui Gon funeral music being reused for Padme's funeral). I wonder if Williams was simply unmotivated because Ben Burtt was drowning his stuff out with goofy sound effects.
