Can't do it. Clicked on one from a MPLS music magazine and saw a few words (without context) that scared me.

The collider one also has a couple plot points.

OUT.

nothing spoiler about this other than soe excitement to come. Its the last paragraph of a non spoiler review I just read from the Minneapolis paper. Spoilering it for others.
Spoiler: show
What makes Episode VIII outstanding is that since “A New Hope” and “The Empire Strikes Back,” no other movies in the Star Wars universe have hypnotized audiences with such unexpected surprises and didn’t-see-that-coming plot twists. It delivers developments like pieces of a puzzle that seem at first unrelated and later join together seamlessly. Never before has something that seems like a random makeup mistake turned into a key plot point. Johnson’s layered storytelling is a profusion of Jedi mind tricks, with as many crafty con games snaring unsuspecting viewers as the characters on-screen.

As Luke tells Rey, “This is not going to go the way you think!” It goes much better than that.

OK, that makes sense: the headline of the article is sometimes in the URL. Gotcha.

MAJOR spoilers are out there now. I'm staying away from anything SW related on the internet for a few days.

I read a handful of reviews to scratch an itch, and now I'm staying away. If I'm honest I kind of regret reading the ones I did, for plot spoilers. Just broad outlines, so no twists or anything like that, but I'm out.

12:45 AM Thursday Night (Thursday into Friday). Almost there...
