If the controversial spoiler circulating is true, it's among the dumbest plot devices in any SW film.

I'm seeing it this Sat so i'll reserve judgment until then, but man, some of those spoilers not only sound terrible but completely undermine anything being built up in TFA. Like, completely.

It's like an addiction. I checked for Phantom Menace spoilers daily, even when I had to ride my bike to the library because my family didn't have an internet connection at the time. 
The alleged "twist" in this movie does sound like BAD fan fiction when read out of context. If true, I can totally understand why Mark went public with his disagreement about Rian's approach to his character. In fact, everything this new "story group" has come up with in regard to the big three feels like a squandered opportunity, especially in the wake of Fisher's death.

I read the spoilers, too, and, if true, all I can say is "Fuck this movie."
They're building up so much hype about how awesome this movies is that it's going to be a Phantom Menace level let-down
They just shit on all of the goodwill that The Force Awakens built up. This is prequel-level garbage.

...and also:
Seriously, THIS is what everyone has been raving about? You have people claiming this is the best Star Wars movie ever and eberything I've read about the plot comes off like prequel-era tripe.

Lol... those spoilers are dumb as hell. If true, this movie is going to be a letdown. I can't imagine the minimization of critical characters any more than described above; these have to be fake because even my 9 year old wouldn't make that mistake.

Makes me wonder if this is why Trevorrow got fired from/quit Episode IX: He lost his shit when he saw what Johnson was leaving him to work with.

Well, I read the linked spoilers and all I have to say is, I DO NOT CARE! I am not the one writing the story, it's not mine to tell - as long as what's there is well told, I am along for the ride (That's the main thing wrong with the prequels). This is just escapism entertainment, folks.

Me, too, and I have not seen a thing yet that even remotely indicates The Last Jedi is not a great movie. Are there things that are going to happen or are revealed plot and canon-wise that I, personally, would have gone in a different direction with? Sure, every movie is like that. But the only nay-saying I am hearing are from people who haven't actually seen The Last Jedi yet. I seem to recall the same thing about The Force Awakens, as well.

I'm believing these rumors are true... and I say that because the author of the rumors has a decent amount of posts on the site you referenced and has been there for 6 years. I highly doubt he's going AWOL just to mess with people.
