    Is he BS'ing me? Haha.

    He said his friend from a newspaper brought him as a plus one, and that people from rotten tomatoes, imdb, newspaper critics were there. I talked to him for a long time in FB chat but didn't get much of anything. :p

    He said he had to give his cell number and sign a nondisclosure agreement.

    He said it's a new kind of star wars but definitely leaves 1 2 and 3 in the dust.

    Didn't John Williams still have another scoring session to complete?
    And didn't JJ Abrams just say that they were still working on finishing up effects shots and creating the final cut in the editing room?

    I can guarantee you that the editing isn't even 111% complete. That's the reason for the second/potentially third pass. The scoring and VFX will be done before editing is complete. Even though it's shot on film, it's digital conversion will make it much easier to edit with the sheen of film
    Up until the last minute and the final
    Deliverables to be distributed by USB/HD4K files to most theaters besides The 70mm prints.

    I mean, even after my last film gained distribution, I had to go back to LucasFilmLTD to do tweaks and edits to fulfill my distributors' demands for the deliverables for full-on distribution and I believe TFA is doing that, too as LFL is not taking chances with it.

    I do not believe that LFL and ESPECIALLY JJ would let the public of any means see an incomplete version of something so ingrained into our modern culture's brains...heck, even my kitten knows what it is since she watches SW with me every night.

    I don't think the final cut was completed. I think only few of them really see the rough cut.

    The critics will not see TFA until 4 days before release. It was posted somewhere on the forum
