    I didn't read any spoilers. But for those of you who did read some. How accurate have they been.
    I might visit the Spoiler Threads after watching IX but I might have other things to do like process the actual movie, prepare for Christmas. But I'm still curious.

    From what I have read the vast majority of the leaks are true. I am going to give it a chance. Some of it could work better in actual live action than in a written description but I guess we will see. There have been some interesting reactions out there on twitter and YouTube beyond all the confirming of the leak rumors so I am getting more and more positive.

    Like 50%, but haven't seen the movie yet either. The trailer and TV spots haven't even showed 15 minutes of the movie.

    I actually didn't expect discussion and voting to really start before tomorrow when it is first released to parts of the old world anyway

    Probably the smartest thing anyone has said. However, last night pictures of the screening began to appear and yeah, it appears a good number of them were legit.

    But, as @Travcon said, it's probably best to see it with your own eyes.

    Anyone else finding the pull of the spoilers dark side increasingly seductive today???

    I’m trying to avoid them at all costs but now that people are starting to see it (I think Europe gets it tomorrow?)... I’m going to have go into a deep meditative state to resist the pull...

    The most recent JediPaxis/MSW leaks along with a lot of their earlier stuff has been proven to be correct, which is disappointing a lot of folks.

    I don't think you can legitimately say that having the leaks confirmed is "disappointing a lot of folks" because we don't have concrete examples of that happening.

    Search "The Rise of Skywalker Review" on YouTube. Complete outrage from people that wanted Ben to live, an explaination of how Palpatine lived, and Anakin's force ghost. People that didn't get those things are very vocal right now. Go in the Reddit Star Wars Leaks subreddit, it's a total blood bath. So I'll stand by my statement.

    If you actively have to search for the negativity, you can't really objectively state that the confirmation of the leaks has been "disappointing a lot of folks".

    And I also wouldn't classify Youtube and a Reddit subforum as being examples of "a lot of people" anyway.

    Are you kidding? I didn't search for negative by searching "The Rise of Skywalker Reviews". How else can you tell if a lot of people don't like something other than by a feeling you get when reading/watching people's reactions? I can't get inside the heads of people other than take what they post at face value. When I read a lot of posts with disappointing reactions, what else should I think?

    You're not obligated to click on Youtube videos and a Reddit subforum when looking for reviews of/reactions to the film just because they're among the things that come up when you perform a search.

    You're 'biasing the result' when you actively look at negative reactions and then try to claim that they're representative of some broad consensus opinion of the film and the confirmation of the various spoiler leaks we've heard about.
