    Ok...

    I might be too lazy to do this guys... I will try...

    Here's my plan with this thread... And mods, feel free to lock is unnecessary.

    We have been "spoiled" big time in the last months by frauds.

    Even if there is a slight chance their imagination might bull's eye an actual fact from TFA, knowing it was made up, mathematically, it can be dismissed...

    My plan, first, is, let's make a list of all frauds (I know the word is harsh)
    Secondly: let´s sum the "spoilers" we were granted with in a list
    Tercio: let´s conclude with what TFA won't be.

    I personally think it's a mess that needs to be cleaned up, for the sake of everyone, and new members.

    At the end, we might, like Sherlock Holmes, see more clearly :) and find TFA's mysteries.

    I suggest that because I am kind of lost of what had been dismissed as fraud and what is still fresh

    (Remember, this is based on taking for granted that Frauds posted false information, they might have guessed some things right... more to come)

    Hm, I'll wait and see what becomes of this thread.

    It's been put forward to put a list of all the good rumors we know about. And I think zilch has been done on that. So maybe the opposite will indeed work out. I agree with it either way. :D

    Frankly I'm not sure where to start. Everyone was floored with the announcement of the title (and one could assume content) of the first spin-off, so I can hardly imagine how much false information we must have for the big show (TFA).

    OK, I'll bite

    if this isin't in the spirit of what you're after, i apologize.

    Fraud:Spoiler-babe

    Thread:My thoughts on TFA and more

    Everything stated in the opening of that thread is rediculous. If someone is just spewing ideas for entertainment puposes, so be it. But to expect any kind of crediblity for something like that...c'mon!

    I realize that was pretty scathing, is it too late to say "no offense...but..."

    Yoda 2 (no offense). He started claiming he saw pictures of Kylo Ren with a ton of stormtroopers behind him, and Poe Dameron with a scar on his face. I wouldn't call him a fraud, but he literally kept claiming he had "seen stuff". For some reason, everyone just believed him, despite the lack of evidence.

    The Greenham Commons scene "script." I'm sure you can find it if you search. It's pretty hysterical.

    It was a thread way back in the early days of the forum. Guy pretended to be JJ Abram's pet cat. Said JJ had left the script to TFA on the table when he went out so the cat read it an decided to post on the forum. That's the kind of fraud I can get behind. Someone who does it with style and says f-it, I don't care if anyone believes me.

    My cat would betray me like that, no doubt. so thats a spoiler with substance and he delivers evidance. Bottom line we have the teaser, the Topps cards and crew photos. thats it. not bad for the most ampicitated movie and such a big production.

    Think about it this way, what better way for the Disney PR machine to feed misinformation to than to feed it to the number one SW fansite? To keep it credible, they gave him the trailer info a week before the trailer since it was coming out anyway. After it came out people were like " wow he got it right he must be legit " and from there on the misinformation began in small doses and it reached its' peak with the Luke is in one scene rumor.
    Just my two cents..

    IF that were the only thing he's gotten correct I would say yeah ok. But its not. He has described concept art correctly on multiple occasions. He has released information that Viral has also confirmed from his sources... oh and WHY WOULD DISNEY DO THAT???

    Where does this idea that Disney/JJ would release false information out come from? The closest either has done is JJ is saying that BC was playing character named John Harrison and not Khan. And JJ admits it was a mistake. Its just dumb. Now does that mean EVERYTHING Making says is correct? No he has sources those sources could wrong, have old info or been mistaken on what they saw, but the idea that Disney/Lucasfilm/BadRobot are actively sending out misinformation to websites is preposterous. These are state secrets, its a movie. A movie that anyone spending the time we all do looking for spoilers will be seen by us no matter what!
