My general spoiler guesses (and the spoiler warning is entirely serious):

After their initial meeting and adventures, Finn and Rey find the Millenium Falcon, and despite space being really, really big, somehow just accidentally stumble across Han Solo and Chewbacca, thereby proving that Star Wars as a franchise still has absolutely no respect for probability.

Ben 'Kylo Ren' Solo dramatically kills his father Han in the final third of the film.

Despite killing his father, Kylo Ren finds himself unable to kill his cousin Rey due to some Force-related psychobabble.

It's Ben Ren's childhood move to the Dark Side and hero worship of his grandfather Darth Vader that tore Han and Leia's relationship apart, and caused Luke to go into exile.

The film ends with Rey travelling to find her father Luke Skywalker at the urging of her aunt Leia.

The new trilogy as a whole will be about the relationship between the cousins Ben 'Kylo Ren' Solo and Rey Skywalker, and the search for balance in the Force.

No, I haven't gone looking for spoilers; that's a series of educated guesses based on what's freely available online.

If I'm wrong about any of that, I invite you to make fun of me accordingly next week once you've seen the film.

All that remains is to show that biological systems replicate in such a way as to satisfy the minimal criteria required for evolution to apply to them, something which has already been adequately shown time and again. At this point, we've pretty much proven that not only can evolution happen, it pretty much must happen since it's basically impossible to prevent it from happening.

Yes. Jar Jar let loose those giant blue balls onto the Naboo battlefield, where at least one of them ran straight into an AAT and melted a destructive hole into it. :meh:

Going to watch in a couple of hours. I've been enjoying inventing fake spoilers for it since then.

"Who knew an Ewok could become a Sith lord???!"

"I was shocked to see Moby cameo as a X-wing pilot!"

"I'm glad episode 7 explained in such intricate detail the cause of the trade disputes in the Phantom Meanace"

"Didn't know the former members of the boy band N-Sync were actually in this film"

"Greedo's clone son is a better shot than his dad"
