It’s here! Are you quivering with excitement? I must be, the family here says they can see it written all over me, even when I don’t think I’m even thinking about it. It’s The Force Awakens Premiere Week, and I’m officially on lockdown – wary of all social media feeds and Google Alerts, and ready to preemptively shush anyone who tries to tell me anything. Remember that Seinfeld episode where Jerry’s taped the Mets game and is trying to avoid hearing about it, and Kramer bursts in to Jerry’s apartment just as Jerry sits down to watch the tape and says, “Boy, the Mets really stunk up the joint tonight, huh?”
Yeah. Don’t be a Kramer, and watch out for all the other Kramers out there. 🙂
Not that this would be foolproof, but here’s the link to the Star Wars Spoliers Blocker for Google Chrome, and here’s Mashable’s review of it. Review spoiler alert – they claim it’s too draconian in its coverage, and not fast enough if you stumble across a headline that has the spoiler in it.
Personally, I’ll take draconian right now, and as for speed, well, it’s all about not surfing in places where you’d encounter bad apples posting bad headlines, right? Right. Stick to the main streets for a week, will ya? 🙂
Meanwhile, here’s the link to the details for the StarWars.com livestream of the red carpet premiere for later today – starting about 5:30pm PT. Will you be watching? Or are you blocking that out, too? Have you say in the comments!
