Wow, I thought it was admirable they were keeping the novelization back until the movie was out, but the soundtrack even! I can't help but think it's mostly in vain with stuff like TFA Monopoly being released today. Still, it's a little less to try and avoid.
I sort of agree (what with the toys and Lego sets especially) but I took a look at the back cover of that Monopoly and it looks more like saga Monopoly with TFA branding and figurines - nothing even close to spoilers.
For the most part it does seem like they're keeping plot stuff under wraps and even though it seems like we're getting a lot if you take a good look (which I admittedly am trying not to do) it doesn't seem like much has been revealed at all. I sort of wonder if the teasers even show anything from the second half of the film.
Of course, were months away, and there's still another trailer and even more merchandizing to look forward to (they made a point not to put out toys featuring the OT three - don't think they're not going to want those out in time for Christmas, along with variations of the new three [someone's getting a lightsaber]). But the soundtrack is a little bit different, I feel, not just because of potentially revealing track names, but also the music itself will be a big part of the experience of the film. An obvious but good call to wait until the film's release.
