no fake_it_up, because the "filters" are rendered real time and dependent on the Flash player, not a filter.

The new bitmap manipulation is really sweet. I already messed with it and it’s fast and simple. It find of killed my interest in Processing for now.
I agree that we'll see an overuse of filters but it'll save so much time when trying to put something like a dropshadow on. I know I love the dropshadow filter in Photoshop and am glad I don't have to create it manually anymore.

The beta version of Flash 8 authoring environment STILL has linear undo. I swear I will not use that shit if it doesn't go back to how Undo use to be in 1-5/MX.

i hope they made improvements to the AS2 compiler.
closing flash when i ctrl+t and there is an extra ; or some bs like that is just plain annoying.

There's some pretty cool stuff being done with GetPixel, and the app isn't een out yet!
Looking forward to deploying Flash 8 files in 2008 when it's the standard audience version ;)

I am excited, but I don't think this release is more important than the last one (2004 AS2.0). I mean an improved image api is nice, but the supported effects can easily lead to becoming corny within six months. I would rather hope they have impoved the import of PSD's (or PNG's) and IDE improvements. But maybe we'll have to wait for that with the next version when MM + Adobe are really integrated.

I'm pretty excited about the new video options it's gonna have.
