Spoiler alert!!!!.....for how long?

[Funky]

Personally, two years. That gives EVERYBODY an opportunity to watch it. Within two years, everything ultimately comes on TV (free stations, not cable). I figure after that, nobody can really gripe. Every excuse is gone.
If you're bothered by a spoiler, it means you intend to see the movie...eventually.
So you're too cheap to see it in the theaters.
Cool.
You're too cheap to rent it.
Cool.
You're too cheap to get cable.
Cool.
Now it comes on FREE TV and you STILL haven't watched it??? You have no right to say that you're bothered by spoilers as you've been given EVERY opportunity to see this movie and you snubbed every one. If you don't care enough to take every opportunity given you to see it and you STILL haven't done it, spoilers don't really bother you. You're just looking for something to complain about.

Yup, I'm thinkin' two years.

If something hasn't been released yet... and you are going to divulge part of the story that isn't obvious from the trailer or any other released material... then that is a spoiler.

If something has been released, and you have not seen it yet, you are on your own and should proceed with caution in reading anything anywhere. Spoilers do not apply after release. If its out, it's fair game, better go see it before reading around message boards.

Two weeks after the movie is out. If it's that important you'll get to the theater, or avoid the threads.

I hate these pre-movie talk threads that show the cool stuff in them. I want the full effect at the show. So I don't read them. Simple as that.

But I've had the opposite too. The thread says 'no spoilers' but they talk about the plot, characters, etc. Spoilers are Everything in the movie, not just the ending.

I do think you should avoid posting spoilers in thread titles....

For example, I still haven't seen Blade Runner... therefore, I'm not going to read a thread about Blade Runner. However, that hasn't stopped some folks from posting a bit of a BR spoiler in a thread title.
