With regards to spoilers I would agree with the Fan of Celluloid on what a spoiler is but I would agree with Invidia that if a film is pretty old then it's not too much of a worry if you miss out a spoiler warning. I would try to remember to do it as a courtesy but generally if someone hasn't seen Kill Bill and sees the conversation veer towards Kill Bill they would probably stop reading if they're worried about spoilers. But that film or tv show would have to be relatively old. A fair bit older than a week. Unless it's on the specific thread for the corresponding film/tv show.

The use of the n-word in this, backed up with the repeat in Pulp Fiction doesn't reflect well on Tarantino. Either he is infantile, racist, or insecure in his own filmcraft and feels the need to take the easy route with shock tactics as a way of increasing the exposure of his films. I suspect a bit of the first and third options personally.

It's something that's important to me. I can't recall exactly how many times I've had key moments from films flashed at me online, before I watched them. That's why I try to put a spoiler tag at the start of my posts whenever I reveal something that I feel is pivotal to a film being discussed. Sometimes, I wonder if more people don't take part in the boards because they don't want info spoiled for them... I've noticed when some actors go on TV promoting their films, they might mention something like, "This is a spoiler," even if the film has been out longer than a week.

Personally, I don't even go to the movies anymore to catch new releases (it's a long story). So automatically, this means that I'm going to wait longer than a frigging week to see a new release, and I don't want to have stuff spoiled for me online. This creates problems for me as someone who traffics with message boards.

LOL

I usually also don't go to see films either (have only see 2 of them at the theater in the past 2 decades).

if you havent watched avengers in the theaters this means you are either on a house arrest or you dont realize the importance of certain flicks. i need to start building you back up. build you stronger with limitless endurance. you will thank me once its over. think about it, pet

Yes, it is frustrating. An unfortunate element of the internet age.
