Having said that, I know as a reader that if I don't want anything spoiled--or even to have preconceptions going into something--it's in my interest to avoid threads discussing it until after I've seen it. We all knew that Captain Kirk was going to die in Star Trek Generations because they practically advertised as Star Trek: We Kill Kirk in This One, but

they should make a button for spoilers whenever you reply. Like for example we have a quote option.
