Anti-Spoiler culture is a Hollywood marketing tactic to defend mediocre products. The reason they want people to react so strongly is that spoilers NEVER damage a good product, various studies have shown that knowing the twist at the end of a film or book can enhance your enjoyment of it. This is a type of irony which was part of foundations of Greek theater. The Audience knows what the characters don't and thus can observe and make observations the characters within the story can't. No truly great work can be sapped of it's value by a spoiler. People simply perceive that they've "lost" something by being spoiled because they can never experience the product "unspoiled" anymore. They trick themselves into thinking they lost something valuable.
Now why would Hollywood want to promote a culture where spoilers are viewed as a bad thing? Where going in blind is something everyone should do? That's because it protects mediocre or awful movies. If you go into a film, they've got your money and have already won. That's all that matters to them. Your cash in their pockets. So they promote this culture where being an informed consumer is seen as bad. If you think that a film needed it's twist unspoiled to be good, reevaluate it, because more than likely that's either not true or that the film just isn't good.

This entire thread is fucking ridiculous. You've completely thrown out the idea of proper engagement between film and audience out of some anti-Jew paranoia.

It's not the industry pushing this spoiler crap, you gullible mung.
Audiences do it to themselves because they want to signal to others that they care a lot about the media in question. It's a symptom of fanboyism and nerd culture, which are both forms of generalized retardation.

The joke is that the films who do this turn off people not because they tell you the entire plot, but because the plot is bad enough to turn you off before you get rused into watching it.
A Spoiler can only change how you view Plot. It cannot affect Sound Design, Set Design, Acting, Direction, Visual Effects,Scene construction, etc.
Can you name one movie who all this listed aspects of a film get ruined because you know that Rosebud is the sleigh or that Darth Vader is Luke's father beforehand?

Christ, next you autists will be demanding actors clarify their facial expressions like in Frank, because you don't understand emotion.

This is a lot of mental gymnastics to cover up for being a shitty person that wants to spoil things for everyone

>>82021985
I'd agree with you if not for the fact that Hollywood marketing themselves spoil everything through trailers and pre-release publications
>>
>>82021985
I'd might've bought into this if I didn't remember that movie trailers spoil everything now.
