Well, maybe you should consider it. It was a brain-dead and completely jerkish response by a staff writer to a perfectly fair criticism.
The movie’s only been out for a few days, and the theaters were packed. Some of us were looking forward to catching it this week and have been careful to avoid spoilers. Instead, just…
Child, this isn’t someone ‘talking’ about a movie before we’ve seen it. This is someone writing a spoiler in the headline of a heavily visited website.
“You’ve had three days to see the movie”
Do you really not understand the distinction between “talking about it” and posting a spoiler in a headline?
I’m going to see the movie tonight (I was busy with work last weekend, bite me) and I was specifically wondering about whether they would kill one of the minor characters to add some real repercussion to having all good guys fight each other. The article is fine to write now and the title would be fine 3 weeks from…
No one is complaining about the article, they're complaining about the spoiler filled title. You're all supposedly professional writers, maybe come up with a sentence that doesn't spoil one aspect of a just released movie. And you say it's been out for 3 days like that's some excuse for not rushing out and immediately…
Nobody is mad at people for talking about it, you fucking stooge, the point is you can talk about it in a discrete way so as not to spoil things for people who choose NOT to read about it until after they’ve seen it.
Yea I mean there’s no way he could make the title something like “My biggest complaint about Civil War” or “Civil war was great EXCEPT” or literally any other title that doesn’t have a spoiler in the title. Since, you know, some of us were busy this weekend and were planning on watching it tonight.
“You had three days to see it” is fucking disingenuous at best. I can roll with maybe a month or two, but come on.
You can criticize it within the article without spoiling it for everyone in the title. Some of us have families and commitments and can’t get away on a given weekend to see a movie. Two or three weeks later, it’s understandable, not three days of within the movie’s release. Well over half the people that are going to…
The way that you are defending it makes it crystal clear that the article’s title was a deliberate attempt to drive page views by people upset about the embedded spoiler.
Nobody is getting mad over “people talking about it”, you stupid fucking pancake. The title is a big spoiler. There’s absolutely no reason it needed to be. You know this, but you’re choosing to be an asshole on purpose...
There is a difference between talking about it and posting right in the title that nobody dies. Even if there is no death, that in itself if a plot point. Going in KNOWING that there are no deaths removes that mystery. At least you’d have to think about the fights wondering, or when Roadie drops from the sky. Come on…
Hey, thanks for the fucking spoiler right in the title.
The first cry, that sound made me lose my shit, seriously the greatest joy I’ve ever felt(I’m the dad and a nurse). Alive and breathing was such a relief. We are “old” and it was a surprise pregancy (had been tested 10yrs before and was totally infertile after chemo) and didn’t find out until 10wks in. Things went…
aaaaaaand.... you’re wrong.
Will this finally stop people from asking for that fucking statue back? Let’s just melt it down, closest replication to where he is if there’s any thing as justice.
OMG I totally forgot yesterday was Cinco de Cuatro!
What about 40 cakes?
