Some of those folks are acting a tad too spoiled.

[Tiffanys]

I hate spoilers but that's pretty stupid. I mean, I could understand if it was trying to protect fans from spoilers, but it's on sites that literally say "Naruto Spoilers" and it isn't even because it spoils something... it's because they think it hurts sales... and that's what makes it stupid as fuck.

[marinosgr]

Except the two first comments which I didn't understand I agree that this is extreme and stupid!I wonder what they'll do next now...

Snape Kills Dumbledore.

And now bakabt is gonna get banned thanks to above spoilers. ^__^

Seriously though, stop with those spoilers. It's not really funny for guys who haven't read/seen it.

Jim Caviezel, errh I mean Jesus Christ gets crucified.

Yeah... one of the above spoilers actually ruined one of the Harry Potter movies for me before I saw it because it became a fucking meme and was everywhere... it's just a real douchy thing to do.

how are spoilers any different than sneak peeks and trailers though? they both spoil a part of the story, although the weight differs.

Trailers are supposed to be there to give you an idea of what the movie might be like while spoilers are the punches of the movie.

I'm one of those people that don't mind spoilers at all. And really, "Snape kills Dumbledore" didn't spoil the movie, it spoiled the book. There's nothing left to spoil for a movie adapted from a book.

I know it was a joke, but assuming BBT is hosted in the United States, Japan is not allowed to do anything. What they are doing is censorship which goes against the First Amendment.

The movie came out years after an extremly popular book.  Even if it didn't became a meme everyone would still be talking about it. You'd have to work pretty hard to not know the plot and still be interested in Harry Potter movies enough to avoid spoilers.
It's like trying to avoid The Great Gatsby spoilers, not saying HP is at the same level as Gatsby, but still.
Personally I find most plots easy to guess so that might have something to do with my attitude towards spoilers.

[megido-rev.M]

Usually, plots are easy to guess.

[Burkingam]

Well, I only watched the last Harry Potter 2 months ago and it's the only book I haven't read, yet while I know that Dumbledore was gonna die, I didn't know how.

[megido-rev.M]

Betrayals are pretty common for such things.

It'd be about like dropping big Game of Thrones spoilers because "it's in the books." No, that doesn't make it okay. It makes you a gigantic prick.
