Surely you can't be serious.
I am serious,and don't call me Shirley
Thanks. If someone wants to, can supply how it's applied here (what "good lie" is used) - I'll take the spoiler. But, that's helpful.
shareI was hesitant on giving it away. Go see the Movie.

Bruce, I find it... condescending when someone makes the spoiler decision for someone else who's already made the decision for themselves. (As for spoiling the story for a third party, that's what the "blackout" spoiler tags stop--if you use them.) But if you don't want to give someone the help they ask for, then just shut up about it. Don't tell them (twice) that you're not going to tell them, and that they should see the movie instead.
BTW, there are some movies that I'm on the fence about seeing, and I won't see *unless* someone spoils them for me first. Don't assume that your personal approach always applies for everyone.
