'Objects In Space'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
The 2012 spoiler landscape. IO9 covers how many spoilers are out for upcoming TV shows and movies. The article itself isn't spoilery, but comments might be.
They rate spoiledness on a scale of 1-10, and interestingly the most unspoiled movie is not Nolan, but Whedon.

I kind of want to know ahead of time if Bane breaks Batman's back (shit, that's alliterative). (I don't know if I should whitefont speculation based on a very old comic plotline, so I will for now.) Some stuff in the trailer makes me think yes, but I sort of want to know going in.
I don't really need to be spoiled for Avengers -- I just want it to get here now, damn it. I'm not really invested in *what* happens; I just want stuff to happen, and I want to see it.
I'm a simple creature.
t edit I posted that before I read the link; I thought you mean Avengers was most unspoiled, but you meant Cabin in the Woods. Interesting.

I'm very much that way too, WRT The Avengers. But with DKR, I'm good being surprised with just about everything, lest I start second guessing.
And I figure being unspoiled for Cabin In The Woods (the 1 rating) will be the funnest way to go in.
Spoil me entirely for Hunger Games, though.
I'm skeptical of the "If you haven't read the book, then you're screwed. There's no way to avoid running into people who've read it and want to talk about it." assertion. This board is the only place I frequent online where I've heard anything about the Hunger Games movies, and I have never heard the movies or books mentioned by a single person in meatspace.
I think the movie Hunger Games should be able to effectively deal with the plot and events well enough that it should be close enough to the book. It would be a major fuck up otherwise.
Books 2 and 3 need some tinkering I think. I just can't see how the 3rd book (except for some battle scenes) is all that filmable. Hell, the last part of the book is tell tell tell (very little to show). Hopefully they have a deft screenwriter. Maybe that's why they are going to split 2-3 into 3 movies.
I think if it's high profile enough that EW writes about it without particular concerns for spoiling it's reasonable to assume spoilers are out there for the bumping into. Doesn't mean you *will*, but it's not exactly treated like your average Nolan movie or anything.

I am Teppy.
Okay, Alien: Resurrection is much better than Alien 3. It feels more like an Alien movie, and it's pretty fun.
Ugh. Yuck, yuck, yuck. I have a fondness for Alien 3, and what Fincher managed to salvage from it. And it's got Charles Dance FFS. And I could not stand anything at all about Resurrection. Even on rewatch, I found it painfully bad.

My roommate and I are speculating that Nolan's actually going to take it further than that.

Follow it up with a nipple cripple?
A Bat-wedgie?
