That’s a shame.

I loved it but I never read the manga so I didn’t have anything to compare it to

Reading this post feels like an early entry into a psychopath's diary, or that it was written by a twelve-year-old.

"This character is bad, I want to tear their skull out" "This guy is not nice, I want to see him be tortured for hours." "The character is a jerk, hopefully someone force feeds them their intestines."

You're allowed to like anything you want, and dislike the rest, but you should probably work on some personal stuff if movies you don't even like can make you so violently angry.

Buddy, you can't block public discourse about art because one dude in the room didn't watch the movie.

I see people bitching about Citizen Kane spoilers and I'm like, how out of touch and entitled can you be.

It's your job to be updated, the world is not gonna stop for you.

I think this is it for me, if I’m already familiar with the media I’d probably rewatch it, but watching something new would seem wrong. Maybe it’s the fact as someone that buys physical media I have already bought it so rewatching it doesn’t benefit anyone involved.

Thanks, I’ll look into them

I do enjoy films with nuanced, morally grey characters. I listed plenty of films and characters in the post.

It's just when a character is irredeemably evil that they are not morally grey but have no morals at all where I just can't connect with them and end up hating them.

As someone that has never seen Fight Club, my view would be that something in the title should be spoiler free so I didn’t get spoilt just browsing Reddit in general, but the thread itself I would expect spoilers at this point without it explicitly being mentioned there are.

Holy Grail is up there for non sequitur / meme responses, but So I Married An Axe Murderer is definitely the number one spot for me since most of the lines / jokes are more conversational.

Once the average person knows about it then a spoiler is no longer needed.

The fact that no one mentioned tropic thunder renders this entire thread irrelevant

seems you can only enjoy films with morally good characters in, which is fine, but my god is that fucking boring. morally grey characters are the best.

Uwe bolls rampage series wasn't bad imo although the first is definitely the best

this has to be the dumbest take ever.

"First Reformed," "Aftersun," and "Taxi Driver" are all intense, thought-provoking movies with complex characters and themes. Here are some similar movies that you may enjoy:

"The Master" (2012) - This movie is directed by Paul Thomas Anderson and stars Joaquin Phoenix as a troubled World War II veteran who becomes involved with a charismatic cult leader played by Philip Seymour Hoffman.

"There Will Be Blood" (2007) - Also directed by Paul Thomas Anderson and starring Daniel Day-Lewis, this movie tells the story of an ambitious oil prospector in early 20th century California.

"Requiem for a Dream" (2000) - This movie, directed by Darren Aronofsky, follows the lives of four individuals as they spiral into addiction and despair.

no its still a spoiler. not EVERYONE is part of meme culture. whatever the fuck that means.

I do like the "until it becomes a meme" measure of time. Some things never reach that status, so should always be flagged.

yes. seeing as not everyone has watched it. if theres a potential twist or something in a film give a spoiler warning

i see it like this. just because a film has been out for years doesnt mean everyone has seen it. so dont spoil the film if you can help it.

i see zero reason to go out ya way to spoil something.

It's in my queue... Maybe I will subtitle view without volume on an overnight at some point.

I agree, definitely it's good manners when in a conversation with someone. And I would always clarify in a conversation whether someone had seen something before discussing spoilers.

My question arose from spoilers in online discussions and articles, where rules of discourse are a bit different. Or do you think the same argument applies?

I say once a spoiler has become part of pop-culture. Like the big secret of The Crying Game which no one could shut up about back then, despite critics appeals to discretion. A better example is the "I am your father" quote from The Empire Strikes Back which has become so embedded in pop-culture to the point where people who haven't seen the film will know what you're talking about.

Yes on young guns 2.

Doc: “Billy!! Let’s finish the game”

Also

Billy: “yoohoo, I’ll make you famous”

So you think it's still reasonable to flag spoilers for a movie like Fight Club?

To be clear, I'm not referring in person conversations here, more online discussions and articles.

Unfortunately as I’ve read the manga and I didn’t like Alice in Borderland live action

I've always thought flagging spoilers was good manners, regardless of how old something is. Lots of people I know wouldn't know what Rosebud is and I would hate to ruin the movie for them.
