Yeah but that falls firmly into the second camp of my argument. Maybe I didn't make it super clear but I don't think spoilers for the Matrix are a thing we should be complaining about, same for things like Star Wars and that applies doubly so to classic literature like Romeo and Juliet.

But it's not logical to discredit somebody's feelings for something like, and just throwing a random movie out there, Eight Below. It's not a household title and there's a copious amount of media out there to sift through, enough for you to be able to dedicate your life to movie watching and still not even scratch the surface.

And some people really care about their spoilers. It doesn't really bother me, but I'll defend those that it does; Especially when the typical argument discrediting their emotions is one grounded by emotion and not fact.
