I can't agree with not going to a board before seeing a movie. I've found a few low scored gems this way, if the majority of the post titles are along the lines of "surprisingly good" and "why the low score?" it's an indicator the movie is worth a try - if it's in my favoured genres of course.
At the same time I've (I think) avoided some duds when a good chunk of the thread titles are about it being boring or ambiguous or illogical or having a nothing ending.
I've come here halfway through some movies (the latest being 'the wind') because I suspected they were going nowhere and that was confirmed by the post titles. Didn't waste any more time on it, plenty of other movies and shows to watch.
It's rare that I find clear-cut spoilers in thread titles like this one, 90% of movie's pages are fine.
If I was constantly seeing spoilers I wouldn't go to boards ahead of time, but it's not been the case.
The most annoying thing about blatant spoiler posts is when the op is reminded that spoilers are not cool and they get instantly on the back foot about it and refuse to acknowledge it's an issue. The OP here has not been an ass about it to be fair, but then again their assertion that the girl's death ruins the movie (even if she had actually died) is utterly baffling.
