One of my earlier Hero Worship columns was Are We Ruining Moves For Ourselves?, discussing the idea of overanalyzing early promotional material for the movies we are most looking forward to. Back then, I was talking about the first images of Henry Cavill’s Superman and Anne Hathaway’s Catwoman (I know, right?). But looking back at that piece, it’s sort of like stomping on a few random ants but never bothering to take out the ant hill. Over analytical fandom is just a symptom of a larger epidemic.
Mother of the Bride Review: This movie is an embarassingly silly and crigny watch with no soul or substance.
The Guardian Of The Monarchs Review: This documentary evokes a profound sense of sadness as it sheds light on the shortcomings of investigations and raises crucial concerns regarding the perils confronting environmental defenders.
Thank You Next Review: This is an engaging and introspective watch about modern dating and the depths of relationships.
Actually, it's the directors who ruin movies, not the fans.
The fans didn't hire Ben Affleck to play Batman.
If you are going to let a couple spoilers ruin a film or you was it really a good film to begin with?
Totally agree with this article. Some of the most enjoyable movies ive seen were when i knew nothing about them. High expectations and hype from marketing (done largely to capture an audience for financial gain) ruin your viewing experience. Trailers usually always spoil a few of the good scenes just so they can bring in more people and make more money. The industry wouldnt exist without it though unfortunately
I actually think this is an interesting talking point for a good discussion. I've been overly hyped up by the marketing machine myself only to be left feeling a little underwhelmed by what I just saw.
