To Spoil or not to Spoil? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

WARNING: This post contains a few mentions of spoilers, albiet ones 99.99% of the movie fans have already heard of, so read at your own risk The main thing with spoilers (for me), is that I'm at least prepared for n major changes that will come rolling my way (the Scouring being cut, Saruman's revamped death sequence being cut, etc.); that way I will take them a bit easier & they don't nag at me for nearly as long. In FotR, Arwen being sent over Glorifindel caught me off guard, & I was wondering why the heck she was even there half of the movie. Certainly the same deal with Faramir ...the second I saw him take the hobbits to Osgiliath, it was a little hard for me to get my mind back in the movie. So, although sometimes spoilers give me more information than I want, I think I still lean towards them .
