If spoilers really ruined a movie why would we watch anything more than once? huh? The fear of spoilers can ruin a movie only in the first viewing. Rewatching is a diferent expierence, whether a movie had a twist or not is a moot point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Uh, yeah, that's my point. The movies that stand the test of time don't do so because of the shock of a twist that can only be experienced once. It's the thrill of seeing the movie set up its payoffs that makes it watchable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because we gain different things from repeat viewings -- but those different things don't translate to or replace the cherished first experience.

Sure, but I wouldn't say my first time watching a movie was always the best one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
