SEATTLE, WA – With Amazon now holding the rights to the 007 film franchise, the company’s CEO, Jeff Bezos, announced the first movie will pit Bond against his greatest enemy yet: ungrateful workers in fulfillment centers who want to unionize.
Heck, there was a toy Xenomorph for 1979’s Alien too! And that was even weirder because Alien was R rated and theoretically no children should have been allowed to watch it.
Back when it first came out, “Steve” was at a party and heard some people talking about the movie. He hadn’t seen it, and politely listened. He heard the entire plot, including all the twists and a dozen spoilers. Later that week he was with another group and they decided they wanted to see the movie. Steve didn’t want to spoil everyone’s fun, so he went, even though he thought he’d be bored.
Later, he wrote about how, even knowing the plot and the surprises, he was still on the edge of his seat for the whole movie.
There’s a reason people are still talking about this decades old movie.
Funny enough I haven’t actually heard a single spoiler for it. I only vaguely know about it, and it’s been on my “maybe watch if I have nothing else one day” list for at least a few years. I haven’t actively avoided it, but I haven’t actively tried to seek it out either. I’ll get to it one day, spoiled or not.

We had that toy as kids. We never saw the movie (still haven’t to this day), we just thought it was cool.
This is a good story.

Good story in any case.
If and when, you’ll probably realize that you’ve been watching spoilers for years and didn’t get the connection.
