It's also older than every single person that posts on this board. To expect not to be spoiled at this late date is completely unreasonable. -- nm - TWuG Mar 6, 13:53 7
- Although by the films age that would also mean nobody saw it in theaters and would likely view it at a later date vs. a new release -- nm - Bacon Mar 6, 13:54 6
  - That's still, IMO, unreasonable. No one is even alive who saw Shakespeare perform and just saying the names Romeo and Juliet - TWuG Mar 6, 14:02 5
    - Romeo and Juliet is a title of a play/movie. spoilers - Bacon Mar 6, 14:12 4
      - IYO the age of the viewer/reader should control. IMO the age of the work should control. Reasonable care - TWuG Mar 6, 14:16 3
        
        it's a 500 year old play that defines the modern concept of tragedy. The concept of spoilers in regards to it is baffling. -- nm - Reagen Mar 6, 14:21 1

        I have had little issues with ST spoiling things. We do a pretty good job. As long as it doesn't change it's fine as is -- nm - Bacon Mar 6, 14:17
