[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 8390958, member: 6704184"] If the title or OP has a clear "no spoilers" tag/request, sure. IMO such a thing can't just be implied and expect people to feel beholden to...an implication that it'd be reasonable to request a thing. They're both old and well known. Hell, the star wars one is at least a surprise in the film. The Rand thing is...completely obvious. Anyone reading the books knew as soon as the character's relationship to the thing he eventually did the thing to was made clear...in the first book...knew that it was going to happen. It would literally be a gigantic "checkov's gun" writing problem if that didn't happen. This is like getting mad that I say that the good guys win in [given non-gritty fantasy property with a rep for classic good vs evil narrative]. (and also, I didn't spoil anything) Okay, show where I have "continued to spoil things" about WoT in this thread. Okay. Have I spoiled any elements of the show [I]at all[/I] in this thread? I mean I guess I took part in an exchance about what Rand's dad looks like, which "spoils" that the old guy is Rand's dad, but I'm not gonna take seriously any claim that this is an actual spoiler. No, I'm not. It isn't a form of social domination. It's having a normal discussion about a topic where no request for no spoilers has been made. The OP had no "no spoilers" tag, and I've spoiled absolutely nothing about WoT in this thread. Garth did a spoiler on a major (but incredibly obvious and basically inevitable) plot development, and edited his post when asked to. Since that interaction, I've mentioned fewer details of the plot of the story than some of the people who have tried to chastise me for my stance in this thread! :ROFLMAO: And you comment above on agency is such absolute rubbish I can't even meaningfully engage with it. What utter nonsense. Good thing it isn't. Feel free to show what spoilers I've thrown around casually without warning. Most of what I've seen on twitter has been positive, as well, but that might be that I'm not super deep in the fandom twitter space. Yeah it worries me a tiny bit, but I'm hopeful that it will be fine. The only thing I've disliked so far of what we've seen are the swords. They're generic katanas, instead of the unique and very distinctive blades of thebooks, which very much have a canon appearance, and have been forged in real life and gained author approval of the look. To be fair, as Dan Casey put it in his trailer breakdown, that guy hates telling his son [I]anything! [/I]:LOL: [/QUOTE]
