Message: <blockquote data-quote="Wrath of the Swarm" data-source="post: 1507406" data-attributes="member: 16402">There is a difference between having a surprise in the ending and having a surprise ending.When people are warned that a movie has a surprise ending, they begin to watch out for it.  When it comes, whether it was forseen or not, people feel that they expected it, and the surprise is ruined.If you were holding a surprise birthday party for a friend, and someone told your friend that they "might" have a surprise birthday party waiting for them when they got home, would you really not feel that the surprise was diminished?This person deserves denigration.  Not only was the possible impact of Van Helsing reduced, they like the D&D movie.  No death could be too horrible for such a one, no insult too vicious.With only a modicum of effort, the statement about the possible surprise ending could have been placed within the post itself, where no one would have come across it accidentally.  Shadowdancer instead felt it necessary to force anyone browsing to read the potential spoiler.But instead of striking a blow for spoiler-haters everywhere, Henry instead chooses to spend his time being concerned about the names directed at Shadowdancer.EDITED TO REMOVE INSULTS.</blockquote>
