Nothing better than a show that makes you cry...

When you watch something and it brings out an emotion in you, even if you perhaps know the ending... Its an amazing thing.

I finished the first season of Arrow last night and have to admit, I cried through a good deal of the end.  It was pretty freaking amazing and I honestly loved it.

On the flipside, I actually called part of the ending after four episodes.  I hope this doesn't give anything away, but....

SPOILERS!!!!!

Sho, in case you haven't seen it, here's what I said at the end of about 4 episodes in....

Seeing two best friends in love with the same woman, I KNEW the best friend would end up either as a villain or dead, but only after the girl had pretty much chosen him.  Guess what?  I was right.

And I think that was a big part of why I stopped watching it.  What I didn't plan on, was that it would be beautifully done and leave me crying as I watched it.  That, was worth it.

Spoilers and What they do to those around you...

The other day while I was at gaming, a few friends mentioned Guardians of the Galaxy and how amazingly great it was.  I've yet to see it, money constraints and all that.  So I commented to them about that.

And they seemed to have ignored it, or figured what they were sharing wasn't all that important.  Except it put elements into my head of 'OH, look for that... And hmm, wonder what that means?'

When I saw both Thor 2 and Captain America 2, I made sure to keep from talking or mentioning much of anything beyond 'HOLY CRAP... IT WAS AWESOME!!' to them.  Well, and laughing at someones pointed comment about 'Better put on my pants.'

But that was subtle and not something others would be looking forward to in a movie.

I remember a few years ago when I saw.. I think it was Harry Potter 6.  5 or 6, I know that much.  And I jokingly put up a status of 'Holy crap!!  When ____ and ____ happened?  Didn't see it coming.  And I loved when ____ happened.  So cool.'

The difference?  I could have been talking about a million scenes in the movie.  Nothing to say what I was actually mentioning.

Another time, after having seen The Expendables, I commented on what I loved.  'Explosions, fights, loud guns, sexy guys, burning rivers of fire, and explosions.  Did I mention explosions?'

Ok, I guess that time I gave away the whole movie, but at the same time you were expecting those things anyway, so did I actually give you any spoilers?

When someone says 'I haven't seen that yet' the polite thing to do, is STFU, or at the very least walk away so they can't hear you. Hard enough to avoid learning of things you haven't seen, without friends talking.
