That "spoiler" is as long established and infamous as "Aeris dies". It's like the defining thing about Gwen Stacy. So no, it's not a spoiler. You should be directing all that rage towards yourself for living under a rock all this time.

So people who don't read comics and want to enjoy movies loosely based on them without being spoiled should forget about that because is their own fault for not knowing everything any comic fan knows.

Such a nice, warm and welcoming fandom.

Her death seems so much more than just a spoiler , it really shaped and changed comics history.

You said yourself, "shaped and changed comics history".
Why is surprising it is a spoiler for someone who doesn't read comics?

You kinda have no right to be getting so upset about "getting spoiled" by something that's been well known for over 40 years, though. That's the thing.

Yeah, yeah, I get it, no fandom is worse than an established comic's fandom. New fans aren't welcome if they want to experience everything for fucking first time, because they should just know all the important plot/defining moments before even seeing a non-completely-faithful adaptation of it.

So please, just keep treating new fans like shit for not knowing something you seem to consider as obvious as the sky being blue, so you can keep feeling "superior" in the serious business comics and its adaptations are.
And fuck anyone who dares to say you are an ass and lack of any common courtesy, right?

No one is feeling superior. If that's what you are getting out of this then that is your own damn fault.

We are simply tired of having people come into the established fandom and rather than the newbies adapt to the fandom, the entire fandom MUST adapt to the newbies or some of the newbies, like you, lose their collective shit.

You are why my husband calls 'movie fans' of comic properties 'tourists'.

Please stop feeling entitled to experience everything as 'new'. You don't get to. You did not pay the price of admission (being born at the right time, picking up a goddamn comic book when it wasn't cool to pick up a goddamn comic book). There is a statute of limitation on your right to be outraged over not getting to go into everything fresh.

Cope.

Funny thing is I don't read the comics either and I have no plans on seeing the movie but I knew Gwen Stacey was going to die just through pop culture osmosis. Like how I have a friend who has never watched the Star Wars films but she knows that Darth Vader is Luke's father because the storyline is such a part of our general pop culture. How did you not know this?

Hey, guess what, anon?

I did not know that Aeris dies!

Wow, would you look at that, it's STILL A SPOILER.

Re: DA

(Anonymous) 2014-05-19 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah no, Gwen's death has been around since before you were born. It's only a spoiler to you because you live under a rock.

I just want to point out that I didn't know she died either (but I have no interest in Spiderman one way or the other). And as rude as everyone in this thread is being, it's unfair to call someone dumb for not knowing about something just because they happen to be young, or get into the fandom late.

I apologize for my poor conduct in the presence of one such as yourself.

I shall bow before your greatness, O Enlightened Comic Book Nerd. The time and money you have invested in reading every single issue and crossover of Spiderman is truly a sight to behold. You are truly the Truest Fan Who Ever Fanned, and I can only hope to emulate your geekery.

Does that stroke your ego, anon? Does it make you feel meaningful and important? Does it fill the existential void within your soul? ;)

Knowing Gwen Stacy dies isn' t really True Fan territory. I have never touched a Spider-man comic in my life, and I know that one. It's quite possibly a spoiler, but it's not True Fan-worthy.

Re: DA

(Anonymous) 2014-05-19 07:06 am (UTC)(link)
Dude, I'm a complete casual who has never read a single Spider man comic in my life yet even I know Gwen dies. Like others have said, it's like the single most defining thing about her character: she's Peter's blonde love interest who dies. Calm your hurtbutt.

Are you the idiot over on Fanficrants last year that was bitching and moaning about being spoiled for the Hobbit book in a fanfic header for the movie?
