Leia's, too.
Snape kills Dumbledore.
Rosebud is a sled.
Bruce Willis was dead the whole movie.
So was Nicole Kidman.
And Tim Robbins, too.
299 die.
The boat sinks and Leo freezes to death.
Verbal Kint is Keyser Soze.
The chick is really a dude.
Tyler Durden isn't real.
Soylent Green is people.
Charlton Heston was on Earth the whole time.
The dog dies.
The butler did it.
The butler didn't do it.
It's all a Nemesis plot.
I hope that about covers it.
6 months for movies. 1 month for TV. 1 year for video games. That sounds about right.
I'd add (and some of these are old school):
It was the postage stamp
She could have used the shoes at any time.
He really was Earnest
Conner makes the sacrifice
Cary Elwes is only mostly dead
Vesper will need a requiem
Bacteria does them in
Xavier makes it
Tony goes public
Joshing aside, as regards TV, I think 1 month is too short. Perhaps 1 year, since DVDs come out by then. I'm always happy, regardless, if someone tosses up a nice "spoiler" alert. Without it, I would have known the details of the animated Avatar in advance, which I'm glad I did not. I've also learned that most any thread by BBM should automatically be considered a spoiler alert for Lost, which I hope to see from the beginning one day.
