Mine is Dead Man, with Johnny Depp, directed by Jim Jarmusch. Brilliant.
We were in the middle of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire when the little one's friend rang the doorbell wanting to play.
Will, if you're reading this I'm still mad at you for spoiling Harry Potter for me.
As the wise Germans put it, "Wie schade."
But in all seriousness, did I serious spoil it in a world where people scream that line on internet forums?
Actually yes. I've never seen it anywhere before. I never paid attention to anything on the internet about Harry Potter because I really didn't plan on reading it. So even if I did see it it didn't mean anything to me because I didn't know any of the characters any way. But then my little one wanted us to read it together so I bought him the entire box set last summer and we've been reading about half a chapter every night before bed. He got the DVD box set for Christmas so every time we finish a book we watch the movie. It's been lots of fun. I just wish I didn't know . . . THAT now.
Ah. Well the joy and agony of not knowing context makes the spoil rather trivial in the long run. Don't think about it and it all falls into place.
