Ari, we are totally (excuse overused teeny-bopper expression) on the same wavelength here. That's exactly my approach as well. And it ain't easy avoiding spoiler media and friends. Recently I sucessfully avoided any comment whatsoever and saw the new Potter film in IMAX--- almost 4 weeks after it's first release. Avoiding Potter Press was pretty difficult but I managed. Loved the film, too! Joe B in NOLA

It (I think) is much more enjoyable seeing a movie "blind", with older movies its hard as I spent much of my childhood and teen years reading as much as I could on films, but luckily my memory is like a gold fish, so I usually can still go in fresh. AFTER I have seen it then I enjoy reading what others have to say about it.
