When someone t;ells you what is happening in the movie, why bother gong to it.

Well everyone on myLot who read her discussion would not have needed to see the movie because she gave away the whole plot. I never give away the whole plot even if someone says that want to be sure if it is worth seeing. I will say "it is too violent." or "I would not let your kids see it, too much blood,"or "it is about a kid who pretends to be someone else"but that is all.

I do the same thing. once i Know what genre you like and don't like. I will warn you about a film.

Well she gave away the ending and that is what hurt it for me. We rented the movie and loved it very much, but I would have liked it more if it had remained a mystery until we saw the ending ourselves.

Well she gave away the ending and that is what hurt it for me. We rented the movie and loved it very much, but I would have liked it more if it had remained a mystery until we saw the ending ourselves. I mean it was a true story and very tragic at that. What that woman went through because no one except that preacher and only a few would believe her no one should have.

Well I did not ask about the movie. I just went to the interest watching movies here and found someone had started a discussion to find out if anyone had gone to see the new movie Changeling starring Angela Jolie. Of course, thinking it was a fantasy where Angela played a woman whose child was switched by fairies, I read the discussion and found the writer had given away the ending. I mean I am not stupid enough to go to someone and say tell me the whole plot of the movie and if I did, they would always leave out the ending or tell me to go see it myself or say "they will have it on dvds in a year's time.'"

Just give me the basic plot, but do not give the ending away. That is what she did. I mean it would have been classified as a true crime story if it had been made a different way. And it was as if the story was in Times or Newsweek or a paper most people could see on line and she had said "did you know they are making a movie about that skeleton they found in ---" or "the great grand father of so and so who wanted to find out about -- great great grand mother?" or something like that.

Well I have read books and have gone to see the movie, and I knew quite well that unless it was a Tv mini-series that ran for six to eight hours, the book and the movie were not the same. You would need to have for instance part one for two hours, part two for two hours more and show the whole book. I mean my husband has the whole Harry Potter series and he was able to point out what they had missed in the movies. But this mylotter told everything in the movie so that we knew what happened to the boy or what was assumed. (He might have gotten away, but maybe not.) so there was no mystery. She did not say she read the book The Changeling or the book on which The Changeling was based and gave us the name of the book so we cold go to our bookstore or local library, read it, and compare it to the movie. What she did was tell the most important parts and took away our curiosity.

But do your friends give away the whole plot and the ending of the movie as well? I can understand if they said the actress acted like a wooden fish or the costumes were not 1920s but 2000s. And they had tv when there was no tv at that time and that would give an idea that the writer and producer had no idea what they were doing or it only got one star, but this mylotter went to the movie and wrote what was going to happen, what happened to the boy, etc. so that when we did see the movie, I knew exactly what happened. I did not need even to watch the movie.

She did not talk to me personally, but she was on myLot and of course, started the discussion if anyone had seen Changling. I expected her to see it was based on a true story, etc. but not to read the whole plot and the conclusiion. And she did not even say "if you are on my friend's list and cannot see the movie, just pm me if you cannot wait for the dvd." Anyone who read her discussion knew exactly what would happen.

We have to know enough to see if the movie is worth watching, but there are somethings we do not want to know and want to find out for ourselves. If it was not a good movie and recommended, we would not have watched it. I mean don't the previews that we see on the movie screen, on the net, or on Tv, enough to give us the information and do not the reviewers give enough info. for us to make up our minds?

I will see the movie if it is good, but I would rather not know the ending. I really do not care about the actor unless the actor has a good reputation that he or she can really make one believe they are the actual person in the story. I also love mysteries, especially if they are true events. We did rent the movie and it was quite good. We might even had bought it or got it as a gift, but since my husband got als I have not been checking our dvd collection that much.

We saw the movie on Dvd and loved it. It was the type where it was based on a true story and if she had given part of the plot or if there had been a news story such as young man weeps over mother;s grave and we learn that he was searching for her while she was looking for him and they decided to make a movie of her search, then I would not mind. My husband got a book on audible about a Jewish resistance group and I heard the whole plot on iPOD, but I got him the movie because we wonder how different the movie is from the actual book. But this was the actual whole plot including the conclusion.

I do not think you would want a line by line description or not what is going to happen in the end, and all the scenes in the movie. I can understand if you bought a book and you wanted to see if the movie adhered to the book, but surely you would not want someone to tell what happened at the conclusion or the most important parts. That is what she did.

Oh I watched the movie. We got it on Dvd, and the ending was exactly what she said it was. If she stopped at the escape, then we could have found out ourselves or if we thought the boy who had been the changeling was in cahoots with the killer and was to keep parents for looking for their missing sons, I would have assumed that and been relieved that it was not so, but she told everything.

Most people do not want to know the whole plot or at least the part that matters. We want to read the previews and make the wrong conclusions and then go to the movie and see that we were entirely wrong. We did watch the movie on Dvd, as it was based on a true story or was a true story but it did not happen in my city so I had no where to find out about it. I might get it on bluray, as I do have a couple of gift cards, because it was really that good.

I am more interested in the story. I love mysteries and also true stories especially if they are about the 2nd World War, or someone who escaped Communism, the Nazis, or other evil dictatorships. Besides even though I have my favorite actors, there are probably some movies that they have been in, that when someone says "Isn't that===?" they put on a disguise and pretend that they are not them because they were embarrassed to ever be in that movie.

The trouble was that I did not ask this person about the movie. She wrote the discussion and asked if anyone had seen the movie Changling starring Angela Jolie and of course, I went to the discussion and expected her to say it was about a missing boy and his mother's efforts t find him, that there is a murderer in it, it was based on a true incident, and it also stars, etc. etc. and that would have satisfied me. But she went on in the discussion to give not only the synpnosis of the movie but the ending, etc. who was was, and what would going to happen.

It was a good movie. We rented it on DVd and loved it, but we knew what would happen next and it toned down the suspense. I sort of love the suspense.

That would be a good idea. She did not even give a warning. She just rambled on how much she enjoyed this movie Changling by Angela Jolie and since she loved the actress so much, just rambled. I could have done the same thing about a movie years ago by Gregory Peck , but i would not do that as he was one of my favorite actors. The trouble is if you like a certain actor, you forget and start giving away plots, etc.
