So, I don't really care about this movie at all; I think the only Marvel movie I've seen is Guardians of the Galaxy. I also think you're really stretching the relevance here but I did have a question that you might be able to give a decent answer to.
So I was in a Discord chat and someone was all going crazy about the risk of spoilers ruining the movie and such. I said, if the movie can be ruined by spoilers then its probably not a very good movie anyway. In the ensuing discussion I pointed out that if it is ruined then the movie is entirely reliant on big surprises to hold a viewer's attention and not skipping good storytelling. Furthermore, there are many classic stories that are good regardless of whether you know what happens or not. In fact, the audiences for Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings largely knew exactly what was going to happen but it didn't ruin the movies because good characterisation, acting and storytelling is good regardless of whether you are surprised or not.
I was wondering what your thoughts related to the above are.
"If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind."
