That the spoilers in this case are, in my opinion, integral to the plot.
If you want to go into the movie completely void of the general plot, I suppose that is your business, but I generally do not go into a movie without knowing the general plot, to which this particular "spoiler" we are referring to is a large part of. I mean the trailers themselves hint to the fact that this "spoiler" occurs.
To me a spoiler would be something like "driving in a convertable, Ben gets sniped JFK style."
But I do see where you are coming from. I would have liked to avoid any info about this movie altogether. This is not the sake for most movies, but I trust Kevin, and I know I would have liked it anyway. My particular spoiling of that spoiler was my own damned fault. I got it from newsaskew because I skimmed their intro and warning (missed the warning altogether it seems" read the article, or whatever, and surprise, it was spoiled. But I'm not overly disappointed that it was spoiled. I'm actually more disappointed at some guest-starring spoilers I received.
