Thanks for that.

To avoid any misunderstanding down the line, can we agree a date by 
which we can assume people will have seen the movie, and thus after 
which time anti-spoiling prefixes and top space won't be needed? Do 
we need to wait for the film to have come out in Poland (according to 
IMDb, 3rd January), will the Russian release date (24th December) be 
enough, or because the vast majority of us are either in the UK or 
North America, should 28th November (by which time the film will have 
come out in most of Europe and Australasia, and presumably everyone 
here who's going to see the film at the cinema will have seen it) be 
enough?

I'm not trying to make trouble or be pedantic, it's just that from 
past experiences on film-related online communities, it's usually 
helpful to be clear on these matters to avoid arguments.
