I was watching a film yesterday (went in blind) and during the opening credits I saw something along the lines of “Special effects artist for the Creature”. I had no idea the movie was going to have a creature in it before reading that, so when it was eventually revealed later in the film I was kinda annoyed that I knew it was coming. Would have been pretty cool to have it sprung on me out of the blue, because there were no hints during the preceding part of the film that anything supernatural or weird was happening.

It got me thinking about what other films contain spoilers in the opening credits. Do you have any other examples?

    Uh, your phone autocorrected an existing name to a made-up name?

      It would probably help if I tried spelling it correctly in the first place. 😁

        I’m sorry for the passive-aggression. I was trying to be helpful in case you really didn’t know the correct spelling, but I didn’t need to tease you about autocorrect.

          No worries, I thought it was all going to kick off Reddit style. I hated posting there because someone usually found something negative to say.

      My phone corrects existing names to stupid brand names. No need to be hostile anyway. It’s just spelling.
