As it says in the titles really, I was having a discussion with someone who said that If you know what's going to happen in a story, it's proven you enjoy the story more, the anticipation and build up to it makes it more satisfying, but I disagree.
Do y’all read them and if so do you agree?

Why though? Doesn’t it spoil the surprise of what’s to come?

I try my very best to avoid them but sometimes it's impossible.
My wife suggested we wait until the GoT finale and then binge it and I would absolutely LOVE to but I was like "We literally can't, there'll be spoilers everywhere." We may attempt to binge the final 3 episodes the day after the finale. It's also the reason that I'll be seeing Endgame as close to the release as possible, and the internet will be full of spoilers. With lesser-known things I like to save up episodes and binge rather than watch week to week. |

Depends, I avoid them for the things I'm more interested in. So I'll avoid Westworld spoilers like the plague, whereas some shows I enjoy I'll probably still read them.
I don't go cinema massively often so if I do it's for something I want to watch unspoiled. |

With reading spoilers I think you can enjoy the surprise twice as well.
Reading them you have a ‘wtf how does that possibly happen’ moment and then you get the same enjoyment once again when you actually watch it play out. |

Sometimes can't help myself but for stuff I'm really invested in no. I always want to go in cold.
Especially for twist endings etc. Even knowing there's a twist ahead of time spoils it as you inevitably start guessing what sort of twists could occur and spoil it for yourself. I want to be left gobsmacked. |

I always read spoilers (and the last few pages of books). I hate myself a little bit afterwards but I can't help myself

depends on the show, with reality shows i don't really care if i know the outcome because i watch for the contestants/cast... with scripted drama i don't even like to know i'm gonna be surprised
