Not a trailer either, but the first time I recall getting “spoiled” was a pre-ESB People magazine cover with Yoda on it with a blurb along the lines of “Here’s Yoda! He’s a loveable Jedi Master!”

Sorry to resuscitate this old thread but I had to add this one I just saw recently.

**Clash of the Titans** (the remake) was just recently released to DVD. So what is smack dab on the cover of the box? Preseus holding up Medusa’s decapitated head!  
I know this is a remake and all but still there is an entire generation of kids that probably never saw the original.

And in _Titanic_ they ship sinks, which anyone who’s heard about the film knows! It’s in all the advertising!
