Advice?

I'm just finishing up my vid for the Vividcon premiere show, and it's a movie vid, to a film that relies pretty heavily on its plot twists. It's not M. Night Shyamalan, but same sort of issues; part of the movie's concept is the mystery of what's going on.

I've already tested it out (accidentally, and thank goodness she didn't mind) on a friend who hasn't seen the film, and am fairly confident that I haven't given away all the plotpoints, but it's still spoileriffic, by nature.

So, for the vidshow, given that I won't have the option of a neat little summary on my webpage to warn the spoiler-averse to rent the movie first, would it be a kindness to have a pre-vid "Spoiler Warning! If you haven't seen the film and you don't like spoilers, now would be a good time to...er...close your eyes..." title? Or do you think it would distract from the vid itself or annoy viewers/VJ's?

if I hadn't been braindead and posting at 1:30 in the morning, I'd have thought to just ask you guys about that first

Hee. No problem. And no need to be paranoid. If someone sees a vid begin, doesn't recognize the source, and decides to keep watching, that is *their look-out* if they are spoiled for something they haven't seen yet. Plus? It's a vid show. There is a 99% chance that there will be *something* each person in the audience has yet to see. That's just a given.

Except me - I get to see everything first. ;)

Runs away, screaming the "BURNINATING" song at the top of her lungs

...ok, it's just me, right, whose brain went to the "Wonder if someone should vid/has vidded that..." place?
