Line 104: This is especially the case when the surprise twist involves a [[Shipping]]. We get such hilarity as "Which girl will [[Harry Potter (novel)\|Harry Potter]] choose? Harry/Hermione." * Granted, not including the pairings in the summary is practically asking the rabid shippers to flame you. ** The best summary of a story I've ever seen, for a ''[[Death Note]]'' fanfiction: ''{{spoiler\|''What if Rem never finished writing L's name in the Death Note? How will L cope with the loss of the only father figure he's ever had in his life?}} May contain spoilers.'' Just in case there was any doubt at all, the story is '''''called''''' {{spoiler\|''Watari''}}. * The summary of ''[[Thirty Hs]]'' is basically a summary of the events of the first few chapters. Line 290: * Trailers of ''The Kindred'' and ''Centipede'' spoil the demise of the monsters. * The trailers for ''[[Scott Pilgrim vs. the World]]'' give away the fact that {{spoiler\|one of Ramona's exes is not an ex-''boy''friend}} which was supposed to be a minor twist. * Not exactly a trailer ~~''yet''~~, but ~~the~~ [[The New York Times]]' profile for the ~~upcoming~~ adaptation of ''[[Here There Be Dragons]]'' flat out advertises what was supposed to be a big surprise at the end of the book, namely that {{spoiler\|John, Jack and Charles are J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, and Charles Williams.}} * The trailer for ''[[The Town]]'' has a fairly mild example, in that {{spoiler\|The last line in the trailer is actually the last line in the film.}} Granted it's tough to tell outside of context. * ''[[Arlington Road]]'''s main plotline involves whether or not the Tim Robbin's character is actually a domestic terrorist or just a regular guy. If you've seen the trailer, however, you know the answer. In fact, Jeff Bridges spends much of DVD commentary complaining about the film's tell-all marketing.
