Five Worst Kept Movie Secrets Ever

Spoilers are a common thing these days but even with that creators do still try to keep things a surprise. Some do it well, for instance when Independence Day came people didn't know who was in it or what it was about-they just wanted to know how the White House gets blown up! However very often the secret can't be kept and becomes public knowledge. Most recently they did everything they could to keep the fact that Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield were in the new Spider-Man movie but most had figured it out. 

Here are five more times when something that was supposed to be a big surprise was known to fans long before they saw the movie. 

Star Trek Generations

This in the days when the internet was still kinda new so spoilers weren't rampant like they are these days. And yet, the fact that Kirk was going to die was the worst secret ever. Everyone knew that was going to happen. Trek is usually better at keeping there secrets. Even worst was Into Darkness, they tried desperate to keep the identity of the villain secret but who didn't know it would Kahn?

Star Wars The Force Awakens

I really think that the creators thought people didn't know that Harrison Ford wanted the character to die in Jedi. It wasn't much of a leap to figure Han Solo wasn't meant to survive this movie. Which of course he didn't. I've heard Darth Vader being Luke's father in Empire was spoiled but I was to young to remember. 

Justice League

I don't get this one. They clearly wanted Superman's resurrection to be a surprise in the movie. And yet Henry Cavill participated in all of the publicity before the movie came out. What was the though process there? Did they think people were that stupid? At least the end of the whole movie wasn't spoiled like Batman V Superman's was. Talia's role in Dark Knight Rises was spoiled but that movie was horrible anyway. 

Avengers Endgame

While pretty much everyone assumed Tony Stark would not make it out of the final Avengers movie, it was all but confirmed when the trailer for Spider-Man came out. Not only did it confirm Spider-Man would survive, but the lack of Tony Stark in the trailer pretty much confirmed he would not. Granted everyone probably figured the dusted heroes would be back but why confirm it? And it was also nice of the trailer to spoil the big Ant Man moment when he first shows up. Kudos for the Black Widow being killed off that was a good surprise. 

The Sixth Sense

Sometimes it can go another way. The secret may be kept until the movie comes out, but after the movie has come out is another story. I don't think many people can see the Crying Game today without already knowing that secret. Or Fight Club. And the worst has to be this movie, is there anyone who doesn't know the line "I see dead people" and how that applies to Bruce Willis?  It's just like with "Old Yeller", there's nothing like a million parodies to completely spoil a movie.
