Has 'Spoiler Culture' Ruined Twist Endings For Good?

Take it away, Chuck Klosterman! "Are screenwriters now affected by 'spoiler culture' before they even begin the writing process? If you know a twist will be unavoidably revealed before the majority of people see the work itself, and if you concede that selling and marketing a film with a major secret will be more complicated for everyone involved ... would you even try? Would you essentially stop yourself from trying to write a movie that's structured like The Sixth Sense?" [Grantland]
