The Star Trek Spoiler...only not really...

I saw on my yahoo feed, just now, that EW spoiled everyone about the identity of Cumberbatch's character in the new Star Trek film.

And, while I didn't read said article, because I avoid spoilers...so I can't be 100% sure of what they revealed...

...I wondered who these fans were that were just now spoiled.

Because the ads haven't been particular cryptic.

I was spoiled by the second long ad where he talks about his family. Even if that went over some heads. Did these people not see the Super Bowl ad...which is a complete give away to the identity of the character? I mean...HELLO?

I shall temper my response here...for those of you that, I don't know, I'm going to say haven't seen any ads...or the original series...or any of the original series films...and put it under a cut when I yell and shake my fists at the sky...
