With at least 8,000 showings around the country completely sold out, not every Marvel fan got to see Avengers: Endgame on opening night.
Some who did see the new film first watched all 21 Marvel Cinematic Universe films that came before it in an epic 3-day marathon.

Meanwhile on the internet, those who haven't seen it -- and also plenty who have -- are reminding other fans not to spoil the movie with the hashtag #DontSpoilTheEndgame.

It's a hashtag that Marvel itself has endorsed. In fact, the directors (brothers Joe and Anthony Russo) pleaded with movie-goers not to spoil it in an emotional letter earlier this month.

After the movie came out on Thursday night, some fans were reminding each other of the importance of taking the Russo's request seriously.
This is Dr Strange. Dr Strange has seen the outcome of Endgame 14,000,605x. Yet Dr Strange did not spoil the Endgame.
