Yeah, I'm totally with you on this. My personal outer spoiler limit is six months after official release; after that, I figure I've made a reasonable effort and people should just take responsibility for their own spoiler-free experience. But, of course, I am one of those people who seeks out spoilers voraciously, so obviously there's not much overlap for my viewpoint and theirs anyway.
I don't think casting spoilers should count in most cases, either. Unless, okay, in Smallville if you have an established DC comics character like Lois Lane show up, I can see where that'd be a spoiler. But if it's just a completely new character? I don't see it.
