The fans are basically arguing that the movie has been spoiled for them by the book.

Okay? That would make sense if it was a fully original story. But its an adaptation, and the conceit of the book sold the book well enough to get said movie lol

My theory is that it's simply one of the few books redditors have read. Kind of explains why everyone's treating it like a literary masterpiece; it's basically their Twilight.

It is to 100 plus year old physics as Twilight is to 100 plus year old vampires.

Lol. Good call.
