Any theatergoer here in the U.S. is inundated with trailers before every film. And before you say close your eyes and wear ear plugs for 20 minutes...
Today's decorum is the content within film trailers is public knowledge. There's no spoiling trailers. So for anyone trying to avoid a spoiler image... say what the Predator will look like... will be flooded with that image via screencaps headlining new articles, videos, and in your social media streams between the the time of the trailer and the film's release, regardless if you click on the content or not.

I don't go to the theatre. If so I'd mess about on my phone and/or listen to music during the trailers.
What do you mean by "there's no spoiling trailers"? Don't trailers spoil things?
IF and that's IF you really want to, you can avoid a lot. Unless you're an active member of the AvP scene, like a moderator on fansite or something
In my social circle I'm the only "nerd" when it comes to this stuff. So no one I know will be posting or telling me about it.
Pre having seen Covenant, a local website posted a picture that was a small spoiler. So I quit visiting that site. And many others for a period of time.
Since I don't go theatres, I had to wait until an official online version was released. That's a longer wait while there's even more info online.
Wasn't easy but I managed. Didn't see any footage before watching and didn't know too much.
