“Messed up” an experience [on hold]












1














Suppose I am excited for a movie that will be releasing tomorrow but my friend just told me plot spoilers.



I want to say that he "messed up" the experience that I was going to have.



What can I use instead of “messed up” which can be more convenient or appropriate?
