I saw "Episode I" pretty much spoiler free. The internet was new to me at the time, so I wasn't into the whole spy report scene, I'd never even visited TFN. All I'd seen of the film was the Anakin shadow teaser poster, the "Duel of the Fates" music video and a picture of Darth Maul on the back of a box of "Shreddies". The only thing I really knew that could be considered anywhere near spoiler material was that Darth Maul's saber had two blades. I didn't even know who Jar Jar Binks was for sure, all I remember is a friend telling me he heard that he was the first openly gay character in the "Star Wars" series.
"Episode II" was a different matter. I read quite a lot of story reports, and message board threads. I downloaded all the trailers, and saw the music video on TV. I didn't really know the entire story or the chronological events of things, but I knew a lot of key events and basically how it ended. I knew Jango died, but I didn't know how. I accidently clicked on a picture link on TFN and found out that Dooku cuts Anakin's arm off, which I really didn't want to know.
I was spoiler-free with "Episode III" up until a few weeks ago, when I was completely bored out of my mind and headed to TFN to read a bunch of archived news. I also watched the teaser trailer yesterday. But at this stage I don't know anything that could ruin the film for me at any length. I've never watched "Clone Wars" either, so I haven't seen this new Grievous character at all, I just know that
he fights with multiple lightsabers[/spoilers]. I'll remain much more spoiler-free than I did with "Episode II" though, think I'll just stick with the trailers.
