Are you upset about movie trailers? I'll be honest I haven't been to the theatres in quite a while so I don't know if they actually show ads now but back when I was younger all "ads" before a move were just trailers for upcoming films which I loved because it let me stay current with what was coming out in the future. I don't mind that at all considering I'm not spending a lot of time at home Googling upcoming movies


There still are trailers which, even though they still are unasked for advertising, don’t annoy me much (except for the occasional pseudo-horror gruesome jump-scare movie trailer now and then. Seriously, being at a showing of a movie for people over 13 doesn’t mean we want to deal with that).

But there’s also, before those, ~20 minutes of "regular" ads. Ads for M&Ms. Ads for cars. Ads for some pseudo-luxury perfumes. Ads, ads, ads… even ads for the company that places the ads in movie theatres!
