We love movies and even the theater but lets be real this is what its like

[Notorious 1 E.Y.E.]

From a marketing standpoint, I'll never understand why they show the soft drink ad right before the movie starts. Why not at the very beginning of the previews so you can manipulate the customers into thinking they need an ice-cold Coke/Pepsi before the show begins?

"fukk now I want a Pepsi, but the movie is *finally* starting after 30 minutes of previews so I'll just keep my ass in this seat."

because they want you to see the trailers
you already paid for the movie

Commercials pre-movie are terrible. Especially ones you already see on tv

Trailers are fine, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen 7 of them

This actually backfired for me for Dr. Strange 2. Show started at 3:25 so I thought I had until atleast 3:40 before the movie started. I walked in at 3:35 and the movie was already in the middle of the first action set piece
DS2 was playing on every screen at this theater and they cut out all the nonsense to get at many screenings as they could on the schedule.
I'm a Regal guy and they let college kids direct their commercials and they were the worst.
"You didn't know that"

Alamo don't do that

The previews before movies are usually of shyt that's about to drop that's fire OR things people want to see

For DS2...the previews were Avatar 2, Thor: Lover and Thunder, and then a Disney+ plug

I love film, have absolutely no desire to enter a theater again, and I'm okay with that.

Remember a theater experience without phones?

The regal coca-cola ads can die

As can the M&M ADS

Going to the movies is always hype to me.

Previews ain't that bad no more. And mufukkaz don't know that the start time you see is when the PREVIEWS start, not the actual movie.

AMC can suck my dikk.

Then nikkaz wanted 20 dollars for a matinee yesterday

Went to NCG theater instead and paid 5.99, well actually 1.23 since I had a 5 dollar off coupon

Yeah the trailers are whatever, other than the 8 minute Pixar or animated music trailers

It's about the commercials and theater ads...daworst
