I hate the commerical ads. And I don't think they are on there way out. In the past, if a theater tried to show ads before the show people would complain and stop going to that theatre. But that was before 4 or 5 companies bought up all the independent theater owners. Now if you are upset with the ads you can complain but no sense in taking your money to another theater next time - they are showing the commercials too. I enjoy the trailers.

But I rarely go out to a movie any more. When I can buy the thing on DVD for the price of two movie tickets, I have a tough time stomaching the concept of standing in line, paying outrageous prices for the tickets, and even higher prices for the popcorn.

Maybe we're both whiny curmudgeons... I can’t *stand* the advertising before movies - I expect advertising to pay for things that are otherwise *free*. Maybe we’re both whiny curmudgeons…
