Theatre chains still refusing to believe that they priced themselves out of customers. Fifteen dollars for 15 cents worth of popcorn anyone? How about we show you an advertisement or two without reducing the entry fee (shouldn't viewing adverts cause the price to fall?). We need cheap theatres for the masses again.

they are called big screen TVs. Bright and in focus.

One or two advertisements? It's at least 15 fucking minutes here. I stopped going to theaters.

Last time I went it was nearly half an hour of ads (if you include movie trailers)

Trailers are 100% ads.

Yeah, I saw Thunderbolts, and wasn't prepared. I won't ever be back.
