Ha! We should be so lucky. We also get the ads and the promos for the
concession stand before the movie. I don't mind them, the ads are
mostly local content and it helps fill the time until the show starts.
But then, at the scheduled start time for the showing they run
anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes of honest-to-god commercials straight
from your TV set.
