I went to see Daredevil last week, and that was the first movie I had gone to that had commercials before the trailers. I may just have not noticed the previous ones (last movie I saw was Star Wars episode 2). I thought it was rather absurd to advertise for television shows at a movie theatre.

Is it not enough we pay the theatres 20 bucks to get in, and another 20 for a few things to eat that they have to subject us to commercials. If I wanted to pay to see a commercial, I would watch cable at home.

Monster Garage rocks...



I voted if it lowers the ticket price, I'm all for it.



It won't lower the ticket price though..so in other words, I pretty much agree with this.
