What's everyones fav. pre-movie commercial lately? I used to think they were all so bad, but there are some good ones now! I thought the Soul hamster commercial was hilarious - those hamsters cracked me up!

They are generally very annoying. The Orange Wednesday ones are pretty funny sometimes, however...

Wish they would stop with advertisements at the cinema. Never use to have them.

Yeah, they need to stop showing commercial at the theater before movies are shown

I agree, unless they are going to lower the goddamn ticket or concession prices it is nothing more than an unjustified nuisance to the audience. Unless i am at a discounted or Dollar theater, having to sit through commercials before the previews always frustrates me. I know it supposedly helps theaters in housing costs but since when did we need megaplexes and three IMAX screens in one frackin cinema? How about figuring out ways to lower the prices of tickets and concessions? I don't see whats wrong with simply showing the advertisements before showtime. Showing them to the people whom get to the theater early seems like a fair compromise.

till then, boot leg

I don't actually mind them, providing they don't cut into the movie watching time. If they start while I am sitting there well before the movie starts, it doesn't bother me.

true, but also sometimes i get some food as the commercials are being shown

It has to be the Orange adverts with the Michael Madsen and Val Kilmer ones being the best of them so far. The Darth Vader one was funny though... I just wish they weren't just movie commercials.
