I haven't gone to see a movie in years. If I paid to see a movie in a theater and they started showing me fucking ads (not trailers, full on ads), I'd walk out and get my money back.
I think that's the case for most people in this comment section. Coming in 30min after the supposed start time and not missing anything has been the standard for years. It's not like they interrupt the movie for ads, just come in later and skip them.
Oh man, could you imagine? I'd actually never go to a movie again if that became a thing. That'd be such bullshit.
