But anyways, last night when I went to see POT3, the lights dimmed and there was the usual string of advertisements, ad's before movies don't really bug as much as some, in fact some of those commercials look rather cool on the big screen, then there was the previews, again that didn't bug me as I know movie trailers are a necessary evil, then came the "Our Feature Presentation" graphic followed by.....more trailers! And "that" is what bothered me, hey I don't mind them trying to squeeze as many ad's as possible before the film, that's the nature of the beast.

It's just annoying telling people that the movie is going to start right now..... But only after you watch these two remaining trailers first.

I mean why don't they do ALL of the ad's first, then do the graphic...then the movie, it would still take the same amount of time and not fool the patrons.

Aw well, minor quibble in the grand scheme of things but still a quibble none the less.

I'd be disturbed, as well. It makes no sense to me.
