This reminds me of advertising in movie theatres now. I show up to a movie 15 minutes late to skip the insane number of ads.

- xp84 3y agoPreviews are pretty annoying to me too but I’m curious: if you like movies, how do you find out about them? I don’t watch ad-supported TV and opt out of ads wherever I can (YouTube Premium, Hulu etc). When I was in my early 20s in the 2000s, I could go to a theater and just know what the deal was for 90% of the movies that were playing at a 20-plex automatically just from TV ads and a few late-night-show actor interviews. Today I know zero (other than recognizing which one is some Marvel thing). If you dropped me off at the movies I wouldn’t know what to watch without googling them all.
- sonicanatidae 3y agoI'm more of a reader than a movie watcher, but the way I find out about new movies: 1. Word of Mouth 2. Internet reviews 3. IMDB 4. it's up on l33. ;)
