Going to the movies: How long are the coming-soons, etc.? Fer instance:
If the advertised start-time is 7:30, what time would the "feature presentation" actually begin? Thanks! |

Dude, the previews are sometimes the best part! You can't miss those! Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

7:30... a beer commercial or two, an ad for whitening cream etc. 7:45... 5 or 6 movie trailers 7:55... all stand for HRH while music plays and images of HRH farming, playing saxophone, smiling at old people move across the screen 8:00... the movie begins! | |

I'd say about 15 minutes here in Oakland, but when I was in LA the previews seemed to go on forever! My Legacy

30 minutes?! That can't be right? Can it? It is at my local Cineworld cinema. Went to a different cinema the other week and it was also about that long too. RIP | |

last time I went (two weeks ago), It hardly seemed like 10 minutes had passed before the movie was starting. 
I just realised the time you asked and how you probably don't need to know anymore. LAWD matthew  [Edited 7/9/09 21:06pm] 12/05/2011
