Product ads at the movies!!!!

[LoomisFan]

Does it piss anybody else off that, when you're hoping for a bunch of good trailers, all you get are those stupid Body Fantasies commercials, or the Sprite Remix commercials with the gay-ass rappers, or the Levis commercial where the guy lassos his car (what the fuck was THAT one about?!).
Or, how about this ONE AD that I saw at Van Helsing...the fucking Fanta soda ad where all the women are singing that fucking stupid jingle in a dance-beat sorta way. I almost walked outta the theater, and the goddamn film hadn't even started yet.
Who ELSE is tired of seeing fucking product ads at the movies?

Doesn't bother me much. I can wait a few minutes for the trailers to start, what's the big deal? You have to understand that advertisements are everywhere, it's a reality these days.

Commercials? What Commercials? ;) The Loews Chains & AMC were showing them up the ass.... Some of em were amusingly entertaining but yes. If I wanted commercials i'd be staying HOME and watching them.

Since this chain DOES NOT DO commecials I love them 10X's MORE! :D

I hate commercials with every fiber of my being. The only ones I hate more than those are the uber-retarded Fandango commercials with the enormously stupid sock puppets

I don't know about the rest of you, but I find the Fanta commercial to be one of the most....disturbing and funniest thing I've seen on a long time...in a happy...Fanta way.

"Dont you wanna fanna Fanta? Dont you wanna a fanna Fanta? Dont you wanna fanna Fanta?....." :D


I dont mind commercials that much. I've never seen more than 4 at the movies and they are always somewhat short. I've made my peace with them.

Yes me. Angry Pimp. Not upset about something.


WHAT HAVE I BECOME?!

I saw that fuckin' Fanta ad at Spider-Man 2 today, as well as about four other commercials. Then I saw three trailers (one was for Blade: Trinity, though. That kicked ass).
I looked away from the Fanta ad, in fear that I might melt, like the Nazis in Raiders of the Lost Ark.

I have yet to see this ad pop up on the screens here on my end but I have seen it on tv though. Kinda stoopid but yet amusing at the same time. ;)

[Heavenley]

I gotta agree, absolutely hate commercials at the movies....last time at the movies there were so many commercials at the beginning, that it was just ridiculous..............if only there were the same amount of trailers :(

WANTA FANTA DON'TCHA WANTA FANTA DON'TCHA WANTA

I saw one in front of Spider-Man 2 for birth control pills.


Fuckin-HI-larious. Not the commercial itself, but that fact that it was for birth control pills. You just don't see that everyday.

That's fuckin' hilarious. Did they follow it with a commercial of scantily clad Maxim women (I saw that one at T3)? That would be priceless.

BTW, when we were watchin' the Fanta ad, one of my buddies turn to me and said, "What I wanna is to see them in their dressing room."
I almost busted a fucking gut.

[CMAGUS]

I dont think they should be allowed especially when I pay 10.00 to see a movie I dont want to see crap I can see at home

[Tweek]

i hate that fanta whatever commercial with every fiber of my being.

I was watching Ferenheight 9/11 yesterday and they showed 7 fucking commercials and then they moved to the trailers which I have found more to tolerate as years go by and they showed 2 fucking trailers when they usually show 5 but 2 fucking trailers and bombard me with about half a dozen of commercials 1 was a Ford driving commercial and I forget what the fuck the rest were they usually are all annoying anyways.

[CMAGUS]

I HATE more than anything those stupid ass Sprite commercials with that stupid doll that points. Of course its also very appropriate to show Viagara commercials before shrek 2 right after the fruitopia commercial which is after the car commercial and the car commercial is right after the stupid sprite commercial.

[Lindsey]

Another annoying commercial that they play in the theater, is the bod commercial. "Hot bod!" *Seductive voice* "I WANT YOUR BOD". Ugh...

They played TWO of those along with the Fanta ad.

[BorderEevilIII]

Went to see Farenheit 9/11 at The AMC in SF.......

<GROAN>


I haven't been there inawhile and wondered Do They Still SHOW Commercial Ads?


As soon as the lights dimmed....

My Fears came true..........


DAMN COMMERCIALS!!!!


If its like 3 I don't mind but what came out seemed like 6 or 7.......WTF?!?!?

If the chains rely on these sponsors why don't they show something MORE related to CANDY, Chocolate......... mmmmmmmmmmmm

Who wants to be reminded the hot new 2005 Car, or that Printer that you MUST hvae and does it all for you? If I am gonna be drowned w/ that I could have stayed home for that..... :rolleyes:
