I don’t like to pay to see commercials (and, frankly, I wish they’d add a bit more variety to the slides; I get bored easily, and I’m chronically early).

No, the tech didn’t remember. As I’m sure you know, I don’t remember, personally . Far too young. Way too young. Only know about this stuff from sitting at the mother’s knee. As I have a particular war with this dude, it was a bit of pleasure to prove his assertion wrong.

However, I HATE the actual “commercials.” I feel like I have paid for the “honor” of being subjected to ads. UGH! Show me the movie trailors! That’s what I want to see before the main feature. I love the previews.

You mean to tell me this tech didn’t remember when they didn’t have commercials in the theater? What was he, like, 12? (G)
