Gli annunci con trailer richiedono solitamente 20-50 minuti prima dei film nei cinema. A volte sembra ancora peggio che in TV, soprattutto considerando che abbiamo pagato il biglietto (e spesso cibo e bevande molto costosi) che dovrebbero già coprire i costi di gestione di un cinema. Non sapere quando il film finisce effettivamente può anche rendere più difficile pianificare la giornata per essere puntuali altrove.

D’altra parte, può essere fastidioso quando le persone arrivano tardi al film cercando di evitare la pubblicità.

Cosa ne pensi? Tutte le catene di cinema dovrebbero informare obbligatoriamente sugli orari ufficiali delle proiezioni per evitare la pubblicità? La luce dovrebbe essere accesa durante la pubblicità in modo che sia più facile trovare i posti?

  1. The Cinema Industry is one of the industries that desperately tries to kill itself, I’m afraid.

  2. That’s the time when you stand in line to buy your snacks.

    >Not knowing when the movie actually ends can also make it harder to plan your day to be on time somewhere else.

    The ending time of the movie is literally what is written on the schedule at the latest. There are no “ads” in the schedule after the movie ends.

    I love to see the ads actually and I have never been to a cinema that exceeded 25 minutes

    And cinemas cant live by the ticket price alone. With streaming services and post covid they are all (maybe except the huge chains) not that profitable anymore 

  4. hmmm, I love watching new trailers on the big screen! Usually I only see about 3-4 local business ads …no big deal tbh

    ~15minutes of “pre-show” is also the rule of thumb since I remember going to the movies. it’s really not as big of an issue as you make it to be.

    Yes.

    I am living here for 3 years now and it’s ridiculous how long is it. I’m fine with movie trailers but beer/votenfall/banks/ice creams shit so annoying.

    Especially while marketing in Germany is very bad and 90% cringy stuff it makes it even more painful

  6. Marvinkiller00 on

    Well its either that, raising ticket prices by 5€ or shutting down.

  7. DitrianLordOfCanorem on

    Always plan in 25 extra minutes so you don’t have to sit through the ads

  8. iTmkoeln on

    Depends.

    I literally had one screening for Harry Potter back in the day that did not have any adds in before

  9. -GermanCoastGuard- on

    The light is actually on during the ads.

    You’re making generalisations about all cinemas, when it can actually differ from cinema to cinema, even movie to movie.

    I am at the movies with my friends at least once a week (almost twice a week before Covid „killed“ the film industry), we spend time sitting and chatting in the seats in the waiting area before entering the actual screening room, as its being cleaned when we arrive. Then it’s 10 minutes ads during which we chat. The ads end with the ice cream ads after which you’re supposed to grab one (years ago, when cinemas were full of an actual sales guy came to you). After the ice cream break it’s trailer time.

    We always know what we are in for, we plan and behave accordingly. We understand why the ada are necessary. We don’t understand why they need to keep 2 people standing at the entrance standing scanning your ticket, when a turnstile could do the same. Up until recently, we didn’t understand why we had to pay 50 cents more to order online, but they dropped it.

  10. OP spams their websites in various different language/national subs.

    never had 50min, but surely 15-20, which is a good buffer to get popcorn, nachos, a drink and then get settled into the right seat.

    I’m only ever going to one Cinema close to me that doesn’t show ads before the movie. The prices are a little bit higher of course to offset what they would make with ads, but since they are also a private enterprise and not one in a huge chain (like Kinopolis or UCI) I have no problem of supporting them in this way.

  13. notamusejustadrug on

    only for soulless big corporation screenings like this one, trailers before independent films are usually under three minutes

  14. fjusdado on

    Yes, sometimes is ridiculously long, and i’ve had the experience where they did put 0 adds, and many people missed the first 20 minutes…

    I don’t mind the trailers, but the shit of the windmills with samuel L jackson, the berliner beer, the vattenfall, the vodafone… it’s all ridiculous.

    Luckily it advanced, because when I came first to germany, at least in Cinestar Potsdamer Platz any move over I believe 2.5h, was having an “ice cream pause” in the middle of the movie, which made it VERY UNCOMFORTABLE with people coming to sell you ice cream to the screen.

    But still, I consider always a 30 min ads for any planning purposes.

  15. Id guess ive never seen more than 25 minutes at our local cinema.

  16. I usually just go there on time when the movie is scheduled to start, buy snacks, and by the time I reach the cinema and whoever has been to the toilet we have like 5 minutes of ads left. Otherwise if I dont plan to get snacks I go there like 10 minutes after its supposed to start.

  17. Novoruss on

    В чем проблема прийти на сеанс позже?

  18. PsychologicalBank488 on

    I never seen 50 min adds in a cinema 30 minutes is max and apart from snacks its the main source of income for a cinema. Most of the ticket money ends up in the payment for licensing fees the cinema has to pay to the studio making the movie

    Ands its the buffer time to finde your seat go to the toilet and to be late

  19. AttentionRude8006 on

    Yes, they are. I went to watch this exact movie and they played 35 minutes of ads.

    Movie theaters are turning into the physical version of Amazon prime video: you pay but are still blasted with this shit.

  20. It’s a luttle frustrating that the one place where I really can’t evade ads is the cinema. You just gotta estimate the right amount of late you need to arrive to dodge them.
