    So what’s AMC going to do? Aron says the trims won’t come from the NCM ads. Those are contractually obligated.

    Trailers. They’re cutting trailers in order to show you more commercials.

      I love/hate the wording. We can’t cut the ads, we’re contractually obligated to show them. It’s not our fault. Thems the breaks sometimes. Aw shucks. Golly gee wiz.

      Generally people don’t mind the trailers. My local (non AMC) theater shows 2-3 trailers before the film. That’s 5-10 minutes total. But I don’t go to theaters to see ads for Jeeps and toothpaste.
