    It's during the twenty. This guy comes on and it's like an episode of Cribs.

    "It's Deluxe son, deluxe. Superstar extraordinare, get it right."

    Funniest damn commercial ever.

    Anybody seen it?

    They play that one at the Cinemarks here in Plano, too. It is funny, though less so on each successive viewing.

    Wait a second. You don't like Lord of the Rings, but you like the commercials before the movies? WTF? :confused:

    There's actually two different commercials now featuring 247 Delux, and they're both hilarious - especicially when he's showing off his spinners / rims...

    I *HATE* commercials before movies.

    I almost always stand up and yell "We paid for a movie, not commercials!" Sometimes I just boo. Audience response is usually pretty supportive.

    Of course, it's becoming hard to find people to go to movies with me.... :p

    No, but I did notice that the commercial for movietickets.com (or whatever its called) with the woman with a thin face getting ready for a blind date while talking to the camera is the same woman in the Burger King commercials with the "Cat in the Hat" (she works at the drive through and has a sly look when she says "Please pull up sir." after regurgitating his rhyming fast food order)

    Why I notice these things, I will never know!

    Nice.

    Just out of curiosity, what does one have to do with the other?

    You know, though, what difference does it make if they're playing the commercials during The Twenty, which runs BEFORE the posted show time? Show up at the posted movie showtime, and you don't have to watch them.

    At least that's the way it's supposed to work. My town doesn't have a REG theater, so I have to go to Cinemark, which doesn't play the commercials before the posted showtime.

    I wonder if people, in general, would be willing to pay more in order to not get commercials at the theater. Woudl you pay, say $3 extra per ticket in order to go to a showing that was guaranteed to not have any commercials (including trailers, which are technically commercials, but which most people don't seem to mind and some people, like me, actually like).
