In the 90's they were like 10 mins, 20 tops, and most of that was trailers for upcoming movies. It was great pre-internet.

Now they can go fuck themselves with their ads, right in the dickhole.

I remember being a kid and a movie at 8:35pm would have 2-3 trailers and the movie would start.

A decade ago, I noticed it was 10 minutes of trailers. And a few ads for random products showed up.

30 minutes of this? This is new to me.

30 minutes has been common for probably 10 years. Dunno what to tell ya. When I first started going to movies in the late 90s, I remember 15 min of trailers then so I dunno.
