Um, how is that freedom of choice? How about this, if the guy hates movies so much he can choose not to go to them.

Okay, it's not like the Constitution says "All citizens have a right to know when their entertainment starts, to the minute."

I'm not even annoyed by previews; I usually find them interesting. I think they've kinda become part of the movie experience. Commercials for Coke and stuff ebfore the movie can be annoying, they're usually short. The Twenty is a big joke, but it starts before the movie, so it's hardly infringing on my rights now is it?

Besides, it's nice to know that if you're running late for a movie, you've got about fifteen minutes to spare.
