The time a movie is scheduled to start and the time it actually begins seem to be getting further apart. Take this story from a frustrated moviegoer who saw “Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol” in New Jersey over the weekend.
“The show time was 1:10 p.m., but the movie started sometime after 1:40,” he said. “There were lots of trailers mixed with advertisements for the theater and IMAX. Every time we thought it was over it, it just kept going.”
And he’s not the only one who’s complaining.
it's nuts. We paid to get in there and therefore i think the advertising is a bit of a dirty tactic. I would imagine it is at least somewhat determined by the theater because there is another person on this very thread saying that his USA theater only advertises other movies.

Any more I usually try to go as late as i can to avoid that. I'd usually arrive around the time the show is said to start - and by the time i got to the show (after paying for tickets and snacks) then i would only really watch a few minutes of trailers
