What Won't They Show You Next?

You know how they run all of those commercials before the previews at the movies? The ones you think will never end? "FAN-DAN-GO." Yacking cell phone man. Be all that you can be. My friend turns to me and says "Instead of these commercials, why don't the theatres start running family snapshots...you know...the Johnson family vacation to Mexico, Theo's high school graduation, Wendy's baby shower." I had another friend who once offered up the idea that they run mug shots of criminals on the screen. America's Most Wanted. Now...on with the show. Great. You'd be twisting around in a quasi-darkened theatre trying to see if any of the patrons fit the bill. "Honey? Don't look...I said DON'T LOOK, but that guy over on the right, eighth row up, three seats in. Whaddya think?"




...NEXT SLIDE!!!

I think they should show episodes of "Good Times" before the movies start. But nothing from the post-James era.
