AMC Finally Reveals Actual Movie Start Times After Years of Fan Demands
This year, legislator Martin Looney proposed a regulation in Connecticut, aiming to make movie theaters disclose how long the trailers will play before the main feature begins. The duration of trailers can significantly differ between cinemas, ranging from 15 to 30 minutes beyond the announced start time for a film. For regular moviegoers and those uninterested in repeat trailers, this could translate into a considerable waste of time. Given that most trailers are readily available online, it’s reasonable to assume that many people find them less engaging in a theater setting.
