 Thanks for all of your great insight. I always knew that theaters relied on concessions and what not to make their money, but why has it just been in the last 7 or 8 years that the commercials have begun to show up? And mostly, how do these distributors harness this power? At some point you'd think the studios and filmmakers and theater chains would say enough is enough and find a way to cut this middleman. |
In the uk, im sure we have had adverts, including tv style, for a long time. The generic one is the add for the local Indian just round the corner. I used to have a dvd with 10 or so classic cinema adverts, including a 60/70s ad for clarks shoes, with twiggy no less.
