    Stop calling it a ‘preshow’. It’s wall to wall ads with a couple of movie previews that spoil the plot, thrown in.

      If you haven’t been, Alamo Drafthouse has an actual pre-show before the movie time. They will show clips related to the movie that you’ll see or clips from older versions of the movie you’ll see. Also old game/toy commercials like a time capsule and sometimes they’ll just show some funny Japanese game show moments.

      It’s one of the reasons I like going there, you aren’t inundated with ads and kind of get into the mindset for the movie before watching it.

      But how will I learn about all the new shows that will be cancelled in the first half of the first season?
