adverts in cinemas be them the static ones or the kind you'd get on tv are the "i'll be in the popcorn queue" or im nipping out to the toilet kinda things
you cant skip them but you can skip out on them
afaik it costs the cinema the same ammount of dosh to screen a film to a full house or a few people (i know ive been in some showings where its just me and the projectionist)
so without the accurate figures at had of each screening they obviously have to recoup the loss of revenue from a ghost town screening by the concessions stand
advertisers know the audience might not show up till the trailers but they still pay just incase someone does decide hmm coke (i dont see pepsi adverts as the cinema i goto sells coke) i remember (kinda) the early 80's cinema adverts actually advertised the stuff you could buy in the foyer more than cars or tvs and the likes of today "king kone" and iir "crusader nuts" spring to mind
cineworld have carlton advertising which is a shame
i just so love the pearl and dean theme
