On a tip from my brother, I went over to Fandango to look at the trailer for a new movie called Spotlight. I clicked on the start arrow and ended up having to see 2 video ads before I got to the trailer.
So, in order to watch the commercial for the movie - it's a commercial; I went in search of a commercial because I wanted to see a commercial. And as if that's not bad enough, I had to sit thru a coupla commercials I didn't wanna see before they'd let me see the commercial I did wanna see.
I'm trying to decide if I'm a little bummed and/or aggravated at the extreme levels of monetization going on, or if I'm more than a little impressed that somebody's figured out just how captive we are to this kinda crap.
Or maybe I'm just pissed that I'm willing to put up with the whole mess. My head hurts - I may start drinking early today.
