Letters: Tired of endless movie trailers

Re “Sneak peek fees pique studios,” Business, Feb. 19
Thank you for reporting on this irritating new practice, whereby studios are being strong-armed by theaters into paying to have trailers screened. Studios and theater owners decry losing audience share, but when they subject their audiences to 20 minutes or more of trailers, what do they expect?
I, for one, will express my displeasure by always choosing an independent theater.

Recently I sat through more than 20 painful minutes of inane trailers. I don’t pay to watch commercials. Give me a good “Road Runner” cartoon any day.
