TECH GURU SLAMS MOVIE THEATER for "Holding Audience Hostage" With Endless Ads!
Tech creator Tech Master slams Cinepolis for forcing viewers to sit through 20–30 minutes of ads before the movie. Here’s how parks, courts, and cinema-goers are pushing back.
YouTube's Tech Master is putting Cinepolis on blast, and his millions of followers are here for it.
The tech influencer took to his channel to vent about being forced to watch a whopping "20–30 minutes" of ads before his movie started, even after shelling out over ₹500 for a ticket. "Are you facing the same issue?" he asked his followers, igniting a firestorm of complaints from frustrated moviegoers.
This isn't just a one-off rant. A consumer court recently ordered a rival theater, PVR INOX, to compensate a man for "mental agony" caused by a similar ad marathon. The court even demanded that theaters print the actual movie start time on tickets, not the ad-filled pre-show time.
"Did I pay for a movie or for constant ads without a skip button?" one angry Redditor fumed. Another complained, "By the time the ads are done, the movie has lost its magic."
With audiences fed up and legal battles brewing, the message is clear: stop wasting our time. The question is, are movie theaters listening, or will they keep pushing their luck until everyone just stays home and streams?
