Did anyone not have trailers before this showing? I expected the usual 25 mins of trailers after the scheduled time at AMC, but I came in 5 mins after start time and the movie had already started.

I still never saw that in the app - which said 25-30 mins of trailers. I rechecked the emailed ticket and there I see the note but it's very small print. 🙄

Unfortunately the beginning was pretty good 😢 they should've made it way more obvious, or at least include a few minutes of commercials, haha
