Since this entire page is about corporate involvement, let’s focus on that a moment – $8.25 for admission, $6.00 for a small soda and some candy. For that, I get the movie, plus the following pre-show experience: One Coca-Cola-sponsored short film. One semi-funny Cellular Phone public-service advertisement from Cingular Wireless. One advertisement for Fandango. One advertisement for Cat in the Hat and Loew’s Theaters Gift Cards, One filmed-for-television advertisement for NBC and Discovery Kids’ Trading Spaces show, One advertisement for a GI Joe Toy Set with a free GI Joe animated-film DVD. And then the previews – one for Chasing Liberty, one for Cheaper by the Dozen, one for Shrek 2, one for Home on the Range, one for Agent Cody Banks 2, and one for Peter Pan. All in all, that’s a dozen advertisements from over 20 different companies that were shown prior to the start of the movie.
