The Burning Question*: Do you watch cinema trailers?

It’s Monday, so let TheJournal.ie distract you from the ‘serious’ news with one of life’s REAL dilemmas. (*not really)

WE KNOW HOW you feel. It’s Monday, you have the whole week looming ahead, and you have a lot on your plate.

So do like we do here in TheJournal.ie HQ and get stuck into a serious debate on one of life’s most pressing issues.

Possibly.

This week: A cinema trip can be quite the event. You’ve pre-purchased tickets, bought copious amounts of popcorn and chocolate (which you may or may not mix) and struggled with your 2 litre fizzy drink until you get to your seat. For some, the movie experience is not complete without paying full attention to the trailers. But for others, it is a pointless activity and that time should be spent talking, eating or – for some extremists – travelling to the theatre.

Which side of the fence do you land on?
