Am I the only one getting tired of all the crap we don't need being on the Trail Mix drives? Specifically AMC stuff. But it's not just AMC.... last fall there were about 10 other chains represented by little Muppets trailers.

I can totally see the film companies wanting to kiss ass by creating chain-specific content, but why can't they just send those chains a DVD or something rather than cluttering up the works for the rest of us? It's not as if they don't have the ability to do that. (I can already guess the answer...."money.")

I don't mind all the various 3-D vendors having their logos and stuff in there...that's understandable.

Rant over, I just wanted to get that off my chest.

Try the Canadian version of the Trail Mix and Deluxe drives. Not only do you get the AMC and Imax stuff, but you get it (and everything else) in both French and English versions!
