Young Guns 2, an 18 rated movie, playing at 6:45pm on a Sunday.
They've stuck it in a 2 hour 15 minute slot as well, and it's only 1 hour 50.

So at least 3/4 of the movie will need edited out because it's not suitable for the time of day it's being shown... meaning they need to fill the 2h15 slot, with at least 1h45m of adverts.

I never watch movies on cable over here because of that. 2 hour movies are always given 3 hour blocks on channels like FX and TNT. No way, rather rent them if I don't own them.

I'm generally not a fan of action adventure movies with no brain, that's why I couldn't stand Jurassic World

Skull Island does not look like my kind of movie, so probably won't waste time on it

"I lack the time to list everything"

Such a good turn of phrase.

I lack the time to list everything, but the very last thing was changing his avatar to a guy holding up two middle fingers, as part of a general profile update "screw you" before leaving the site.
