Growing up, I lived about an hour from the nearest theater. I remember we used to use 10 minutes as the rule of thumb for the movie to actually start after the posted showtime...no commercials exactly, but 3 or 4 previews in those days.
If we were more than 10 minutes late, we'd just go to the mall or arcade or something instead.
