Commercials on YouTube are painful. Many times they pop up every two minutes or less on a longer video.

It still is on ABC. Usually the Saturday a week before Easter. Saw it this year and almost every year.

I wish YouTube still had predictable ad lengths. I hate how if I’m not paying attention, it’ll go into a 30 minute ad that I have to open my phone to press a button to skip.


You poor man. it is a testament to your resilience that you can go on living given these hardships thrust upon you.

OP thinks it's political because YouTube asked him to sign in to watch a movie. It's not what he thinks.

Not sure how this is political.


Big Digital Media vs the working poor!!! Forcing them to watch advertisements rather than allowing them to consume someone else's intellectual property for free!

Did I do it right?

Because the movie is associated with The Passover, which Jesus was celebrating on the night of the Last Supper.

I know you know this, but just in case others have never made the connection between the movie and Easter.

My only question is who the hell doesn't use ad blockers?

Hell I even side load an ad free YouTube music app on my android auto why would you pay for YouTube anything?

It’s worth ten bucks to me if It keeps me from watching 1 ad while I’m in the middle of watching a YT video of how to change my timing belt on my truck.


I used to pay for several different streaming services, but after awhile I realized that I just don't frickin use them. I'm getting to where none of the shite produced in Hollywood or anywhere else holds my interest anymore. I used to love watching the James Bond movies, for instance, and the other day I saw No Time to Die was on. I thought, "hell yeah, I'll watch this." ... Lasted about 5 minutes before I shut it off. Not because the movie isn't good, but because it just doesn't hold my interest anymore.

Youtube ads don't bother me much. You can skip through them after 15 seconds or so.

I see some that say it's a playlist with 15 videos and some that say Knowledge & Facts.

How do you know which one is actually a movie?

Some you have to sign in to Google to "confirm your age"




Logged in to watch the old classic The Ten Commandments - it forced me to sign in to confirm my age


I've watched a few movies over the past month or two and so far Youtube hasn't forced me to sign in yet. They're probably collecting all the personal info they need through my Samsung TV.
