One of my most delightful discoveries was a YouTube video where someone compiled all the intermission and drive-thru ads and jingles. It was HOURS long.

My old YouTube password got stolen and my account deleted so I ended up losing the video. I tried to find it again but the one that I found with over a million views has stupid zoom in effects that cut off most of what's being shown and kinda ruins the whole point.

I love those old drive in intermission ads - I actually have a DVD full of them, I sometimes put in on between watching movies. Just to kind of get that old-tyme drive-in movie experience. It sucks that your password got stolen, but Youtube still has plenty of those intermission ads and jingles. I'm glad there are people in the world who enjoy reliving those mid-century experiences!

If you use Plex or Jellyfin as a home media server, it allows movie preview trailers and other preroll media IIRC. You could completely recreate the theater experience. Throw in some old retro Disney or other shorts before a flick.
