#1 Personally don't care for such movies and they seem to continue to up the level of violence and language each year, but #2 also think if there was no market for this type of thing, including in the villages, it would not be financially astute to do so, and #3, I "thought" there were "strict regulations" concerning what previews can contain since the audience may contain young children ?
Not that I agree with this at all, but seems when we attend a family movie we have no choice but to remove ourselves ! Stay in the lobby, or go buy snacks until the preview is over ! Certainly not the way it should be, but if we are in any social situation with really offensive behaviors and /or language, we'd just walk away !
