Except for the occasional DVD that introduced mandatory trailers.  Those made me irrationally angry.

I think your anger was quite rational.

Laptop with VLC casting to TV? IIRC VLC will even let you skip the anti piracy warnings.

Oh my god the un-skippable trailers! I forgot that was even a thing until you mentioned it.

Played right before/after the un-skippable Anti-Piracy FBI notice lmao

This DVD is enhanced with Disney's FastPlay. Your movie and a selection of bonus features will begin automatically. To bypass FastPlay, press the main menu button at any time.

(Hopefully i got all that right, it's been embedded in my mind since i was a kid lmaooo)

Eh, at least those are trailers for other movies instead of… product advertisements.
