Line 6: ''Technicolor Refreshment Trailer No. 1'' -- better known as '''''Let's All Go to the Lobby''''' -- is probably the best known "[[Intermission\|snipe]]" or theatrical movie trailer ever produced. Animated refreshments including a pack of chewing gum, a box of popcorn, a soft drink cup, and a box of candy sing and dance across the screen, imploring audiences to get themselves some treats. The Chicago-based Filmack Trailer Co. produced the forty-second Technicolor animated snipe, one that a theater could buy for the measly price of $10.75. Official records at the still-existing company can’t determine a specific date, but advertisements were taken out for the cartoon as early as 1951. Filmack proudly touted that [[Max and Dave Fleischer\|Dave Fleischer]], of former ''[[Betty Boop]]'' and ''[[Popeye (cartoon)\|Popeye]]'' fame, animated the snipe. (Though, obviously, he had hired some ~~nameless~~anonymous freelancers to do the actual drawing.) ''Let's All Go to the Lobby'' was added to the [[National Film Registry]] in 2000.
