The web site is Cinema Treasures …….Not shitty multiplexs with 20 screens we are forced to go to because we have no other choice.Over screening did not happen by single screen theaters ..Schmadrian are you new to the bsns ???

THE BSNS MODEl IS CHANGING FOR THEATERES AS IT HAS OVER THE LAST 100 YEARS .Silent films to talk , news reels ,black and white to color ,scope,70 mm, stereo to thk ,popcorn and soda to full bars and reasturants..Theaters 2006 and on……….. DIgital pic ,back to showemanship, larger screens ….thats how i see it …..The fact theaters are closeing is a good thing the United States has been over screened since the 90s in almost every part of the country.I would call that a correction.

This is a great discussion. The sky is not falling. The united states is over screened and has been since the 90s.When product is bad bsns is bad good product bsns is good.if you have geat product and people stop coming then the sky is falling,ticket prices are at an all time high and are in no danger in changing.This summer is turning in a hugh boxoffice numbers thus far, if the sky was falling this would not be happening.When i say i dont get it i mean what are you doing wrong at your theater.You will have times sometimes ,years,when the bsns model needs to be changed ..ie jc pennys , sears, and theaters . I have a home theater with the seats ,screen and curtain but what that takes away is time from watching tv not going to the movies.I saw this reaction when video started .Theaters will be around long after we are all gone.
