They also boot cell phone users/talkers/texters and basically anyone else who annoys the theater. Still doesn't beat watching a movie at home though. People suck.

Business is down because people can illegally download first-run movies, and watch them in the comfort of their own homes, on a flatscreen, without paying $15.00 for a soda and small popcorn. They can even download movies, legally, from various websites.

Movie Theaters just need to die, I rather pay a streaming platform and watch a movie from the comfort of my own home. I don't need an Imax screen. I have a damn nice size HD with a freakin Lazy Boy in front of it and no damn screaming children/talkers/texters. Oh, and my beer/food/drinks are better and cheaper.

I won't go anywhere else. Their matinees aren't expensive, beer and food are the same price you'd find at a restaurant.
