I have a general question about movie theatres.
Tonight I went to the movies 9:40pm movie couple big stars, movie isn't important, about 5 people were in the movie theatre. This is the other movie theatre in the city, not a super huge city, but younger popular city 55,000 people. This was the movies that were 5 weeks old+ that were 1/2 price.
But why only 5 people? I see that all the time in movie theatres these days. I am 30 years old now, when I was 16 or 17, a movie theatre on Saturday night at 9:40pm would easily be 1/2 full on a bad night, 50-60 people at least, what happened?
My theory is that there are so many more choices of things to do for entertainment.
Xbox, Wii, playstation, internet, tv, cable, satellite, DVD, blockbuster, redboxdvd, and many more, it's almost like it's so diversified.
What are others thoughts? Have they noticed attendance at movie theatres over the last few years way down?
