Great. More expensive infrastructure investments to get passed onto the consumer through even higher ticket and concession prices at a time of record low disposable entertainment income resulting in theater gentrification. Just what the market needed

Okay, but the upgrade at my local theatre was so worth it. They sell burgers and booze. Waitresses deliver it to your seat. They have actual good recliners.

Makes for a phenomenal date night.

That sounds like a detriment to me.

You live in a world full of choice. This is just one of them.

Still have blurry dim projectors. And $35 burgers don't taste that good.

Still have blurry dim projectors

Every single cinemy in my area has Barco flagship laser projectors

The only time I ever experienced blurry projectors was at a $5 discount theatre, and that was 15 years ago.
