The kind that doesn't give a fuck about wealthy hollywood actors and companies?... And thinks that groups of people supporting local theatre might be better for them, in that it's a community and group event that involves seeing real people that you know in a community setting?

What about all the working class folks who work in film? Not everyone on that movie set or working in that theater are ultra wealthy and in fact most are not.

You don't just not give a fuck about the elites of Hollywood. You seem to not be thinking of the working class folks there either.

This is the same argument of trickle down economics. These people will find work elsewhere.

Oh yeah, I just heard how great the job market is. Only 32,000 jobs lost last month.

Do you also know how expensive that is for the average person RN? Do you know how much would it cost to hire a reliable babysitter for someone with kids? Or tickets for a whole family? Plus transportation or gas money? What if you live in a place with shit theater? Or maybe no theater at all? What if the closest theater is two hours away and it's shit? What if your country is so religious and closed off that theater is barely even allowed?

What if you barely have time for a movie, let alone for the trip back and forth to a theater because you're overworked to death and tired all the time?

What if you're disabled and mobility is an issue?

Do you live on Earth with the rest of us? Or in your idealistic theory where your version of reality is the only one?
