that's cool. jealous. i used to have theatres like that around me but none of them do that anymore. post covid they just play boring repetitive stuff and third/fourth run hollywood movies, and do these of identity themed festivals for weeks at a time that are full of bottle barrel amateur movies. occasionally they might get a 70mm cut or something, but that's once every few months. these are places i used to hold memberships to and go a monthly or more basis... now it's been years since I've been.

Play good movies and I will come to your cinema. But they just... don't. i just looked at one place i used to go and nothing in the next two months looks interesting to me unless i want to see a bunch of 90s crappy movies and/or reruns of big hit movies from '24. it's no wonder they are struggling so much... garbage programming.
