Wonder if the studios said they can't have them anymore. Would be cool if a theater brought them back. Probably have tons of people just leave when the movie is bad.

I have to assume it's studios -- movie theaters make most of their money selling concessions, and intermissions are great for that.

Not sure why the studio would care if people left after intermission, they've already paid full price.

All those intermissions would add up. They wouldn't be able to show as many movies per day...
