Comments on Open Mic for the Week of 4/7/2025 by Marchmaine in reply to Jaybird

That's definitely more like drummer-wife shit.

"he says he would come more often if he could buy and smoke pot at the theater. “How fun would that be?” he says. “They have a bar here so that people can relax and enjoy a drink.""

You'd quite literally have to have a different building... pot invading public spaces is already creating a backlash... you'd nuke non-pot screenings anywhere and any time in your theater. Plus, there's a pretty big lack of awareness comparing (or not comparing) the externalities of Pot vs. Alcohol.

It's a content saturation problem... there are too many alternatives to films. And films as a medium don't offer that much of an upgrade over 4k viewing.

If there's a 'new thing' it will be something along the lines of immersive theaters like you get in a 90second ride at Disney Hollywood.
