With ticket sales eroding, some theater chains are wary of offering deep discounts like utilizing Groupon and the recent MoviePass program. Do you think they make their money back off of these customers in the long run?

Theatres today are in a lot of trouble.Folks my age for the most part remember movie going as an event,today,much like a trip to the BUS Stop in Augusta.The younger folks that 14 to 24 bracket that was hot even in my theatre days does not have the kind of money they want at the Box Office,along with lousy films,who really cares,When I got out in 1983 I saw the writing on the Wall.
