This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Checking to see what movies were playing tonight. Didn't even know this movie existed. Decided to check and see how packed it was in my rural Eastern NC town. This is for the showing starting in 30min (lemmy.world)

And even further, only those exact same two seats are ‘taken’ for every single showing.

I thought for sure the after church showings tomorrow would be at least somewhat full, but nope.

This theater seating arangement pisses me off. Why did they remove 2 seats on all the rows behind the handicap seat row? And why are there 2 seats even further to the right, but X'd off in the back row??? If anything that just shows theres enough space for 4 more seats in EVERY row behind the handicaped row! Is that just empty floor space??? Why is that there??? Like a mini dance floor in the theater???

Truly you have done as your handle says

If it's like the theater near me the space is for the entrance and stairs. You would come in at the level with the handicapped seating and go down stairs to the rows in front of that and up stairs for the rows behind.

I can't even find showings in my state.

I got curious. This showing is in about 90 minutes, in one of the reddest counties in the country.

There is another show tonight that has about 10 tickets sold.

If this is in one of the reddest counties, then that means NONE of this means anything, other than this movie did a terrible job advertising. Even to their base. Nobody knows the movie exists.

This looks like Megaplex. You also in Utah, my friend?

One of the reddest places in a major Texas metropolis, on a Saturday evening, an hour before the showing:
