NYC used to have many retro theaters with GREAT films that could turn on new generations. Theaters that insist on projecting the mindless CRAP that have NO plot, NO engaging characters and NO acting ability, that rely on animated and computer-generated effects, as they raise ticket prices to historically psychotic ever higher levels, DESERVE to fail. Now films are made for five year olds as part of OPERATION DUMB DOWN that appeals to the Lowest Common Denominator. Those adult films talked UP to us, not DOWN to us. Even "films for children" had adult references. When I was a kid, films were made for adults. One could be a musical, another a comedy, a silent film with piano accompaniment, a film noir, a foreign film, a western, a mystery, and so on. The point here is that a SMART multiplex theater would use each mini-theater they have to show a different type of film from the past. Same with the Sunshine Theater - their midnight movies (remember those?) showed great older films and they were PACKED as well. #4D THEATER UNION SQUARE DRIVER#
On the other hand, the theater at 12th and Second Ave did two showings of TAXI DRIVER (1976) on a Wednesday night (7:30pm + 9:00pm) and the place was PACKED!!!!! And the audience was mostly younger people not born until 10+ years after that film was made. I always asked HOW they could be making ANY money showing CRAPPY films? Whenever I checked out their mini theaters inside, I'd see 2-5 people AT MOST. Instead, all they have showed is current CRAP. All they have to do is TRY showing GOOD FILMS.
