Ok, cool. At least i know what kind of person you are. Glad we dont need to continue this.

Also someone else must be following this thread and has been downvoting you. Because i havent been.

Are you ok? How did you get to raising a child in a dystopia from you rolling around on the floor of a car and surviving a wreck without wearing a seatbelt?

Please take a step back from this and look at yourself. You have lost the thread.

You dont wven know how to solve your attitude. I dont have much faith you can solve anything else.

But you are entitled to be wrong, so i wont stop you.

I guess. Skeleton crew, someone to see you in, someone to serve you drinks and snacks and someone to work the projector. bring a data pen with your videos on it and give to them to plug in and play.

Or log into your streaming servitheand hook your device up to the projector.

It would need all kinda of restrictions and protections for the cinemas but its not like that couldn’t be worked out in a room somewhere. Private parties would be great.

If it became lucrative then pay more staff and capitalise on it.

So they need another revenue stream. If i am forced to pay high tickey proces and high snack prices, im going to wait for the film to come out on a streaming platform and watch it then.

Lots of people do the same. Its the reason most films ive been tonsee recently are in empty cinemas where i basivally get a private screening.

The industry at large is failing and has been for a while.

Given that it wasn’t angry or controlling, it wasn’t actually a particularly uptight thing to say. No.

You presented your personal experience as evidence of fact and used that to act condescendingly towards people who care about the safety of their children.

Just think about that for a minute.

I once lit a cigarette, but it didnt stay lit. So i guess that means that everyone who lights a cigarette has to light it twice…

Except that it doesnt and my experience put me in a minority that day.

Thats why we dont use anecdotes as evidence of facts.

People are right to be concerned about safety when the evidence shows that not being concerned causes more deaths despite there being some lucky idiots out there.

In rhe UK (at least the part i live in), they dont stop you from bringing your own food in. I think that staff know that no one wants to pay the crazy prices for the food they sell. If i could buy the snacks they sell for the prices that the shops across the road are selling them, then i wouldn’t need to go to the shops across the road. Maybe thats not possible for them, maybe they need to find a new revenue stream.
