Folks just aren't going to movie houses anymore, except maybe younger couples and teeny daters...and lonely singles.
Why go to a theater when you can stay home of an evening, surrounded by music systems, the TV, your computer, video games and your other toys, rentals of great movies....plus popcorn and all kinds of luscious snacks, sodas, beer, wine, women and song, plus SAFETY...all within the confines of your cozy nest.
Does anyone here know ANYONE who goes to the local Bijou regularly on dark, cold winter nights? I don't.
I, myself, have not been to a theater for two decades starting when the studios and actors started to be so openly leftist. Yet, I'm a huge movie buff. I love the oldie, goodies on the classic movie channels, and eagerly watch the great stars and films from the Golden Age of Movies whenever I want a great, relaxing evening in the comfort of my own home.

There’s no place like home, lol.
I go to movies so that I can see epics on the big screen. Most people don’t have a screen the size of a movie theatre in their homes. We usually go once or twice a year. We just saw Rogue One and might see Passengers this week. Both are epics meant for the big screen.
I hate theaters too, but stadium seating is really brilliant.
