If I were to spend money at a theater nowadays I would probably go see 
Terence Mallick's "Tree of Life" which is playing at the local art house 
barn on two screens.  If one of those is the dome it is worth 
attending.  Domes were early stadium model theaters and it is one of the 
remaining ones in the states.

I think people just go to a movie to be going to a movie and many may be 
saying "boy that sucked" afterward.  In the 1950's and 60's many went to 
see some funky sci-fi and horror films just to laugh at them but back 
then a ticket averaged around 70 cents.
