Pretty sure they don't sell booze or weed at theaters because imagine what happens when the newest Tyler Perry movie gets released.

I tend to remember that the mid-2000s were kind of flat for movies with a lot of sequels and other stuff coming out, and one of the "culprits" being watching TV at home, with DVD players (and future tech) and wide flatscreen televisions were making home theaters more affordable and the technology to having close-to-cinema tech possible, something absolutely unaffordable ten years prior (with VHS tapes still in fullscreen and big televisions/projectors extremely expensive). [The other culprit was sporting events, before they became a woke mess that started to turn people off].
Ya but weed butter popcorn is something you wouldn't have any other occasion, kinda like popcorn. The genius was me, I'm the genius. Of course you'd also have the thing where you buy a paper cup and can fill it with weed gummies and weed milk buds from big tubes with a trowel.
Alcohol is okay but what they need is a way to fill seats. Outside of big opening weekends if you go to a cinema in the middle of the day it's not uncommon to be the only person in the theatre. Bringing back the idea of it being somewhere you could spend a whole day is one thing that could help, but however they accomplish that, it'd get real fucking messy if everyone's tanked.
Honestly, I know the perfect way to do this and the hardest part will be the fact the copyrights to so many titles belong to a small handful of turbo-woke megacorporations.
Bring back the grindhouses and the dollar theaters. The age of the chain multiplex was winding down to an end even before Corona.
A one or two-screen theater that shows multiple movies a day and has special weekday matinee events or "all night" billings on Fridays and Saturdays will make a lot of money, especially if you have good food at decent prices and focus more on older pre-Woke titles and niche genres with a built-in audience like horror movies or science fiction.
Drive-ins have already begun to make a comeback, ironically thanks to Corona.

FYI: food items cannot be patented in the US. Copyright and food items is difficult too.
When I was talking about copyright, I was referring to the movies.
Granted, there is a sizeable number of older public domain titles as well...
Yeah, that kinda stuff is what I meant by them being too retarded to remember what used to work. They have a lot to draw from right back to the depression era, and there's more you can do with a room with a big screen and a bunch of chairs now than ever which they've never taken advantage of. No reason a multiplex couldn't turn an idle theatre over to a Smash Bros tourney or media students or whatever (since they're then private showings) and make a lot more than they currently do with a throughput of like six people.

If you are not converting your dollars into Bitcoin, Ethereum or Gold as fast as you can no power on earth can help you.
The last week has been the exact same pattern. Up in late premarket, then early short attacks push it down, then it goes right back to where it started. Tiny volume overall. Gamestop's speaking tomorrow so everyone's waiting for that. I want entertainment.

Whisperings
Microsoft Corp. is in talks to acquire Discord Inc., a video-game chat community, for more than $10 billion, according to people familiar with the matter.
Discord has been talking to potential buyers, and software giant Microsoft is in the running, but no deal is imminent, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the discussions are private. Discord is more likely to go public than sell itself, one person said. Representatives for Microsoft and Discord declined to comment.
San Francisco-based Discord is best known for its free service that lets gamers communicate by video, voice and text, and people stuck at home during the pandemic have increasingly used its technology for study groups, dance classes, book clubs and other virtual gatherings. Microsoft, which last year sought to buy social-media app TikTok and held talks to acquire Pinterest Inc., has been shopping for assets that would provide access to thriving communities of users, according to people familiar with the company’s thinking.
Discord reached out to Microsoft to gauge interest, and Microsoft Xbox chief Phil Spencer has been talking to the company, according to one person. VentureBeat reported earlier on Monday that Discord was in talks to sell itself. The company raised $100 million at a $7 billion valuation last year, according to Pitchbook.
Discord has also held discussions with Epic Games Inc. and Amazon.com Inc. in the past, according to two people familiar with the matter. Epic and Amazon didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment.

Ordinarily I'd say this would be a bad sign but Discord is such ass I can't see how even Microsoft could make it worse than the tranny furry pedos who currently run it.
Maybe they'll run it into the ground like they did Skype
Rebrand it into Skype.Maybe they'll run it into the ground like they did Skype
Hah. It would be create if they automatically merged people's Discord logins (which are only used for sharing hentai) into any Skype accounts with shared email addresses (which some failing businesses actually use).
