Accessibility is only a tiny portion of it. Most of the US can’t walk to pretty much anything useful.
Lets start looking at ticket prices, and concession prices.
Family of 4 to watch a movie starts at $70 CAD at my local theatre. $10 for a single large popcorn to share, and $5ea per water. Fountain drinks are somehow more expensive than bottled water. That’s $100 for the start of an evening. Take a look at the rest of the economy, and figure out why theatres aren’t seeing the traffic they used to.
