This is kinda generic, but it will guage a little based on the readership here. Other factors involved would be where you live, where you go to the theater, what kind of movies you see, etc.... Too many questions to cover in one poll.
Downtown wouldn't sustain a movie theater. I live downtown and love it here, but there's no population base to support it. San Marco Theater and the one in 5 points service the area currently. Maybe after Laura Trio and maybe a second berkman building or another major residential development it would make sense
We have far bigger needs downtown than a movie theater. If I want to see a movie in the core, I hit up 5 Points or San Marco.
That would be my vote in the poll, if the selection was available.
To me, it's a non-issue. As was mentioned in the other post that started it all, "It would have been built by now." I am just gathering some frequencey numbers, because even if it were there, I tend to agree with a comment from a movie theater owner who believes that the movie industry (at least the theater industry) is in a state of worry due to several factors.
I don't go to the movies. I'd rather wait and watch them at home. I just wanted to get a gauge some others.
