Movie Theaters Have to be so Greedy - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

"Do you Believe" An inspirational movie I wanted to see soo badly that I took a day off of work to go see it, and the Movie Theater where I live had it billed for 4 showings throughout the day. When I went, they said the part part of the theater that it was showing in had problems and needed repairs so they couldn't show it. This went on, same issue, for 5 days without repairs. Then they removed it from the theater without ever showing it. The room it was supposed to show in, was apparently fixed because I saw another movie in that room today. When I complained to the manager, I was finally given the truth. They said, the movie didn't look like it was going to do well, so they removed it and replaced it with another one. It was "The Age of Adeline" Still a good movie.

Do you Believe was the only inspirational movie paying there and they didn't even want to show it. I am just wondering if this is going to happen to most Inspirational movies that have a religious nature? Or is it just the greed of the movie theaters?

I have to agree with the Dutchman. If I want to see it, I want to see it now and not wait for it to be on DVD.
