I kind of agree with you - as when I went to the movies the most, it was actually to see weirdo old films at midnight movie events. I don't live in a city that's large enough to have a theater that can survive on that anymore (for a pop 125k city, we have one mainstream theater and no indies) Partly because real estate is through the roof and putting a movie theater in just again: doesn't work on paper. One of the challenges of showing these films is actually just to find a good-enough print to do so! So perhaps one of the hurtles for doing this now is getting that digital transfer to the new all-digital systems. Midnight movies are also going to/have died since working at a movie theater is already a shit job, and you're now asking people to work a shit job at a really really crappy schedule. But I still don't know if it's worth putting out like Ghostbusters on a regular schedule, but it sure was fun to watch it 20+ years after I first saw it at a midnight movie. When (past tense now) Netflix had mail service, they had a good Criterium Collection, which fills the gap for me. I guess $11/month for YA streaming service is an option.
