I think it cuts down the potential audience quite a bit. I already am not very interested in going to a bar, and watching a movie in one sounds even less fun.

I think it cuts down the potential audience quite a bit. I already am not very interested in going to a bar, and watching a movie in one sounds even less fun. Most of the people I know who refuse to go to the movies cite cleanliness, noisyness, rude people, etc. as the reasons. In my mind, going to a movie at a bar ramps up all the negative aspects of the experience. I'm expecting that many people will disagree with me on this, but I thought my view was worth putting out there.
