When I lived near a cinema like that, I was happy to buy its snacks and even the occasional beer. The snacks were good, and only slightly marked up. They had great taste in film, and tickets were cheap.
It was a good business model, and I supported it. Nowadays it seems they've moved on to higher ticket prices and more "hot" movies. I wish them luck, but I would not likely continue to support them if I was still in their area.
It's a bad business model. The way it's supposed to work is that bad business models die. If that's not how it works anymore, all I can say is that projectors are affordable and you can make really good popcorn with ghee and powdered salt. A little turmeric gives it that yellow color. Enjoy.
