Another Supply, Demand and Profit Question
If you owned the local theatres--and we all know who owns them--would you agree to such a rule? As a business, the idea is to sell as many seats as possible, to whomever has the money to buy the tickets. For every seat that was "saved" for residents and then wasn't sold to a non-resident, that's lost revenue to the theatre owner.
I suppose if the residents would agree to fund the losses associated with such a policy as an addition to their amenity fee, as owner I might consider such a rule change. But there's no chance of that happening either.
For the hot flicks "in season" it looks like an early arrival is the only answer.
