There is a new business model in the movie industry, rendering most movie theaters obsolete. New content is being produced by companies that are going the streaming route to distribute their product. This was going to happen anyways, but Covid accelerated the transformation. It would not be fiscally prudent to throw good money at renovating a dinosaur.
