We have a huge number of people who are retired and loved going to the movies.

But the Villages' developers can do anything they want within the law.
The truth is we DONT have enough Villagers going to the movies daily to support another movie theater. Or employees. Sumter took half the that theater and turned it into a restaurant! Movies aren’t what they used to be! I can see half the new movies from the comfort of my home! I went to a movie last week with my grandson- new release- and we were 2 of 5 people in the entire theater!
