How much money do the developers need? The right thing to do is to keep at least two movie theaters open for those generations who grew up going to the movies.
Why does this keep going back to whether the movie theaters are making money? It is not even relevant to the discussion.
From the petition--
Quote:
By reopening Barnstorm Theater as an additional venue for public shows in Brownwood, we can ensure that all residents have equal opportunities for artistic engagement and enjoyment. This will not only enhance our quality of life but also contribute positively towards building a stronger sense of community identity.
We urge decision-makers at both local government levels and theater management teams alike to consider this petition seriously. By reopening Barnstorm Theater promptly while adhering strictly to health guidelines recommended by reputable sources such as CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), we can strike a balance between public safety and the need for accessible cultural experiences.
