Saying that the Villages is "banning" this, or any movie because they choose to show other movies is like saying that they are "banning" Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream because they don't have a store here or that Publix is 'banning" Bird Eye because they choose to carry other lines.

If it's not showing here, find out where it's showing and go there. If the Villages Theaters don't show it, they won't get your business.

I'm sure that this is simply a business decision. There are a number of movies that they have to choose from. They are either tied to a contract which requires them to show some movies or the distributor doesn't carry this particular or they are choosing to show other movies because they think that they will attract a larger audience.
