For the THIRD week in a row, I thought, wow, it is going to be HOT again and maybe raining and wouldn't it be great perhaps to go out to a mall and perhaps shop a bit and see a Movie ...
OK... so there are only 8 (EIGHT)Movies which show in the ENTIRE country,,,,, SAME MOVIES in all the
86 EIGHT-SIX MOVIE theaters....
in the Capital city of
3 three million people.
AND
They HAVE NOT CHANGED IN THREE WEEKS! ( I swear this is true, I am sure this is true or maybe it is just that it has just been so hot, so very very hot that it seems that a week is a month)
Now the EARLIEST shows START at 4 PM
THIS is NEW -- only in the LAST few years.
It is only One SHOW that Starts THIS EARLY'
Always a kid's show.
No
seems like they are all kids shows
The other shows don't start til 7. All the stores in the mall are closed.
Marketing, marketing marketing,
I speak vainly to my Dominican Friends,
I know that you are all cousins, or you all know someone who knows someone who is cousins with the guy who probably owns ALL the theaters so could you get him this message? PLEASE?????!?!@?!?
It is a hot country. Movie theaters are cold and dark.
Movies in the US were the one thing that made money even through the Great Depression.
Run the movies all day.
In the HEAT of the DAY
Start with the 2 PM early show at a discount.
This will bring more people to the Mall when the stores are open.
See the marketing aspect here?
You say that people have no money?
Well the people who have no money won't spend it.
Let's talk about the people who do have money... because, let's face it , there are plenty of people who do have money here.....
I, for one, would have gone to at least 4 movies in the last month. OK, not a fortune. But at least once, I would have treated a family I know, so that is 7 ticket at say 200 pesos plus popcorn -- it is mounting up here, see?
DON't FREEZE US with the AC. We don't need to have to carry sweaters for the movies, just a place to get out of the sun. Put the AC at 75, even 80 we will think it is heaven.
Run a different movie in every room. That is 86 movies in Santo Domingo, Then you can bring in 8 new ones every week. Have a real variey, One for MOM one for DAD etc etc... there are millions and millions of movies out there. You don't have to do Hollywood,,, try Bollywood, or Argentina, and Mexico;, say... surely they are cheaper... we just want the big screen, the dark, the AC!!
I used to work in a specialty video store, I would even VOLUNTEER to help him chose some. Just PM me.
thanks for listening
i feel better
not any cooler but a lot less angry
gee it certainly helps to share
