I honestly really like the VIP theatres near me, I hope they don't go away. Are they overcharging for the food? Of course they are. But as a once-a-month or less kind of situation, I really like going to dinner with my wife, get a few drinks, watch a movie - and I don't have to lift a finger to make the food. I am the cook at home, you bet your ass I appreciate opportunities to take a night off.
To me I see it like Blockbuster - I'm really gonna miss just the experience of going to the theatre itself if it does go away. Remember the smell of Blockbuster? I do.
