Multiplexes are advancement of TECHNOLOGY, no doubt .... but will it affect the normal cinema trend ...
I feel that mulplx are really changing the way cinema is looked at .... earlier days, cinema was a costly affair and then in the mid days .... cinema became more cheaper coz of more movies and more theaters .... now digital stuffs have increased the factor of movies again !
so will mlpx have an impact on the existing theaters ?
yes BG ur right... but still theatres like vetri, albert, udayam, kasi will be there .... so the people can choose were to see the movies.. i wont go to a multiplex for a FDFS.....Quote:

only venture capitalists who are new could afford ... existing theater owners ... not everybody can afford !
it will have little impact on theatres like udayam, kasi etc... b'cos their audience cant afford the ticket rates in multiplexes.... but also movies like anbesivam will do well in multiplexes and since the ticket rate is very high, it will make more money... so, the balance will be there...Quote:

:-) FDFS can be only for those previleged 170 ppl .... appuram enna .... ? my concern is about existing theater owners ... who may not afford to spend more on mulpxQuote:
