In a boat at sea one of the men began to bore a hole in the bottom of the boat. On being remonstrating with, he answered, "I am only boring under my own seat." "Yes," said his companions, "but when the sea rushes in we shall all be drowned with you."

A traditional movie theater in Springfield is about as likely as snow in Springfield, in May. An independent/foreign theater might have a shot, but I'll believe it when I see it.

movie theater is great. I imagine most people would go with the artistic, independent movie type. Dare I propose an 360 degree immersion IMAX? It will really bring in the crowd. When I use to live in Boston, some big furniture store (I forgot its name) has an IMAX in it. I do not remember how many over priced furniture I  brought because I was "just walking around" before and after the movies.
IMAX might not sound as cool to the elder generation but it is definitely THE THING for the young. While we are at it, let's get some vending machines that sells iphone accessories.  ;)

I'm not getting my hopes for anything. Maybe except another fast food joint or gas station makeover.

Movie schmovie...when was the last time that anything less than a giant megaplex was built anywhere?  I love the old art houses but San Marco and Five Points have that niche filled for now.

A projector and a old sheet in Klutho Park would do me just fine.  Meanwhile, one house/one small business at a time.
