mark cuban posted a challenge on his blog: fix the movie industry.
it’s dying - people are waiting for DVD’s, movies are more expensive than people think they’re worth, and they perceive quality decrease. so how do we fix that?
personally, i think there’s a lot of value in a different model for theaters. right now we’re in the age of the multiplex. cater to everyone, offer as many movies as you can. i commented to mark that a themed, branded theater that catered to action flicks, or dramas or date movies might be more successful. team it with a bar and restaurant and make it a destination regardless of what’s playing. give me a fun place to hang out that also has 4 screens playing a variety of genre flicks and i’ll just go with my friends and if i want to see a movie, i will.
i’m the smartest cookie. now it’s just a race to see who will give me a movie theater first!!

Would love to add a blog to his site, yet I find no way to add a suggestion on his challenge. Maybe you could enlighten me as to how one goes about adding a comment on the blog site in question.
I used this link: http://www.blogmaverick.com/contact/comments/. I just put movie challenge or some such nonsense in as the subject and hoped they could figure it out. I’m not sure whether he’s got a team of trained monkeys that read and sort or what…
It’s also possible that commenting is closed since the post is so old. But I couldn’t figure out how comment directly on any of his posts which is what leads me to believe that link above is suitable.
To answer your question, I’ve got no idea. Shocking.
