Things change, not sure what to tell you.

I think getting rid of screens was premature... half the traveling public (the older half, who account for 2/3 of the revenue) don't like watching movies on phones. I'm even in that camp, the bigger the better as far as screens go. If it's a movie I'm particularly interested in I'll make a point of going to the theater.
