just weird that they implemented a blanket ban instead of requiring the kids to be with adults, to me. I’m sure there are well mannered kids who would like to enjoy a post-sundown date there or something during the summer. or even parents who want to go out for a movie with their kid, at that time; considering there are working parents that get off at 6:30-7ish. I’m approaching semantic territory, but I definitely see this affecting sales to an extent—could be wrong!

They bring the kids in then dump them off. Monitoring chaperons? Seeing if they’re with an adult? That’s a lot of work and monitoring. Blanket ban easier

You can make sure a chaperoning adult is present when the ticket is torn. You don't have to monitor hallways. Just "Did an adult go into the theater with the minor".

But I mean there are plenty of other theaters teens can go to. If parents want to dump kids at a Regal theater, they are welcome to.
