Sony Pictures Buys Alamo Drafthouse - eviltoast
Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas has sold to Sony Pictures Entertainment but will continue to operate its theaters under the brand name

I really hope this is a good thing. I don’t want to see theaters die, but I really hope Sony doesn’t interfere with the things that make Alamo Drafthouse great… I really hope they can rectify the closure of all the DFW locations as well.

    Yeah surprised this is allowed.

    I think it should be allowed actually—but the fact that it is settled case law is surprising. Maybe because they are Japanese?

      It wasn’t allowed until 2020.

      I don’t think it should be allowed. Look at what happened to TV when the studios started owning all the TV channels and streaming outlets.
