I read the text but still don't get how they measured that people who say they love cinema didn't go.

It's about a feeling, not facts.

I’m a cinema lover. I also have tinnitus. That’s why I don’t go to the theater. Go spend extra money on IMAX – the screen and the colors are carefully calibrated. The sound WAS until someone making $12 an hour dicked around with it because somebody couldn’t hear the dialogue and now I get blown out of the movie theater.

I digress.

I can't see going to a theater for a movie ever again.

Live performance, sure, but I'll watch movies at home.

Make movies I'm excited about seeing and have them in the theater for more than 12 seconds so I can actually schedule the trip and I'll go. The theaters around me only post their times like 3-4 days in advance and by the time I see it the seating left is shit. I can't plan around that. Also the last few movies I have gone to I've had people sitting around me that would not shut the fuck up. No one wants to listen to your stupid comments motherfuckers.
