Old school 'rule of thumb':

If the town can support a Wal-Mart, it can support a six-screen theatre.

"I have contacted NATO and they won't work with me becuase I do not "own" a theatre yet. Is there someone at NATO to contact or someone else to get those formulas from? I am writing a business plan currently."

I was told about their services by other theatre owners over the years. Perhaps you have a friend that owns a theatre someplace and can help you. The other possibility of obtaining this info is through a film booker.

Mark,

I don't know anyone else personally that is involved with NATO. That is why I asked here.
