With 3-4 new releases every week and 8-10 Oscar contenders to play, I haven't got a clue what to expect from week to week, let alone what trailers to program and one-sheets to display. It would be great if we had 10 screens, but with 5 screens we won't even be able to go back and catch up on the movies we missed.

Hell, I'd like to have two screens....but there are times I can't imagine trying to fill five, let alone 20 or more.

Be happy with what ya got - for sometimes when product release gets a little thin or a couple of product titles gets a little blah, a 20plex really suffers when all of those houses showing that one blah movie lays empty.

Eactly why they should always have a print of Jaws or Raiders or something like that on hand!

Exactly, but nowhere (at least in the UK) does this.
