I am getting too cold

Has anyone ever observed how cold movie theaters are? I assumed that it was just me being cold blooded, however i am typically cold in air conditioned sites regardless of what I’m wearing so I tend to make sure to bring a sweater everywhere, and but movie theaters typically seem to be twice as cold as the other sites.

  • I first assumed that it had something to do with the fact that the theater itself is usually meant to hold a bunch of people, and that many people in one area can produce heat so naturally if they keep it cold than that shouldn’t be a problem.

I then thought maybe it was because the movies themselves when playing can get a bit hot. If the movie projector gets boiling enough it could possibly burn the movie thus ruining the movie and viewers and how they experience the movie. I also realized that the amount of air vents in each theater is about three times more than most sites. This lead me to feel that my first thought about making sure housing enough people and them being comfortable was right. I have a few points though, for instance, if the theater isn’t fully packed is it necessary to put the theater at such a cold temperature? Wouldn’t that possibly save the theater some money and maybe put them to better use? Like maybe chop down the price on tickets since they are very a bit pricey and don’t even get me started on the price of concessions. I feel though, I could just try and get there sooner so I can make sure to rest as far away from the vents as possible.
