A lot of posts below are irritated with your assertion. I am not. I see your point(s), and support you. Getting butts in seats in the cold, dark months on weeknights remains a challenge. Putting working people home at 12 -12:30 -- you are spot on. It's only anecdotal evidence, but I've heard as much. Anyone who doubts it, visit the TKTS line multiple times in a week, and notice the difference in sales.

Delvino, those people do not come to the theatre during the week in any meaningful number. The notion that they do is a post hoc fallacy. There is plenty of data on this.
