Village Roadshow sparked quite a bit of interest with its announcement of $35 a ticket luxury cinemas featuring restaurant and bar service. USA Today weighed in almost simultaneously with a story on alcohol service in movie theaters. The story leans heavily on the possibility of underage moviegoers being served alcohol.
