We've been having a problem in movie theatres in Ontario when we show
certain movies from India. The problem happened again recently in my
home town of Kitchener:

https://kitchener.ctvnews.ca/attacks-happen-like-clockwork-film-distributors-upset-with-continued-screen-slashing-1.6065558

Apparently, certain individuals are literally destroying the screens in
the theatres - and releasing unnamed "noxious substances" - in empty
theatres before showtime.

I've never priced a movie screen but, given the size, I'm betting
they're not cheap. I can't figure out why the theatres haven't improved
their security to prevent these incidents, unless perhaps they're
worried that any security personnel might get attacked if they get in
the way of these vandals. (I would never overestimate the ruthlessness
that some people can show. It's apparently quite common for some people
from India to throw permanently disfiguring acids on people who have
crossed them. This practice has found its way to the UK already where a
variety of people - mostly women as I understand it - have been
disfigured in this way. We're already seeing violence in this country
between various groups from India. That violence goes all the way back
to an Air India flight that was blown up in mid-air back in the 1980s by
militant Sikhs.)

I'm telling you, a few of this shitbags get kneecapped by security guards with
baseball bats and this nonsense would stop real quick.

But that would be RACIST so that would never happen. Besides, you'd be
depriving these promising youth of their opportunity to express themselves.

(I'm half serious with that last sentence. I remember once being part of
a discussion where someone expressed frustration with having their
property vandalized by graffiti; one woman countered with the "argument"
that they were just expressing themselves and telling the world that
they were there or words to that effect. I just gaped at her in
astonishment but I wanted to say "Then let them express themselves on
their OWN damned property, not things that were public property or
someone else's!)

Mr. google says $10,000 and up to $100,000 for IMAX.

Yikes, that's not cheap! I don't imagine you can just go to a local
store to get another one or install it yourself so I'm betting that
particular cinema is going to be offline for days or weeks while
ordering in a new screen and getting it installed.

I don’t know about these new screens for digital projection but in the good
old film days screens were very complex. Sometimes they’re filled with a
myriad of tiny holes so you can put speakers behind them and the sound
passes to the audience. Curved Cinerama screens could be made out of a
series of flat strips facing the audience. Since these things aren’t just
stuck to a wall they have to be stretched tight.

Is that the case where the ringleader was acquitted based on perjured
evidence and the prosecutor was unable to retry? Where the ringleader
was murdered about an hours drive east of Vancouver about 3 months
ago? Air India 182 if I recall correctly - it was the largest air
piracy death toll before 9/11

That's the one. As I understand it, the bombing was reckoned as payback
for Indira Gandhi's assault on the Golden Temple of Amritsar. Mind you,
I don't know if that was ever proven in a court of law but it seemed to
be the general consensus of the RCMP and crown prosecutors.

Holy fuck, the "complexity" of a perforated screen sounds enormous!
Sending a guy to the moon must be easy by comparison!
