Well what can be done about this? All it indicates is a sign that there is a built-in audience. Sorry the film doesn't deliver but then few films today do, and when there are great small films out there that nobody sees, lodged silently in art-house cinemas on one-week runs, and everybody runs to this dreck, it makes me....depressed.

You nailed it dead on.
Also, the opening weekend doesn't say much anymore. Let's see if it falls off a cliff by next weekend. Word of mouth means a lot at $9+ a ticket.

Here in Canada the only theatre that offers tickets for less than $12.50 for new showings - are the matinees - and they're only available on weekends - at least here in Toronto. The canadian dollar is only worth 10% less than the american $ now! - so your costs of $9 sounds cheap compared to mine.
Ps - for BBM, I managed to see it about 10 times @ matinee prices most of the time.
