Yeah we were having a discussion in the car on the way home because our theater just had five people (including myself, my father and my wife.) Now, maybe it's because the majority of people were waiting for the sub showing at 10pm (then again that's still a small crowd seeing as tickets weren't even sold out.) but it really feels like the American viewing public is that one friend who keeps throwing you suggestions for things to watch. So you do, and you enjoy them. Then you try and offer him a suggestion in return and he's like "That's nice." and never watches it.
Edit: Also, of those five? One lady came in five minutes late. Another guy came in who knows how long into the movie and then left twenty minutes before the ending.
