I was going to attend the last movie in Studio Ghibli Fest today, Castle in the Sky,
but it's been mysteriously canceled without warning at my local movie
theater, so I guess that's the end of my Studio Ghibli Fest 2018
adventure.
That makes the second cancellation in this Fathom Events
series, which isn't a good look for the theater. The last time this
happened, it was due to them having agreed to another showing of a
different movie and having to find space for it. I suppose I can
understand that, but it's still annoying that they decided to cancel a movie
that literally only had three showings scheduled. I was told this wasn't
going to happen again, which makes me wonder what happened with Castle in the Sky. If they try to claim it was cancelled due to low attendance at the other Studio Ghibli Fest showings, they only have themselves to blame, since they made zero effort to market it. They didn't even have movie posters or signage at the theater announcing the showings - you had to have checked the Advanced Tickets section of the Cinemark website to know they were happening.
