That is more due to the numbskulls who run the place - as an example, Watchmen, a highly anticipated film which topped the box-office charts around the world after its release was given ONE screening at the Palace. This screening sold out without being advertised. The Palace have no plans to show the film again.
Plus the place is a grotty, smelly pit run by pensioners and staffed by surly rejects from Marilyn Manson's band.
