That doesn't, however, mean that there will be no stupid people. Unfortunately, we can't discriminate.

Does this person not realize that strip clubs are, in fact, legal and that Edmonton has several of them? Haha…the best part about those comments: “I hope this isn’t a strip club, made legal.”

This person seems to think that the city is funding the cinema, and should instead be spending the money on other things. Obviously doesn't understand the concept of private businesses... "R. Tue, Sep 30, 08 at 12:51 PM Isn't WEM enough? Why would this city need a luxury cinema in the first place. The folks that have been asking for a Rec. Center in the south end of town get refused their request, but yet a LUXURY CINEMA gets the "OK"? Where's the justice? Doesn't this city have "bigger fish to fry"? Like perhaps feeding the poor, building schools, getting more law enforcement. Hmmm. Maybe our Mayor and others in our government need a better perspective of what the people really need. Just my opinion." This person doesn't understand the concept of demographics. They want investment in the North East, even though it's one of the poorest parts of the city, where people don't have as much disposable income to go to the cinema... "Can we get just a normal, new theatre on the north side? Oh yeah, they're putting in a mental-health and addiction facility down the street instead. All the jobs are north east, yet they put all the good places to live on the south west. City planners = FAIL." This person seems to assume "adult only" means porn... "Tammy Wed, Oct 1, 08 at 12:09 AM Adult Only ?? What on earth will they be showing, I hope this isn't a strip club, made legal. Where do they plan on getting staff, for that matter where will all the customers come from? At prices being so high at a regular theater one can just imagine what the cost will be to get into this. Edmonton just isn't the city that's ready for something like this." People are funny, in a sad kind of way The comments on http://www.canada.com/edmontonjournal/story.html?id=625d088d-6a84-49d3-8977-30028e89fa29 are so funny….
