I wouldn't get home till at least 11pm, and then I'd have to work until late the next day. I don't live anywhere that would gather enough viewers to warrent showing it in acinema closer to me.

Great idea, but really bad coverage for people who live in country Australia (and why they're showing it on a wednesday instead of say, friday or saturday night, has got me).

My problem seems to be that people most likely won't buy the tickets unless they were already fans of RWBY, and even then not every fan is going to buy a ticket and drive to the big city to watch something already on Netflix in its entirety. And if they are trying to get people unfamiliar with the series to watch it, this might not be the way to go, and chances are it won't be refined with the time frame it's being released (animation won't be smooth, recuts won't be made, shadow people will still be there, etc.) and they won't like it (Volume 1 is not the best objectively). It just seems Awesome but Impractical from a marketing standpoint.
