Cinema in Growing Together

Perhaps one could be made from the objects of Movie Hangout Stuff, even though that pack only features tv set and new movies.

Oh, I think we have plenty of objects to create our own cinema. I've been thinking about making one with the new cinema object on the lot, and then attached to it, a non-rabbithole building with one or two screening rooms inside.

I also added a small screening room to the Plumbob Pictures museum (?) in Del Sol Valley, because I wanted to add a little more interest to that lot. You know how museum exhibits IRL will often have a very small screening room or two, with benches to sit, where they show documentaries about the subject of the exhibit? That's basically what I did, so that my sims can go to the film museum and watch clips of classic sims movies.

For a full cinema, I would just do a larger version of that. You could put in a lobby with a coffee bar and/or boba bar. (Or a bar bar.) We don't have a popcorn cart, but I would be shocked if someone hasn't already modded one from the popcorn maker. I'd put one or two arcade games in the lobby, and tons of movie posters. Then maybe two screening rooms with the largest tv screen and plush seats. It seems pretty straightforward.

Actually, on further thought... even without mods, you could make it a retail lot, and have the owner sim put out bowls of popcorn, ice cream cones, nachos, slices of pizza, etc., on the retail shelves or retail freezer, for sale. Then if there's not much else to do on the lot, sims will likely buy some food and then gravitate to the tv screens.

Now that I think of it, I have an art gallery that I haven't played in a while, where I put a small tv screen for watching art films (in my imagination), and I could not keep the customers away from it. So that should work just fine.
