I was hoping to turn my Windenburg cinema (bar) into a lot owned by a townie so that my sims could visit there and have to pay for a ticket for entry, but...
I got the Fyres family to buy the cinema, set them up with tasks and uniforms, set the ticket price, set the activities to drinking bar drinks, eating popcorn and watching movies...
I put the Fyres family back to unplayed and visited the cinema with my sims. They could go in without a ticket purchase, but could also buy a ticket if I wanted them to (my choice). I had them watch a movie on the cinema and the place was packed out but only one other sim watched a movie - and that was one of the Fyres family! ALL the other sims were crowded at the popcorn machine making and eating popcorn. And the guy I set to tend the bar was nowhere to be seen so no bar was tended. It was a washout.
Maybe it will work better if you don't put eating popcorn and drinking on the list of activities? I have a cinema on a a retail lot and some sims will watch the movies, but not all of them will eat the popcorn, even though there is a popcorn machine there. They will only eat it if they are hungry.
